"(KNOCKING AT DOOR)" "(SIGHS) Who is it?" "It's Tom." "Tom, your husband?" "What's he doing here?" "Uh, what's going on?" "I'm sorry." "I know I'm not supposed to be here." "But Evelyn's school contract is due tomorrow." "I knew I was forgetting something." "Let me find a pen." "(CLEARING THROAT)" "Hey." "Hey." "Not quite sure what Emily Post recommends in this situation, but I'm Tom." "Damien." "Hi." "Sorry to intrude, I just..." "I wasn't quite sure when she'd be coming home." "No problem." "Thank you so much for catching this." "Yeah." "I'll get out of your way." "It was good to meet you, and I'll see you later, hon." "Bye." "(DOOR CLOSES)" "So, he seems like a nice guy." "(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)" "Ooh." "Jules, you okay?" "No, my stomach..." "Here, lie down." "(GROANING) Ow!" "Try to..." "Get Tom." "Okay." "Ow!" "DAMIEN:" "Tom!" "(PANTING)" "You know what would be perfect?" "Hmm." "French Toast Tower." "You still go to Mickey's?" "What's your cholesterol?" "It's my one vice." "I'm keeping it." "As much as I would love to clog my arteries," "I have a 10:00 CT, and I still have to race home, get changed." "Maybe you could keep some clothes here." "Maybe I could." "He's just trying to get into your skirts, and I don't mean metaphorically." "Well, he's got the legs for it." "So, I will see you tonight?" "Yeah." "Bye, House." "Have a nice day." ""Have a nice day"?" "How civilized." "I said I'd stay out of it." "What?" "Nothing." "Clearly something." "Nope." "House, on a list of your attributes, there's nothing that even rhymes with "coy."" "Okay, I may have seen something in the fridge." "Like the end of your relationship." "She put the milk in the door and not on the shelf." "It's not a big deal." "You hate that she did that, but you didn't say anything." "(LAUGHS)" "You're trying to get us to fight." "No, I'm trying to help." "If you got an issue, let her know." "I should've known that you weren't done sabotaging this." "Fine." "Stew in your irritation." "Sure, last time it bubbled over into resentment and rage, leading ultimately to a painful divorce that neither of you have ever really recovered from, but I'm sure this time, it'll be great." "Interesting case, 35-year-old woman with fever and abdominal pain." "ER ruled out all the usual suspects." "Stop before you interest me to death." "And she's in an open marriage." "That's not interesting." "It's just weird." "HOUSE:" "Know what's weirder?" "That other humans are monogamous in the first place." "No other species on the planet mates for life, and if you're gonna bring up swans, they cheat like everybody else." "They just have better PR than rabbits." "Animals also eat their young and kill their rivals." "That make it weird that most of us don't?" "Says the guy whose opposable thumbs have been all over how many women who aren't his wife?" "A functional open marriage is like a unicorn." "It's a mythical creature that doesn't exist." "Someone always ends up unhappy." "Our patient's unhappy because she's suffering from an intestinal blockage." "Boring." "Now, I'm gonna have to find a reason to rule it out." "What about herpes colitis?" "She picks up the infection from one of her partners." "It takes root in her colon." "STD panel was clean." "Chances are this couple was unhappy in the first place." "This is their attempt to save something that never..." "Go on." "Herpes might not register if she was exposed in the last six weeks." "But it would show up on a barium enema." "Wait." "You're going to do it?" "Gotta see if our patient is a unicorn or just a slutty horse." "Think how much fun Taub could be having." "HOUSE:" "Barium coats the inner lining of your colon, lets us get a good look at it on the X-ray." "I can get somebody else to pick up Evelyn." "I feel like I'm abandoning you." "I'm on painkillers." "I'd rather this not be what you think of every time you look at my butt." "Okay, roll onto your side." "It's fill 'er up time." "(EXHALES)" "So, is Evelyn his new squeeze?" "She's our daughter." "Must be interesting, growing up in a production of Oh!" "Calcutta!" "She's six." "She knows as much about our sex life as any other kid her age." "You can explain that she's the reason the two of you stayed married." "You've been in the room five minutes." "You got us all figured out." "Of course, you left out the part where we love each other, and we wanna grow old together." "But you just don't wanna be young together." "Look, when you think about it, tons of couples do what we do." "It's just that with most of them, one spouse doesn't know about it." "We decided things work better when people tell each other the truth." "Tank's full." "I'll page the radiology elves." "I'm not saying I hate it." "It just doesn't go with your eyes." "You hate it." "Little bit." "Any more heartless critiques of my