Episodes like this one are the proof House was a character interesting and funny enough to carry the whole show by his own. I love all the episodes we got to see him outside the Hospital, they’re great.
it’s really funny because in an earlier episode house talked about his greatest inspiration was a janitor who was the best doctor in a hospital who could get away with being rude because of how good he was. such a cool parallel that he’s cleaning stuff up in that scene
yeah well, unfortunately reality is a bit different. House would go above and beyond to save a patient.... today's doctors though.... they threw the oath they swore out the window the moment that hospital management and the health agencies threatened them if they didn't support an experimental mandatory medicine that has an extremely bad trackrecord, from it's early experiments, to it's human trail where they basically lied to get emergency use authorization and thus push something extremely dangerous on people, docs know this full well, though keep their mouth shut, as they know that remdesivir is killing people in hospitals, but don't say a word as they think their jobs are more important then patient lives.

I still remember while this was airing and I was a few episodes ahead of my dad, he asked me sarcastically "so what's House up to now, treating patients in prison?" lol
@@LouiseBrooksBob It was Dr Joseph Bell, a Professor at Edinburgh University Medical School (who emphasized the importance of close observation in making a diagnosis); he was one of Doyle's teachers. While the character of the "fearsome" Professor Challenger was loosely based on Professor William Rutherford, a guest lecturer there, and Percy Fawcett, the explorer. Sir Conan Doyle actually wasn't that fond of Sherlock Holmes, as the character overshadowed all his other work in historical fiction.
You do know the place Wilson and House share is 221B right? And that Wilson's first name is James, thus his initials are JW just like John Watson? The writers intended for you to think of him as Holmes in a hospital,
I worked as a nurse in a prison for 5 years. Inmates would not have been allowed to have a cane, especially a metal one. It's a weapon. It can also be cut up and made into smaller blade like weapons called shanks. When I came to work each day, I had to place all metal objects in a locker before proceeding to the medical pod. That way an inmate couldn't pick my pocket to take objects he can use to stab someone with. In one scene, the doctor was preparing medications. Nurses do that. This show was so brilliant in many ways, yet so stupid in others. They did get one thing right. It's easy for an inmate to die in prison if they have an episode like anaphylactic shock. The cellmate (if he has one) has to call for the guard, then the guard has to call medical, then medical has to pass through the various checkpoints to reach the inmate. I had several emergency calls involving inmates having a reaction. I'm happy to say I got to them in time, but I know that on occasion, the medical team doesn't.
So even if an inmate has a trouble walking and he's not convicted for any violent crime - then he can't have a cane? What then, can he use to walk? If anything. I mean it seems like a logical precaution, but still...
Those are interesting details. I think if I was running a prison, I would come up with a way for medical response team to fast track through checkpoints, and I would probably drill on it. Though I understand you don't want violent inmates to create a medical emergency, so that they can rush a checkpoint when the medical team is passing through, so some compromise has to be made.
yes, that he could use a cane in prison was a completely obvious mistake that jumped out at me immediately of course they frequently made complete leaps into the utterly unbelievable in the hospital as well
So, what do they do in the case of an inmate like House? Force him to hobble along without a cane? I saw a guy in jail once have a wheelchair, but jail is not the same as prison.
Always found it rather hilarious that the most realistic portrayal of medicine in the entire series was in this prison clinic. A doctor refusing a definitive, unknown clinical test because it would land them in a world of trouble, and deciding to choose what's best for themselves rather than what's best for the patient.
House is boundary pusher, while ordinary doctors are not. He fills his team with people who think the same way, but this prison doctor isn't one of his, so he refuses to operate that way,
The funny thing is they're placed in that situation due to legal implications. Not only would it not be supported by Medical Administrations, but also the chance of a lawsuit is why doctors are so cautious. The unfortunate side to doctor caution can be attributed to other factors from the patient or administration, which is a shame.
@@Borsecann Possibly, but patients can claim they were under duress (stress from having their life at risk) or did not understand the situation and that the doctor did not have their best interest in mind. If the diagnosis is correct and you are saved, you praise the doctor. If the diagnosis is wrong and you are adversely affected, you sue the doctor.
