00:07:55,712 --> 00:07:57,412
I'm thirsty.

163
00:07:57,497 --> 00:07:58,630
That's normal.

164
00:07:58,698 --> 00:08:00,532
You've been in a coma
for several hours.

165
00:08:00,583 --> 00:08:02,134
Can you tell me your name?

166
00:08:02,201 --> 00:08:03,368
Uh, Bill.

167
00:08:03,419 --> 00:08:05,804
Bill Koppelman.

168
00:08:05,871 --> 00:08:07,389
Can you tell me
what happened to me?

169
00:08:07,473 --> 00:08:09,174
<i>We're treating you</i>
<i>for an overactive thyroid.</i>

170
00:08:09,225 --> 00:08:11,310
We think that's why you
passed out and couldn't move.

171
00:08:11,377 --> 00:08:12,544
Can you wiggle
your fingers for me?

172
00:08:14,597 --> 00:08:16,098
Is he going to be
okay?

173
00:08:16,182 --> 00:08:18,350
Excuse me, but only
family members are allowed.

174
00:08:18,401 --> 00:08:20,552
It's okay.

175
00:08:20,603 --> 00:08:22,988
<i>They're my students.</i>

176
00:08:23,055 --> 00:08:25,574
Everyone back at school
is so worried about you.

177
00:08:25,658 --> 00:08:27,743
Is he sick
because of the explosion?

178
00:08:29,696 --> 00:08:30,729
What explosion?
What explosion?

179
00:08:30,780 --> 00:08:32,898
What explosion?

180
00:08:32,966 --> 00:08:34,933
A chemistry demonstration
he was doing

181
00:08:35,001 --> 00:08:36,368
for his class
went wrong.

182
00:08:36,419 --> 00:08:38,003
Why was it not already
in the patient history?

183
00:08:38,071 --> 00:08:41,206
Because the patient
was unconscious.

184
00:08:41,257 --> 00:08:43,809
But I'm assuming
Dr. House spoke to the wife.

185
00:08:43,876 --> 00:08:45,377
The wife didn't know
about the explosion.

186
00:08:45,428 --> 00:08:47,412
And I was the one
who questioned her,

187
00:08:47,463 --> 00:08:48,630
so, if there was
an oversight,

188
00:08:48,715 --> 00:08:52,417
it was mine.

189
00:08:52,468 --> 00:08:55,604
Does Dr. House not attach
importance to patient histories?

190
00:08:55,688 --> 00:08:57,189
No, he thinks
they're crucial.

191
00:08:57,256 --> 00:08:59,224
He just doesn't think
being in the same room

192
00:08:59,275 --> 00:09:01,943
as the patient is crucial.

193
00:09:02,028 --> 00:09:04,863
House thinks avoiding
patients

194
00:09:04,930 --> 00:09:08,934
allows him to stay
as objective as possible.

195
00:09:09,002 --> 00:09:12,237
He's not wrong.

196
00:09:12,288 --> 00:09:15,324
Sounds like a very diplomatic
way of saying he's lazy.

197
00:09:15,408 --> 00:09:17,209
That's also true.

198
00:09:17,276 --> 00:09:18,927
Either way, I'm covered.

199
00:09:18,995 --> 00:09:20,796
If you want
an accurate patient history,

200
00:09:20,863 --> 00:09:22,047
don't ever talk
to the patient.

201
00:09:22,115 --> 00:09:24,499
Everybody lies.

202
00:09:24,584 --> 00:09:26,668
Except me.

203
00:09:26,753 --> 00:09:27,952
To you.

204
00:09:28,004 --> 00:09:30,055
Would never do that.

205
00:09:30,123 --> 00:09:31,840
Okay.
Say you're right.

206
00:09:31,924 --> 00:09:35,060
If you had actually been
in the room,

207
00:09:35,127 --> 00:09:36,461
questioning the patient,

208
00:09:36,529 --> 00:09:38,063
you could read body language,

209
00:09:38,130 --> 00:09:40,098
you could ask
follow-up questions,

210
00:09:40,149 --> 00:09:43,935
warn him of the costs
of lying to you.

211
00:09:43,986 --> 00:09:45,821
Don't forget the thumbscrews.