general appearance?" "MAYA:" "Nope." "All done." "So, is she as bendy as she looks?" "Maya and I are just friends." "No, you and I are friends." "And you don't have coffee with me three times a week." "She's an interesting person." "She grew up in Ohio." "She has three brothers." "Fascinating." "Last week that Cambodian lab tech was telling us how he survived the Killing Fields, and you left to go get a donut." "So we flirt." "It's fun." "It's dangerous." "That woman would totally do you." "You think?" "Nothing is gonna happen." "All I'm saying is, if you want to be on a diet, you might want to stop hanging out by the dessert cart." "X-ray was clean." "She doesn't have herpes colitis." "Or abdominal pain." "TAUB:" "It stopped hurting during the X-ray, which means it was just an intestinal blockage that passed." "We should discharge her." "Absolutely, there's no need to find any underlying cause." "These things never happen twice." "Take her digestive system for a test drive." "Give her a radio-opaque milkshake." "X-ray every 15 minutes to see if it makes any unscheduled stops on the way through." "We'll be here all night." "No, Taub will be here all night." "Go talk to the unicorn, then tell me you don't believe." "I did an abdominal CT on a kid today, and found a six-inch bezoar made entirely of gum." "I mean, who gives a three-year-old an endless supply of gum..." "You okay?" "Yeah." "I mean, there was hair in it and maybe a piece of paper." "So, how long have you been married?" "One of the few drawbacks of having an open marriage." "Nobody ever asks me about current events or the weather." "The Yankees look good this season." "(LAUGHING)" "Seven years." "And how long have you, you know..." "After three years, we realized that traditional marriage was making us both miserable." "Most people get divorced at that point." "Yeah, we didn't want to get divorced." "We still loved each other." "We just realized that expecting one person to fulfill all of your needs forever is unrealistic." "There are happy monogamous couples out there." "Sure, one or two have the perfect marriage." "Everybody else has figured out how to settle for less." "I don't want to settle and end up resenting my husband." "I'd rather get the 10% he doesn't give me somewhere else so that I can really appreciate him for the 90% he does." "(HEART MONITOR BEEPING)" "I think something's wrong." "With your stomach?" "My heart is racing." "(MONITOR BEEPING FASTER)" "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "Try to take deep breaths." "I'm gonna try to slow your heart down." "Is this because of the blockage?" "No." "It's not working." "(MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY)" "Need a crash cart in here!" "CHASE:" "I need a list of all your sexual partners from the last six months." "Why?" "Your wife had an arrhythmia." "The progression of symptoms from bowel to heart makes a parasitic infection most likely." "Since Julia hasn't been out of the country..." "The only place that I've been recently is a business trip to Nebraska." "But either of you could have picked up a bug from one of your partners." "(SIGHS)" "It's kind of complicated." "How many partners are we talking about?" "Ballpark." "None." "None?" "We have a great sex life." "I don't need anyone else." "So why not just tell her that and close this whole thing up?" "You married?" "(STUTTERING) I was." "Did you ever agree to go see a chick flick with your wife or pretend to enjoy classical music?" "Stravinsky never groped my wife in a Midtown hotel room." "She needs this." "I don't, but I don't want her to feel bad about that." "HOUSE:" "He's lying." "CHASE:" "Guy's got a license to drill." "Why would he lie about not using it?" "That's not the lie." "The lie is that he gives a crap how his wife feels." "If they're both screwing around, that's one thing." "But she has a piece on the side, and he doesn't?" "The only way he'd be okay with that is if he's betraying her in some other way." "Then in his mind, it makes them even." "My unicorn isn't a unicorn." "It's a donkey with a plunger stuck to its face." "Right, even a guy who's not cheating is doing it for underhanded reasons." "No, no, no, he's not being cynical." "He's assuming the husband is doing something to even the score." "Which means he thinks there is a score." "Which means, cheating swans aside," "House believes in monogamy." "He's being romantic." "What I believe is that men are genetically engineered to be jealous." "Doesn't matter if I think there's a score." "I guarantee you he does." "Any of the wife's partners pan out?" "She's been with two people other than Tom in the last six months." "Neither of them have been outside the Tri-State area." "So we're back to the husband." "You just said you believed he wasn't..." "He's doing something behind her back." "What better