Y'know what, The show could still be named "House" and it'd still fit a show about a brilliant doctor stuck in prison possibly for something he was framed for. So you have the medical angle of these prison inmates having the best doctor they'll ever get, and a detective thriller trying to solve his own case and maybe helping with other cases as well.
It wasn't named House because he lived in a House, it's because of the doctor's name. Nah, name it something like "Orange is the new Shack." Shack is slang for house/home. 😁
He says in an earlier episode, to Stacy, that he has an "obsession with shoes" he actually identifies people by their footwear a number of times through the series. One that comes to mind is the PI who started dating Cuddy after House. Can't remember his name.
I'd like to see him diagnose a man as having a cheating wife because of the dark orange tint of his skin, or a guy that suits every doctor he encounters based on the distance he travels to get diagnosed.
@@howard5992 so was chase It's a soap opera targeted to a specific demographic. That's why house says things that would get any random dude thrown in prison for sexual harassment
As brilliant as house was, there's something known as medical ethics. The doctor could be jailed for doing this even if he had taken consent from the patient
For giving a OTC medication that would only have a negative result IF this person had a hard to prove medical issue? “Do you have a headache? “. Nudge, wink. Take two. If they are not enough we will give you 2 more in a hour. He has reaction it’s confirmed. If not, who cares?
@@rpavlich "-from a patient capable of giving it" is, in legal terms, up for grabs in litigation since you have to prove that a possibly medicated patient who was suffering the symptoms of a debilitating illness was of sound-enough mind to understand the risks and give a doctor informed consent to proceed. Lawyers and malpractice firms may keep the Joseph Mengele's and Dr. Frankenstein's of the world in check but they also keep well-intentioned caregivers from taking personal risks for the sake of their patients. Sad but true.
@@rpavlich Consent however becomes a tricky thing when you're a ward/prisoner of the state. At that point, by default (though there are exceptions), you do not have the ability to give consent. That right had been revoked by a court of law. That is what makes prisons hell.
It depends. I think the reason why House can often be excused for seemingly unethical practices is because nothing is truly unethical when everything is on the line. Desperate times call for desperate measures. If a patient has a serious problem that could lead to his death in a matter of days, testing a diagnosis with a medication that could put him into shock may actually be the best option when the alternative is waiting for blood work that’s unlikely to reveal anything.
Social media has many pros and cons, but one of the things I have grown to love since becoming program director of the Osler Medical Residency is seeing pictures on Twitter of Osler residents and alumni out and about wearing their “Osler” scarf, tie, or socks on a Friday. In 1977, contemporary with the creation of the Firm System, Victor McKusick created the tradition of wearing the scarves and ties on Fridays at the suggestion of junior resident John Beary III.
The thing I like about House is that he's a medical discount Sherlock-Moriarty hybrid, way smarter than most people give him credit for but not as smart as he himself thinks he is and he's got a bit of a Moriarty mischievous mean streak.
The prison guard walking in on House doing a trachiotomy may be inspired by the novel "Doctors" by Erich Segal, but in that novel, the doctor, a black man, is beat up by cops and suffers nerve damage to his hands as a result. I am astounded that I remember this. I think I read that novel ike 30 years ago.
One of the most interesting things the writers do is use human behavior like red flags. It's absolutely true. When House is telling her so much about her rich, liberal upbringing the behaviors he quotes are spot on. We can know a lot about a person based on many of the things he quotes.
@@grizzly6018 Not quite, rather it takes extensive experience in the local culture, and deep knowledge of the profession of the subject analyzed to draw accurate and revealing conclusions from clothing worn.
I was never one to watch medical shows, but there was something about House that I just loved. To this day, it's the only medical show that I've liked.
Honestly the personal relationship drama at the hospital was the main reason I tuned out of the show… I would just fast forward to the interesting medical bits… would’ve taken a whole series based off his adventures in prison without all the extras getting in the way
It's the state of modern medicine that doctor's are terrified of lawyers and the legal system, and for very good reason. They can be wiped out overnight. I've had medical work done in Thailand the Philippines, and I will tell you that it's better quality and 1/10th the price as in the US.