212
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,441
Can you dispute
the possibility that,

213
00:09:49,492 --> 00:09:51,193
had you visited
the patient sooner,

214
00:09:51,277 --> 00:09:52,728
maybe talked to the wife,

215
00:09:52,795 --> 00:09:54,546
been directed
to one of the students,

216
00:09:54,614 --> 00:09:57,416
that this case might have ended
very differently?

217
00:09:59,152 --> 00:10:02,671
(Bill)
It wasn't exactly an explosion.

218
00:10:02,755 --> 00:10:04,539
It was a controlled reaction

219
00:10:04,624 --> 00:10:07,008
that went a little haywire.

220
00:10:07,093 --> 00:10:08,827
It was too an explosion.

221
00:10:08,878 --> 00:10:11,296
Simon Harris filmed the whole
thing on his camera phone

222
00:10:11,347 --> 00:10:13,382
and posted it on YouTube.

223
00:10:13,466 --> 00:10:15,600
It got, like, over 75,000 hits
already.

224
00:10:15,668 --> 00:10:17,602
Looks like
you've gone viral, Hon.

225
00:10:17,670 --> 00:10:20,806
[Coughs]

226
00:10:22,392 --> 00:10:23,842
(House)
He had a loss of consciousness,

227
00:10:23,893 --> 00:10:26,645
temporary paralysis...

228
00:10:26,696 --> 00:10:29,648
But when I was told
the patient coughed up blood,

229
00:10:29,699 --> 00:10:32,451
then things really started
to get interesting.

230
00:10:35,788 --> 00:10:39,124
Your patient was doubled over
in pain and coughing up blood,

231
00:10:39,191 --> 00:10:40,892
and you found that interesting?

232
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,861
Why, is that bad?

233
00:10:45,631 --> 00:10:47,582
It's interesting.

234
00:10:52,911 --> 00:10:55,620
I do this demonstration
every year.

235
00:10:55,623 --> 00:10:58,008
<i>I usually have a student aide</i>
<i>help me set it up,</i>

236
00:10:58,092 --> 00:11:01,428
<i>and apparently this year he</i>
<i>added extra hydrofluoric acid,</i>

237
00:11:01,495 --> 00:11:03,964
which is why it exploded.

238
00:11:04,015 --> 00:11:05,899
The student aide was just trying
to make a viral video,

239
00:11:05,967 --> 00:11:07,251
not hurt anyone.

240
00:11:07,318 --> 00:11:09,770
Ended up doing both.

241
00:11:09,838 --> 00:11:12,222
So we figured the patient
inhaled the extra large dose

242
00:11:12,290 --> 00:11:13,774
of hydrofluoric acid and...

243
00:11:13,841 --> 00:11:15,025
Burned his lungs,

244
00:11:15,109 --> 00:11:16,310
which is why
he coughed up blood.

245
00:11:16,361 --> 00:11:17,561
If only burnt lungs explained

246
00:11:17,645 --> 00:11:19,313
the passing out and paralysis.

247
00:11:19,364 --> 00:11:21,348
The explosion does.
Check out the video again.

248
00:11:21,399 --> 00:11:22,733
He smacked his head
against the wall.

249
00:11:22,817 --> 00:11:25,185
If that caused swelling
in his brainstem,

250
00:11:25,236 --> 00:11:26,987
that would have led
to eventual loss

251
00:11:27,038 --> 00:11:28,689
of consciousness
and paralysis.

252
00:11:28,756 --> 00:11:31,625
So we discussed it
a little longer,

253
00:11:31,692 --> 00:11:35,662
and House decided
to treat with Heparin.

254
00:11:37,665 --> 00:11:41,335
I wouldn't mind
a couple more details.

255
00:11:41,386 --> 00:11:43,871
It was aerosolized Heparin.

256
00:11:43,938 --> 00:11:46,640
You skipped
over the actual DDX,

257
00:11:46,707 --> 00:11:49,276
and now you're averting
your eyes.

258
00:11:49,344 --> 00:11:51,545
I'm growing more
and more curious by the moment.

259
00:11:56,067 --> 00:11:57,717
He smacked his head
against the wall.

260
00:11:57,769 --> 00:12:00,020
If that caused swelling
in his brainstem,

261
00:12:00,071 --> 00:12:01,655
that would have led
to eventual loss

262
00:12:01,722 --> 00:12:03,824
of consciousness
and paralysis.