cover than a business trip to Nebraska?" "Like that's really a place." "CHASE:" "Let's find his travel records and get back to work." "You seem pretty mellow about this couple's deal." "Thought you'd be first in line to shake a finger." "They're still married." "I'm not." "Not that I could ever do it." "I was jealous of House, and Cameron never touched him." "Not counting the emotional fondling." "When my mom was dying, my dad had an affair." "He told you this?" "I'd seen them get out of his car." "Two years after Mom died, they got married." "Must've sucked." "At the time, yeah, but looking back, it makes sense." "My mom never knew about it, and he needed someone to make him feel less alone." "He took care of my mom, day in and day out, for two and a half years before she died." "He was devoted to her." "Loving someone else didn't change that." "So loving two people at once is fine as long as one of them is dying?" "Whoever's taking care of me when I get sick," "I hope they've got someone else to take care of them." "Tom was telling the truth." "He really did go to Nebraska." "Plane ticket and restaurant receipts." "THIRTEEN:" "Forget Nebraska." "Maybe they just bought their parasites at the mall." "You know, we should really throw away that loofah." "They're imported." "Sometimes they're not sterilized." "We think our patient got amoebiasis from hers." "She going to be okay?" "We're treating now." "She should be fine." "It's actually kind of bizarre." "She and her husband have an open marriage." "They sleep with other people?" "Well, she does." "Her husband's totally fine with it." "That's crazy, right?" "And you're bringing this up because..." "I thought it was interesting." "More interesting than your other cases, I guess." "You talk about your colleagues." "You rant about House." "You don't usually mention your patients." "Is open marriage something you want?" "No." "I mean..." "I know you'd never... (SIGHS)" "All this time and energy you spent convincing me you weren't cheating." "And there's somebody else." "I'm not..." "WAITER:" "Would you like some more water, sir?" "Okay." "There's a woman at work." "People say she's attracted to me." "But nothing's happened." "Nothing's going to happen." "I'm not having an affair." "But you want to." "No, honey, I'm trying to be honest." "I don't want to make the same mistakes." "Be honest then." "Are you attracted to her?" "Look, she's attractive." "There's an attraction." "Aren't there men who make you feel that way?" "Of course, there are." "But it never occurs to me to act on it, because I'm married." "To you." "And that's enough for me." "Aren't I enough for you?" "Of course, you are." "(PAGER BEEPING)" "Our patient's lost all movement in her legs." "There are other doctors, Chris." "We're talking." "I'm sorry." "The woman's paralyzed." "I'll get a cab." "TAUB:" "Tests show no spinal cord injury, no cerebral lesions, no hemorrhage." "CHASE:" "We finally got a stool sample." "The loofah's innocent." "No sign of amoebas or any other parasite." "So paralysis, arrhythmia, intermittent abdominal pain." "And he nicked himself shaving." "Sorry, that was Taub." "But it was easier to solve." "Means he used the crappy razor in his locker, which means he slept here." "Thanks to you." "I brought up open marriage with Rachel." "It was a disaster." "On the medical front, we've knocked out sex and foreign travel." "Could be an electrolyte imbalance." "So the only time you're not interested in my marriage is after you blow it up?" "You were the moron who took marital advice from Tila Tequila." "You pushed me into this." "Figured it would either blow up your marriage or make it more honest." "Either way, you win." "What about sex?" "I'm talking about the patient." "Is that cool with everybody?" "We ruled out sex." "We ruled out sex with other people." "Tom said he and Julia have been doing it three or four times a week." "And she's got boys on the side." "Increased libido can be a symptom of adrenocortical carcinoma, which also explains her other symptoms." "A woman who likes sex must be sick?" "HOUSE:" "Just because everybody in this room wishes that all women were horny all the time doesn't make it so." "Get an MRI of her adrenal glands." "Hi." "Okay if I take the sports page?" "WILSON:" "Sure." "Would you mind using a coaster?" "Oh." "Sure." "Sorry." "It's okay." "Also, it'd be great if you'd replace the toilet paper when you finish a roll." "And when you load the dishwasher, you can't put a big, flat bowl on the bottom." "It traps the water so nothing on the top gets clean." "And please don't throw banana peels in the bedroom trash..." "I haven't done any of those things." "You're probably not even aware..." "I hate bananas." "Oh, my God." "It was House." "I'm sorry." "He's been trying to get us to fight." "Why would he think that stuff