0:53 -- HOUSE: "It's lupus." ("And you're an idiot for diagnosing it wrong.") 5:30 -- ALSO HOUSE: "It's not lupus." House is always right eventually--after first being wrong, often multiple times about the same patient. And he's always condescending to every one ELSE who is ever wrong (and sometimes when they are right). And that is (partly) why we love him.
Haven’t watched this series in years, but having seen this and reminded me of how is character always insisted upon the fact that he went into medicine because it was a challenge and kept him engaged when the truth of it is, he did so because he truly does care about Human life
I love that House here does a tracheotomy with an ink pen just as Clooney did on ER, and then they eventually were in a movie together. Kindred spirits.
I knew it wasn't lupus, but not because of his previous statements about lupus. I knew it wasn't lupus because the first two diagnoses in every episode were wrong. It was never until at least the third diagnosis that he got the answer.
After watching this webseries..i learnt abt 1. Lupus 2. Mrsa 3. Vasculitis 4. Mastocytosis 5. Negleria 6. Cancer (obviously) 7. Bechet's 8. Staph infection 9. Gullian Barre 10. Thymus ... And many more. 😆 .. Time to start a clinic practice 😅
The Sherlock-Holmes-like deduction at 3:44 gives me chills every time. House's character was indeed inspired by Sherlock but in this particular scene is their similarity the most obvious. Excellent touch!
If you were an actual doctor, and you have some guy acting like a genius yet he acts so extremely condescending and cocky when he says "It's [Insert thing here]" only to walk into your office the next day and be like "... It's not [insert thing here]" and this happens multiple days in a row? Surprised he wasn't kicked out sooner.
House never gets old. I put it on every night to go to sleep. There will never be another character that captures a narcissistic genius quite like Dr. House.
The word narcissistic gets thrown around too easily these days. Yes, he had some narcissistic qualities yet he did not have narcissistic personality disorder otherwise he wouldn't risk his life/freedom/job again and again to save his patients. Yes, he is mainly motivated by desire to solve puzzles but he still cares about saving lives too.
Want to know a very easy way of telling if someone is not a doctor? Watch how they use a stethoscope. 7:04. See what I mean. For doctors put stethoscope on is like wearing your shoes, sure on the odd occasion you put it on incorrectly but you correct it straight away. Trust me backward stethoscope is neither comfortable or able to hear well.
House performing a traechostomy with a ballpoint pen is so on brand for his flagrant disregard for actual medical procedure. Surely theres an emergency epipen somewhere that wont take as long to get.
I notice that one of the primary ways this show conveys to the audience that a female doctor is competent, is that she plays along with House’s wiseass remarks. Doubly so if those remarks happen to veer into straight up sexual harassment
Episodes like this one are the proof House was a character interesting and funny enough to carry the whole show by his own. I love all the episodes we got to see him outside the Hospital, they’re great.

Omg i didn't notice that..awesome! 😂
I didn't realize that was Steve Urkel! Wow!
That voice was instantly recognizeable... and you meant Stefon Urkell!😄
glad im not the only one that caught that
Thanks for confirming, I was like: "Wait, that's Steve Urkel!" xD
The thing I like about House is that he's a medical discount Sherlock-Moriarty hybrid, way smarter than most people give him credit for but not as smart as he himself thinks he is and he's got a bit of a Moriarty mischievous mean streak.
Nah, that's not a mean streak, that's just bluntness mixed with indifference.
A fantastic series that keeps evolving into a better product . He is a believable Star and captivating.
She had no idea how big of a deal getting house to say "thats a good idea" actually was.
The prison guard walking in on House doing a trachiotomy may be inspired by the novel "Doctors" by Erich Segal, but in that novel, the doctor, a black man, is beat up by cops and suffers nerve damage to his hands as a result.
I am astounded that I remember this. I think I read that novel ike 30 years ago.
I was a big fan of Segal, ever since Love Story. 'Doctors' and 'Acts of Faith' were my other two favourites.