263
00:12:03,891 --> 00:12:04,891
- <i>[Muffled] Nobody move.</i>
- Aagh!

264
00:12:06,444 --> 00:12:07,494
He--he had on a what?

265
00:12:07,561 --> 00:12:09,229
Gas mask.

266
00:12:14,535 --> 00:12:16,903
The stink bomb
was Chase's.

267
00:12:16,955 --> 00:12:19,906
He was getting revenge
for the orange hair

268
00:12:19,958 --> 00:12:22,542
and rigged it
in House's office.

269
00:12:22,594 --> 00:12:26,813
But House found it.

270
00:12:26,881 --> 00:12:28,448
Mm-hmm.

271
00:12:30,918 --> 00:12:32,552
You can leave
when I have an answer.

272
00:12:32,604 --> 00:12:34,271
It might help
if we knew the question.

273
00:12:34,355 --> 00:12:35,472
How do we treat

274
00:12:35,556 --> 00:12:38,591
chemical burns
inside the lungs?

275
00:12:38,643 --> 00:12:41,228
Maybe we can use
a bronchoalveolar lavage

276
00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:42,446
<i>to wash 'em out</i>
<i>with water.</i>

277
00:12:42,530 --> 00:12:44,481
Sorry. My fault.
Should have clarified.

278
00:12:44,565 --> 00:12:46,533
How do we treat chemical burns

279
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,318
inside the lungs
without killing the patient?

280
00:12:48,403 --> 00:12:51,771
Silver sulfadiazine
works well on chemical burns.

281
00:12:51,823 --> 00:12:53,790
Burn cream would drown him
faster than water.

282
00:12:53,875 --> 00:12:56,877
Well?

283
00:12:56,944 --> 00:12:58,712
Aerosolized Heparin.

284
00:13:00,948 --> 00:13:02,282
Me likey.

285
00:13:02,333 --> 00:13:03,917
<i>(Park)</i>
<i>But that's only experimental.</i>

286
00:13:03,968 --> 00:13:05,100
It's never actually
been used before.

287
00:13:05,125 --> 00:13:06,169
Not true.

288
00:13:06,170 --> 00:13:07,554
Been used in sheep.

289
00:13:07,622 --> 00:13:10,157
Uh-huh.

290
00:13:12,677 --> 00:13:14,794
The guy was going downhill
fast.

291
00:13:14,846 --> 00:13:16,963
We needed a treatment
that was a...

292
00:13:17,015 --> 00:13:18,365
Slope changer.

293
00:13:18,433 --> 00:13:20,200
So you busted out
the sulfur dioxide stink bomb?

294
00:13:20,268 --> 00:13:22,352
It was a team-building exercise.

295
00:13:22,437 --> 00:13:24,304
No. It was manipulation.

296
00:13:24,355 --> 00:13:26,239
You were pressuring your team
into coming up

297
00:13:26,307 --> 00:13:28,608
with unsafe medical ideas
just to get out of that room.

298
00:13:28,660 --> 00:13:33,613
You say pressure,
I say inspire.

299
00:13:33,665 --> 00:13:35,832
The usual safe ideas
were not gonna work.

300
00:13:35,917 --> 00:13:37,367
Aerosolized Heparin might.

301
00:13:37,452 --> 00:13:39,052
And everyone else
just went along with this?

302
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,654
No.

303
00:13:40,722 --> 00:13:44,491
I told House I thought
it was a mistake.

304
00:13:44,542 --> 00:13:46,026
And those were
your exact words?

305
00:13:46,094 --> 00:13:49,629
I think
I might have said insane.

306
00:13:49,697 --> 00:13:51,932
You thought it was insane,
and yet you let it happen.

307
00:13:51,999 --> 00:13:53,500
No, I--
if you disagree

308
00:13:53,568 --> 00:13:54,667
with Dr. House
on patient safety, Doctor,

309
00:13:54,719 --> 00:13:56,553
it is your duty
to speak up.

310
00:13:56,637 --> 00:13:58,055
Otherwise, you are equally
to blame.

311
00:13:58,139 --> 00:13:59,206
I did speak up.
I tried.

312
00:13:59,273 --> 00:14:02,192
And you failed.

313
00:14:02,276 --> 00:14:05,278
And that's why
I went to Dr. Foreman.