would make us fight?" "Because of the milk." "You put it in the door." "The body of the refrigerator is the coldest part." "The temperature in the door fluctuates, which decreases shelf life..." "Wow." "When did you get all OCD?" "I just want clean dishes and unspoiled milk so we can all stay healthy." "Oh." "It's about health?" "What about the coaster?" "Does that replenish my B12 or something?" "Can we just drop it?" "Sure." "You have this list of annoyances the entire time we were married?" "Get better, Mommy." "I love you, rabbit." "Julia, you have a guest." "Hi." "This isn't a good time." "Dr. Hadley, did you say there was a video game in the playroom?" "Maybe you can teach me how to play one of them?" "See you in Radiology." "Get out of my wife's room." "Your relationship with her stays out of our space." "I was worried about her." "Tom's right." "You should go." "So it's fine if we have sex, but if I drop by to see if you're okay..." "This is our family." "Sorry." "I spent two years of residency wearing shirts that were a size too small." "How hard is it to ask me not to put them in the dryer?" "And I only did your laundry because you were never home." "I didn't ask you to." "Of course you didn't." "You just got annoyed whenever you didn't have clean underwear." "I never said I was annoyed." "That's the point." "You didn't say anything." "So I'm getting a lecture on communication from someone who had her lawyer inform me our marriage was over." "Asking for an open marriage." "You got stones." "Conversation sort of got away from me." "It was a train wreck." "I think it's good you brought it up." "I read a study that found men who have multiple copies of a certain vasopressin receptor are twice as likely to be unfaithful." "Maybe you're just one of those guys." "So my cheating is biologically predetermined." "Fantastic." "Multiply times five." "We need a better look at the medulla." "I thought you'd be relieved." "This gets you off the hook." "It's just genetics." "I'm 5'6" and have a receding hairline." "I hate genetics." "Medulla's clean." "I don't see you wearing lifts or hair plugs." "That's because being short and bald doesn't hurt anybody." "The only thing hurtful about your other genetic predisposition is that you keep denying it." "It's not good for you or Rachel." "There's nothing there." "It's not adrenal cancer." "And maybe you're right about me, but I'm not going to stop trying." "Rachel's worth it." "Look up there." "The lung." "What is that?" "You served me with divorce papers in the middle of a medical conference in New Orleans!" "I threw a bottle into an antique mirror." "You exhibited an emotion." "I wish I'd known you were capable." "I loved you." "I thought I was gonna be following you to Baltimore, remember?" "I called about apartments." "I set up interviews." "How could you think that we still had a real marriage?" "We hadn't had a conversation in months." "Maybe because I was working two jobs to support us." "No!" "No, it's because when you were home, it was like talking to a block of ice." "You were obviously so pissed off at me..." "I was killing myself so that you could take that non-paying internship." "That you said that I should take." "I was trying to be supportive!" "Why do I have to be the bad guy?" "Expressing yourself does not make you the bad guy." "Okay, then, you were being a selfish bitch." "(SCOFFS)" "VIQ scan confirmed the spot on Julia's lung was a clot." "Think there's a chance the husband's a plushie?" "If he has a secret, I highly doubt it's more relevant than the clot." "Clotting disorder would explain everything." "(DOOR OPENS)" "Question is, which one?" "Do you read any of your departmental memos?" "Only the ones labeled NSFW." "Accounting notified you two days ago about your patient's insurance." "Sorry." "That's NNSFW." "Here." "He doesn't have any." "Try not to bankrupt them." "I'm long past the number of procedures that'll bankrupt them." "Julia's got insurance." "I saw the policy number on the forms." "The policy lapsed due to non-payment." "I already made three calls about this." "She should have been aware of that." "No, that's just a mistake." "Of course we have health insurance." "We're actually a little behind on the premiums." "But I pulled money out of my retirement account to cover it." "They said that we'll be fine in a few..." "Why the retirement account?" "We'll just give you a few minutes to..." "By "we," she means "she."" "I lost all of our savings." "Sounds like a secret to me." "I started her on heparin to prevent further clots, but we still don't know what's going on." "Of course the husband's secret was money." "If it's not sex, it's always money." "Unless it's sex for money." "How did he lose it anyway?" "It's not medically relevant." "You're not going to care." "Wilson's been teaching me how to care." "Try