You remember it because of the grotesque nature the guards handled the situation in the book
Yep, same here. Loved the book.
House needed to analyze how Erkel found himself in prison, the main question of the episode requiring his expertise.
0:53 OMG I can't believe it's actually lupus plus Stefan Urquelle on the wrong side of the law
No way, it's never lupus
It's *never* lupus
If you watch the whole clip, he'll literally say it isn't lupus lol
But it has happen magician case was only time
That's right, it's NEVER lupus! 😂
5:32 IT'S NEVER LUPUS
One of the most interesting things the writers do is use human behavior like red flags. It's absolutely true. When House is telling her so much about her rich, liberal upbringing the behaviors he quotes are spot on. We can know a lot about a person based on many of the things he quotes.
in other words DO judge a book by its cover only today's society are too soy boy to admit that
@@grizzly6018 Well in most cases yes but there always are people with bad luck or different lives then the people around them
@@grizzly6018 Not quite, rather it takes extensive experience in the local culture, and deep knowledge of the profession of the subject analyzed to draw accurate and revealing conclusions from clothing worn.
@@grizzly6018 some covers are pretty obvious, like yours reveals every political belief you ever had as you come from a mould
UA-cam armchair psychoanalysts:
"You can tell how it be, based on the way how it Do."
I was never one to watch medical shows, but there was something about House that I just loved. To this day, it's the only medical show that I've liked.
I have all seasons on dvd think I’ll rewatch them. Just loved that show. Something has to keep me busy till theChosen start season 3!!
0:52 no, it can't be, ITS NEVER LUPS
House's problem is that he hates himself for actually caring about other people.
He cares about solving the problem.
@@tabularasa0606 At least that's what he tells himself.
I think he does care he just hate dealing with other people
It is funny that changing the setting to a prison didn't really change the show that much.
Honestly the personal relationship drama at the hospital was the main reason I tuned out of the show… I would just fast forward to the interesting medical bits… would’ve taken a whole series based off his adventures in prison without all the extras getting in the way
It's the state of modern medicine that doctor's are terrified of lawyers and the legal system, and for very good reason. They can be wiped out overnight. I've had medical work done in Thailand the Philippines, and I will tell you that it's better quality and 1/10th the price as in the US.
0:53 -- HOUSE: "It's lupus." ("And you're an idiot for diagnosing it wrong.")
5:30 -- ALSO HOUSE: "It's not lupus."
House is always right eventually--after first being wrong, often multiple times about the same patient.
And he's always condescending to every one ELSE who is ever wrong (and sometimes when they are right).
And that is (partly) why we love him.
He has to be wrong first otherwise it would be 5 minute episodes
This has probably got to be one of the best haircuts House ever had on the show.
in case you all didnt recognize him. the guy he's haggling for Vicodin for played steve urkel in family matters.
I was surprised to see Steve Urkel at 4:45 in this episode. (Jaleel White)
House used to be a doctor is like saying someone used to be a Marine.
You win the internet today! o7
I don't get it. Could you please explain?
@@rugvedkulkarni1593 "Once a marine always a marine" is the saying. although honestly really not true
This seems like a really good episode
So did they figure out what was wrong and save the guys life or what? I thought I saw them all and don't remember this one!
I'd like to know as well!
yes, they did. Don't remember the diagnosis though.
@@altuzarraok It was Mastocytosis. House was right
Haven’t watched this series in years, but having seen this and reminded me of how is character always insisted upon the fact that he went into medicine because it was a challenge and kept him engaged when the truth of it is, he did so because he truly does care about Human life
THIS WAS MY FAVORITE TV SERIES !!! HOUSE AND THE CAST CHEMISTRY IS SOMETHING MAGICAL .
Seeing House talk with Jaleel White makes me think he's having a conversation with Sonic the Hedgehog.
House analyzing her like Sherlock walking into a room 😂
The lighting and cinematography here is outstanding.
"I am peepless". I almost wish I was just so I could say this 😂
Imagine if House made the time to cut to the chase and physically observe his patients early in the process. We wouldn't have a show, of course.