314
00:14:09,901 --> 00:14:11,101
The Heparin could cause
the patient to bleed

315
00:14:11,169 --> 00:14:13,019
into his lungs even faster.

316
00:14:13,071 --> 00:14:14,504
It is crazy,

317
00:14:14,572 --> 00:14:17,040
but House doesn't do crazy
just for crazy's sake.

318
00:14:17,125 --> 00:14:20,577
If he thinks this is the only
way to help your patient...

319
00:14:25,049 --> 00:14:27,250
<i>(Cofield) You did not tell me</i>
<i>you were involved in this case</i>

320
00:14:27,335 --> 00:14:29,503
when you
asked me to do this.

321
00:14:29,554 --> 00:14:31,505
I wasn't.

322
00:14:31,572 --> 00:14:32,956
The Heparin decision

323
00:14:33,024 --> 00:14:35,976
didn't have anything to do
with the outcome.

324
00:14:36,044 --> 00:14:38,929
If signing off on everything
House does is a pattern,

325
00:14:38,996 --> 00:14:40,931
it affects
the way House behaves,

326
00:14:41,015 --> 00:14:43,049
it affects the way
House's team reacts

327
00:14:43,101 --> 00:14:44,434
to the way House behaves.

328
00:14:44,519 --> 00:14:47,554
House...

329
00:14:47,605 --> 00:14:49,589
is brilliant.

330
00:14:49,657 --> 00:14:52,325
I give him the benefit
of the doubt most of the time

331
00:14:52,393 --> 00:14:54,244
because I've seen
what he can do.

332
00:14:54,328 --> 00:14:55,662
Getting House out of prison

333
00:14:55,729 --> 00:14:57,581
is the biggest decision
you've made as Dean of Medicine,

334
00:14:57,665 --> 00:14:59,399
right?

335
00:14:59,450 --> 00:15:02,169
And if he's suspended
as a result of this hearing,

336
00:15:02,236 --> 00:15:05,756
he violates his parole
and he goes back.

337
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:10,010
And that probably leaves you
as former Dean of Medicine.

338
00:15:10,077 --> 00:15:14,181
I suppose so.

339
00:15:14,248 --> 00:15:16,316
You didn't choose me
to oversee this

340
00:15:16,384 --> 00:15:18,151
because you thought
I could be objective.

341
00:15:18,219 --> 00:15:21,221
You chose me because
you thought I'd have your back

342
00:15:21,289 --> 00:15:23,356
and I'd think twice
about making a decision

343
00:15:23,424 --> 00:15:26,443
that would get you fired.

344
00:15:28,146 --> 00:15:30,263
Eric.

345
00:15:30,314 --> 00:15:31,765
I'm sorry.

346
00:15:31,833 --> 00:15:34,568
But if your
get-House-out-of-jail-free

347
00:15:34,635 --> 00:15:37,671
experiment
blows up in your face,

348
00:15:37,738 --> 00:15:41,441
it's not my job
to get you out of it.

349
00:15:47,717 --> 00:15:49,222
After you'd administered
the Heparin,

350
00:15:49,224 --> 00:15:50,675
I see there was a discharge
order on the chart,

351
00:15:50,726 --> 00:15:52,810
and yet the patient
never left.

352
00:15:52,878 --> 00:15:55,430
House ordered
a therapeutic bath first

353
00:15:55,514 --> 00:15:58,766
to wash off any residual
chemicals from the blast.

354
00:15:58,851 --> 00:16:00,651
But we wound up
finding something.

355
00:16:00,719 --> 00:16:02,403
You have a bit of a rash.

356
00:16:02,488 --> 00:16:04,272
Can you raise
both your arms?

357
00:16:04,356 --> 00:16:07,158
I just need to see
how far it goes.

358
00:16:09,361 --> 00:16:11,496
<i>(Bill) You told me</i>
<i>i was going to be okay.</i>

359
00:16:11,563 --> 00:16:14,582
And now there's
still something wrong with me.

360
00:16:14,666 --> 00:16:16,667
It probably doesn't mean
anything,

361
00:16:16,735 --> 00:16:19,253
but we want to
make sure.

362
00:16:19,338 --> 00:16:21,255
Of course you do.

363
00:16:21,340 --> 00:16:23,240
I got to get out of here,
okay?

364
00:16:23,292 --> 00:16:24,625
Just relax.

365
00:16:24,710 --> 00:16:26,294
Please just let me
get out of here.

