" Then why'd you let her go do it?" " Because the hospital is her baby, and her baby's sick." "If she doesn't solve this soon, her head's gonna explode, and I don't want to get any on me." "So let's figure out what's in the haystack." " Differential diagnosis, people." " Parasite." " It's spreading too quickly." " Next?" " Virus?" " The kids are too sick, and the blood tests showed no lymphocytosis." "And they're not responding to acyclovir or ribavirin." "If it's some other virus, we'll never find it in time anyway." "Which leads us to bacterial infection." "It's not responding to broad-spectrum antibiotics, so we've got something resistant." " The usual suspects?" " MRSA." "It's always MRSA in hospitals." "Maybe contaminated food or water source." "Pseudomonas." "V.R.E.?" ""H" flu." "Okay." "Those are the big ones." "Cultures will take 48 hours." "Might as well be postmortem."

"Um, I had a cold last month, and I told the doctors about it." "Honey, this has nothing to do with you." "Kim's right." "Your son was born healthy." "He caught the infection after his birth." "There's no reason to think that he caught it from you." "But you don't know." "I mean, you don't know how he got sick." "Pretty standard question-- "How sick is my child?" You couldn't answer." "I answered." "You rattled off numbers-- B.P., O2 sats." "It's not what they need to know." "What they need to know is the future." "You got a Magic 8 ball?"

"You can put your arms down." "Can you do anything about it?" "Only for about a month or so." "After that it becomes illegal to remove, except in a couple states." "Illegal?" "But don't worry." "Many women learn to embrace this parasite." "They name it, dress it up in tiny clothes, arrange playdates with other parasites." " Playdates?" " It has your eyes." "But that's impossible." "Well, I assume you weren't getting your period." "Maybe that should have given you an inkling." "But I'm on this birth control implant." "Yeah, I know." "I saw the scar on your arm." "And my doctor said I might not get any periods at all if it was working." "Mm-hmm." "Interestingly enough, you also don't get any periods if it isn't working, which is why you were supposed to get regular pregnancy tests." "Oh!" "I'm gonna send a nurse in here to schedule your prenatal care." "You're due in about five months, so start planning the shower." "Um, Doctor?" "Please, me and my husband wanted to have a kid soon, but, oh, God, like four months ago, we had this really big fight." "He moved out." "I did something stupid." "One-night stand?" "Ex-boyfriend." "Well, I'll schedule you a paternity test too." "I can't let my husband know." "Does the old boyfriend look like your husband?" "Yeah." "Then just have the kid." "He'll never know." "The most successful marriages are based on lies." "You're off to a great start." "Well, you look cheery." "What's going on?" "The Hartig and Chen-Lupino babies, their kidneys are shutting down." "And the urine tests show no casts." "Which means the antibiotics are causing the kidney failure." "You're the nephrologist." "Which one did it?" "We'll take 'em off that one." " Don't tell me both vancomycin and aztreonam." " They both can cause this." "There's no way to know which one it is." "No test." "We can't take 'em off the antibiotics though." "They'll die of the infection." "If we leave them on both the antibiotics, they'll die of kidney failure." "So, we take our best guess then." "Which drug's causing the kidney failure?" "It's like I said, it's always MRSA in hospitals." "Take them off aztreonam." "I still think it's the pseudomonas." "I vote to take them off the vancomycin." "There's no point in guessing." "Take one kid off vancomycin, the other off aztreonam." " They have the same disease." "You want to give them different treatments?" " What the hell are you doing?" " Therapeutic trial, to find the cause of the infection." " That's wrong." "We have four sick kids at least." " Who knows how many more haven't started showing symptoms yet?" " We have a duty to these two." "If these two have different reactions, we'll know how to save the rest." "So you're condemning one of these kids to die based on random chance?" "I guess I am." "[ Babies Crying ]" "[ Cuddy ] So you're going to flip a coin?" "That's how you decide which baby lives?" "Can I borrow a quarter?" "Do you want to get sued, lose your license, House?"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa." "Hold on there, slick." "We didn't all go to law school." "Your advice is that I should use medical reasons to make medical decisions?" "Hmm, that's not gonna be as easy." "Any medical justification." "It doesn't need to be a good one." "Well, "Hartig" sounds Jewish, so does aztreonam, so we'll take the Hartig kid off vancomycin." "How's that?" " You can't experiment on babies." " Doctors experiment all the time." " On adults, with their consent." " Fine." "I'll get the parents' consent." "Their informed consent." "They have to know the other kid is getting a different treatment." "Sorry." "Can't do that." "It would be unethical for one patient to know about another patient's treatment." " They have a right to know." " If they know, they won't consent." "That defeats the whole purpose." "That's their right." "Two more babies have just become symptomatic." "I defer to your legal wisdom." "Which takes precedence-- six dying babies or a missing consent form?" "You can't do it." "Do what you think is best." "Your daughter's kidneys are shutting down." "Your son's kidneys are failing." "So we're going to take her off the aztreonam." "We're taking him off vancomycin." "Uh, but what-- what made her sick in the first place?" " What do you think is causing it?" " It seems to be a germ called pseudomonas." "We think it's MRSA-- Methicillin-resistant staph aureus." "It's a very resistant form of a very common bacteria." "We're hoping the aztreonam will clear it up." "Vancomycin is the best treatment for MRSA, so we're gonna keep giving it to her." "Is it gonna cure her?" "Your child is very sick." "You need to know that." "This is a Hail Mary pass." "It might cure her." "It might not." "So-So, that'll cure him?" "We'll know in 24 hours if it's working." "What did you tell them?" "I told them the truth." "They seemed relieved." "Did you tell them how sick their son is?" "I explained what was going on." "Allison, their baby's dying." "If the parents weren't in tears by the time you left, you didn't tell them the truth." "That's not how I see it." "Do you want them blindsided?" "Want them coming up and saying, "My God, my baby died." "Why didn't you warn me?"" "So now it's about worrying about them yelling at us?" "No." "It's about getting them prepared for the likely death of their child." "If their son dies tomorrow, you think they'll give a damn what I said to them today?" "It's not gonna matter." "They're not gonna care." "Nothing's gonna be the same ever again." "Just give those poor women a few hours of hope." "Dr. House!" "Oh, no." "Dr. House, this is my husband, Charlie." "Who told you where my office was?" "Jill, come on." "He obviously doesn't want us bothering him." "Ooh, I was trying to hide it."

"Oh, just some baby formula being stored under a sink with a dripping faucet." "Tap water contamination." "You thinking pseudomonas infection?" "I was." "I wasted a couple of hours chasing it down." "But, ofcourse, the formula hasn't been anywhere near the babies." "Huh." "Whatever idiot stored them there" "All right, we'll figure it out." "Just-Just calm down." "I am calm." "Let me know when you're gonna need it." "Oh, come-- I warned you." "I did that calmly." "Hey." "Hi." "She any better?" "Uh, her fever has been stable the last hour." "We're not gonna make it, are we?" "Sorry?" "Me and Ethan." "Our next-door neighbor, her little boy died in a car crash, and she and her husband split up, like, four months after the funeral."