me." "He builds wind turbines and leases them out to local power companies..." "You're right." "I don't care." "Clotting disorder." "DIC, Factor V Leiden, Antiphospholipid syndrome." "Vitamin K deficiency also fits, causes thrombophilia and is consistent with abdominal pain." "(DOOR OPENS)" "Congratulations, House." "Sam ended it." "What happened?" "Go test our patient's blood." "It can wait five minutes." "For everything we discussed." "(SIGHS)" "I'm sorry." "Well, at least you're actually taking responsibility for once in your life." "I'm sorry that she left, but it's not my fault." "I didn't even want to get involved." "You dragged it out of me." "(SCOFFS)" "What about the dishwasher and the banana?" "Yeah, she left because of the banana." "I just wanted you to stand up for yourself, tell her what you want." "If doing that causes her to walk out for the second time, well, then your relationship wasn't going to last anyway." "Or you could've stayed out of it." "I could've kept my mouth shut, been annoyed sometimes, but I'd be happy, because I'd still be with her." "Now all I have is cold milk." "As long as you're free, you want to grab some dinner?" "THIRTEEN:" "Did Tom go home for the night?" "For starters." "I told him to leave." "I don't want him here." "Money is a complicated subject." "Yeah, it's not the money." "I mean, the money is bad, but... (SIGHS)" "When we first opened our marriage," "I got involved with a guy who lied about being single." "And one day, his wife calls me." "She's crying, and screaming, and totally out of control." "And I felt superior." "I thought, "I don't ever have to worry about feeling this way," ""because Tom and I are honest with each other."" "Well, here I am." "Hi." "Sorry I didn't make it home last night." "I needed to run some tests." "You know what the worst part was when you had your affair?" "It wasn't the sex." "It was the lies." "Realizing that the narrative of my life was totally wrong." "You weren't stuck in surgery." "You weren't out of town." "I don't wanna go through that again." "I told you, nothing's going..." "Thursday nights." "You have to be home by midnight." "You don't bring her here, you don't talk to her about me, and I don't want to meet her ever in any context." "Are you giving me permission to sleep with other women?" "It's what you want, isn't it?" "I want you." "No, you want more than me." "You want that thrill." "But I love you, and I really believe that you love me." "And we have a good life together." "And at this point, either I walk away, or I try to accept who you really are." "Tomorrow's Thursday." "Yes, it is." "THIRTEEN:" "All our tests came back negative." "It's not a clotting disorder." "Which means we need to come up with a better idea." "So what causes problems in the stomach, heart, nerves..." "Oh, my God." "You know what it is?" "(SNIFFING)" "Taub's wife gave the green light for an open marriage." "He's wearing cologne but not the stink of shame." "You've got a date?" "I am going out with Maya tonight with Rachel's blessing." "Mazel tov?" "Maybe the problem isn't her blood." "Maybe it's the vessels carrying the blood." "No sign of schistocytes or hemolysis." "So you're actually going to sleep with another woman, then go home to your wife?" "Thank God someone's keeping us focused on what's really important." "Taub was going to do all of that anyway." "Pulmonary arterial hypertension?" "Imaging showed normal diameter in her pulmonary artery." "Here's a thought." "Taub's wife is now totally on the market." "Mind hitting me with her digits?" "(PAGERS BEEPING)" "She would love that, but duty calls." "(GROANING)" "(MONITOR BEEPING)" "What's the matter?" "My stomach." "Same pain as before?" "Yeah." "Worse." "Get the portable ultrasound in here." "We need to get a look at her belly." "Help me." "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "HOUSE:" "Pain, pain went away, came back another day." "Question is, what brought it back?" "Physical exam was unrevealing." "Ultrasound was clean." "So afterwards, you gonna shower at your girlfriend's or at home?" "Patient." "Abdominal pain." "Yeah, he's right." "Let's get this wrapped up before 6:00." "Taub turns back into a faithful pumpkin at midnight." "The patient was out with her boy-toy before she came in." "Maybe the pain was triggered by sexual excitement." "Because lying alone in a hospital bed, contemplating bankruptcy?" "Hot." "My point was that arousal is a function of the parasympathetic nervous system." "If that's where the problem is, the pain could be triggered by crying, which seems..." "PNS also controls digestion, which she's been doing without screaming her head off since she's been here." "What if what matters isn't when the pain started, but when it stopped?" "It was during an X-ray." "You think that cured her?" "No, but House prepped