366
00:16:26,378 --> 00:16:27,512
It'll just take a minute.

367
00:16:27,579 --> 00:16:29,647
We just need to get
a good look at the rash.

368
00:16:29,715 --> 00:16:31,048
The rash?
That was nothing.

369
00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:35,269
Just some irritation
from lying in bed all day.

370
00:16:35,354 --> 00:16:37,438
The problem
was the patient's brain.

371
00:16:37,523 --> 00:16:39,107
He freaked out.

372
00:16:39,191 --> 00:16:40,925
I got to--I got to get out.

373
00:16:40,976 --> 00:16:42,560
I got to get out of here.

374
00:16:42,611 --> 00:16:44,612
"Freak out" is a little strong.

375
00:16:44,696 --> 00:16:46,614
In my opinion at the time,

376
00:16:46,698 --> 00:16:49,117
it was the rash
that was gonna kill him.

377
00:16:49,201 --> 00:16:50,568
Invasive strep.

378
00:16:50,619 --> 00:16:52,370
Reasonable theory,
supported by the evidence.

379
00:16:52,437 --> 00:16:54,906
The evidence pointed
to psychosis.

380
00:16:54,957 --> 00:16:56,824
We caused it
by giving him steroids

381
00:16:56,909 --> 00:16:58,159
when he first came in.

382
00:16:58,243 --> 00:16:59,944
What'd you think?

383
00:16:59,995 --> 00:17:02,296
I thought Park and Adams
were both right

384
00:17:02,381 --> 00:17:04,615
but that their conclusions
were both wrong.

385
00:17:04,666 --> 00:17:07,335
The neuro symptoms
and the rash were both signs

386
00:17:07,419 --> 00:17:08,786
of an underlying disease.

387
00:17:08,837 --> 00:17:14,425
Together with the lung,
it added up to Wegener's.

388
00:17:14,476 --> 00:17:18,930
How does Dr. House handle it
when three smart doctors

389
00:17:18,981 --> 00:17:21,682
come up with three different
but equally valid ideas?

390
00:17:21,767 --> 00:17:24,018
I run a diagnostic trial.

391
00:17:29,441 --> 00:17:31,659
Start the patient
on high-dose steroids.

392

<i>Multiple birds,</i>
<i>single stone.</i>

<i>If Taub is right, then he</i>
<i>will walk out of here cured.</i>

394
00:17:38,283 --> 00:17:40,001
<i>If Adams is right,</i>
<i>he'll spike a fever,</i>

395
00:17:40,085 --> 00:17:41,452
get hypotensive,
we can treat it.

396
00:17:41,503 --> 00:17:43,204
He can walk out of here cured.

397
00:17:43,288 --> 00:17:44,872
If Park is right,

398
00:17:44,957 --> 00:17:46,374
he goes all <i>Cuckoo's Nest</i>
on us,

399
00:17:46,458 --> 00:17:48,626
we can cross "brain"
off the list,

400
00:17:48,677 --> 00:17:50,661
diagnose him, and he can walk
out of here cured.

401
00:17:50,712 --> 00:17:52,380
Are you trying
to make this easy for me?

402
00:17:52,464 --> 00:17:53,798
By your own admission,

403
00:17:53,866 --> 00:17:55,333
if you give
the patient steroids,

404
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,635
two of the three outcomes
are gonna make him worse.

405
00:17:57,686 --> 00:17:58,519
What was making
the patient worse

406
00:17:58,604 --> 00:18:00,304
was not having a diagnosis.

407
00:18:00,355 --> 00:18:02,139
This was the fastest way
to get it.

408
00:18:02,191 --> 00:18:04,442
It was a perfect
diagnostic moment.

409
00:18:04,509 --> 00:18:06,978
In light of what happened,

410
00:18:07,029 --> 00:18:10,314
you still think it was
the perfect diagnostic moment?

411
00:18:13,351 --> 00:18:15,069
Yes.

412
00:18:15,153 --> 00:18:18,789
My theory accounted
for all the medical outcomes.

413

It did not account for
the disobedience of my own team.

But you agree that empathy
is a useful quality for doctors?

We all knew
a psychotic episode

of the three possible outcomes.

to answer that very question.

577

I don't think
it was anyone's fault.

but I wasn't distracted.

I'm gonna walk again,