her for the X-ray with a barium enema." "That wouldn't treat anything except..." "Go." "You're in pain because part of your intestine folded in on itself." "It's called an intussusception." "It's cutting off blood flow." "We need to fix it before your bowel gets necrotic and dies." "Once you do that, will I get better?" "When this happens in adults, it's usually a sign of abdominal cancer." "We'll fix the overlap, and then search your intestine for tumors." "(WHOOSHING)" "Foam?" "I have a bad feeling about this." "A friend can't spontaneously buy an overpriced Italian espresso machine for another friend?" "What did you do?" "Nothing, that's the beauty." "I genuinely tried to help Wilson." "I told him to stand up for himself, which you know is legitimate advice." "And his relationship blew up." "Is he okay?" "He'll be fine." "Point is, I realized something." "I do nice things, nice things happen to me." "Karma works." "So you're paying it forward?" "If this should somehow lead to Lucas dying or oral sex, so be it." "(GREETING IN hindi)" "You think I should wear a tie tonight?" "This isn't weird at all." "CHASE:" "I mean, where's Rachel eating tonight?" "TAUB:" "Home." "What if she's going out, too?" "She's allowed to, right?" "Of course, it's only fair." "But I don't think she will." "Your wife only eats dinner at home?" "If she did go out, that'd be tough." "But I think I can handle it." "Don't do it unless you're sure." "I know I'd rather be jealous than a liar." "Got something here." "Kelly clamp and scalpel." "CHASE:" "Biopsy showed non-specific inflammation, which suggests IBD." "Only that doesn't explain the cardiac problems." "Or her declining kidney function." "We ran panels during surgery." "Actually, IBD does make sense, 'cause it can trigger ankylosing spondylitis, which would explain the heart and the kidneys." "Start her on sulfasalazine and TNF-inhibitors." "And Taub, I'm not gonna see you before you head off for Gomorrah." "(ELEVATOR DOOR OPENS)" "Just remember, if you get disoriented," "(PAGER BEEPS)" "Breathe through your nose and look for the horizon." "I can't." "I really thought I could do this." "Logically, it makes perfect sense." "But all afternoon, all I kept thinking about was the two of you together," "and you touching her..." "Nothing's happened." "It's okay." "I'm sorry." "(SOBBING) 'Cause I really wanted..." "No." "I've been an idiot." "I don't need anything else." "I just need you." "You mean that?" "I do." "(SOBBING)" "I love you, Rachel." "I love you, too." "Let's go home." "Is that okay?" "There are other doctors." "FOREMAN:" "The treatment's not working." "Her left kidney failed last night." "The other one's right behind it." "It's not ankylosing spondylitis." "Kidney biopsy showed she had IgA nephropathy, which could be caused by or associated with any of these conditions." "We've gone from too few ideas to too many, and our patient is running out of time." "Why the lack of afterglow?" "Physio girl not as freaky as you'd hoped?" "I went home with my wife." "(EXHALES)" "After all that?" "You chickened out." "I can't hurt Rachel like that." "Sickle cell anemia would've shown on blood tests." "No flattened intestinal villi rules out celiac..." "Seriously?" "(LAUGHS)" "Our patient is dying, and we can't move past my sex life?" "Seriously?" "You think it'd kill her if we spent 15 seconds mocking you?" "Time's up." "FOREMAN:" "Normal liver enzymes rules out Hep B and cirrhosis." "Alport and Anti-GBM antibody are both untreatable, so if she has them, we can't help her." "And it can't be Henoch-Schonlein purpura." "No inciting respiratory infection and no rash." "I don't care what it's not." "I wanna know what it could be." "Well, everything left on the list." "The list was not created equal." "Neither was man, by the way." "Hemochromatosis is a possibility." "Excess iron builds up, causes problems throughout the body." "Weil's Syndrome also affects multiple organ systems." "And it wouldn't have been treated by the antibiotic the ER gave her." "Sarcoidosis makes sense, too." "Good." "Treat for those three." "I think you should call Tom." "Am I going to die?" "I don't know." "If he walked in here right now," "I'd look at his face, and all I would think is "liar."" "Don't you think that's kind of unfair?" "You say honesty is all-important, but you conveniently ignore the truth that some truths hurt people." "Tom lied to protect you." "He was covering his ass." "I'm not talking about the money." "Tom hasn't slept with anyone else in over a year." "He told you that?" "So my entire marriage is a sham." "No." "Your husband, who only wants you, lied so that you could be happy." "That seems pretty real to me." "(KNOCKING AT DOOR)" "Yeah?" "Hey." "Hey." "Listen, I'm sorry." "Me, too." "I shouldn't have said..." "No." "You were right." "I was selfish back then."