I love that House here does a tracheotomy with an ink pen just as Clooney did on ER, and then they eventually were in a movie together. Kindred spirits.
House is one of the best Sherlock Holmes inspired characters ever.
If there is one thing I have learned from watching medical shows it's that it is never ever lupus.
I knew it wasn't lupus, but not because of his previous statements about lupus. I knew it wasn't lupus because the first two diagnoses in every episode were wrong. It was never until at least the third diagnosis that he got the answer.
I didn't expect "Did I do that?" Here!
I can't here her without thinking of Amata waking me up in Vault 101.
Woah 🤯 All this time, I never even realised she played Amata
She is also the girlfriend in the movie Cloverfield and remake Ranger Walker's crush
Easily one of the best doctor drama series ever
After watching this webseries..i learnt abt
1. Lupus
2. Mrsa
3. Vasculitis
4. Mastocytosis
5. Negleria
6. Cancer (obviously)
7. Bechet's
8. Staph infection
9. Gullian Barre
10. Thymus ...
And many more.
😆 ..
Time to start a clinic practice 😅
The Sherlock-Holmes-like deduction at 3:44 gives me chills every time. House's character was indeed inspired by Sherlock but in this particular scene is their similarity the most obvious. Excellent touch!
If you were an actual doctor, and you have some guy acting like a genius yet he acts so extremely condescending and cocky when he says "It's [Insert thing here]" only to walk into your office the next day and be like "... It's not [insert thing here]" and this happens multiple days in a row? Surprised he wasn't kicked out sooner.
She did look him up and know about his works
I guess there is a Proof store 😂
Cameron, Thirteen and Adams were gorgeous
REAL
I did hate the repetition of him being 100% certain and ending up wrong at least 2-3 times every episode.
This reminds me of me. Drs not testing for stuff because "it's rare"
I wanted House to get meds from Urkel the supply dude and then hear him go "Did I do that?!" as he gave him meds
House is always 100% sure the diagnosis is his current theory, until it's suddenly ruled out and he's 100% sure it's something else.
Good enough for prison work. Reminds me of my Navy days, getting boxes of food labeled "not fit for prison consumption."
It's never Lupus 🤣
Odette Annable must have the perfect symmetry and proportions in facial features. Her face is breathtaking. Yes, even more than Olivia Wilde.
She was truly classic on the tv series Supergirl, awesome
@@scottpeterson7500REALL,PLUS THE WAY SHE WAS INTRODUCED ON HOUSE WAS AMAZING HONESTLY
I don't think House would be permitted a walking stick in prison.
5:00 is that Jaleel white?
Yep!
Odette Annabel tell me she wouldn't drive the inmates over the edge! That hospital ward would have a waiting line around the block!
House never gets old. I put it on every night to go to sleep. There will never be another character that captures a narcissistic genius quite like Dr. House.
The word narcissistic gets thrown around too easily these days. Yes, he had some narcissistic qualities yet he did not have narcissistic personality disorder otherwise he wouldn't risk his life/freedom/job again and again to save his patients. Yes, he is mainly motivated by desire to solve puzzles but he still cares about saving lives too.
Want to know a very easy way of telling if someone is not a doctor? Watch how they use a stethoscope. 7:04. See what I mean. For doctors put stethoscope on is like wearing your shoes, sure on the odd occasion you put it on incorrectly but you correct it straight away. Trust me backward stethoscope is neither comfortable or able to hear well.
House performing a traechostomy with a ballpoint pen is so on brand for his flagrant disregard for actual medical procedure. Surely theres an emergency epipen somewhere that wont take as long to get.
I notice that one of the primary ways this show conveys to the audience that a female doctor is competent, is that she plays along with House’s wiseass remarks. Doubly so if those remarks happen to veer into straight up sexual harassment
Did I miss an episode? How is he is prision?
He drove his car into Cudies living room
you missed the finale of season 7, looks like
He tried to "kill" Cuddy.
He tried to steal some dogs
You know, he got caught doing one of the crimes the show was always showing him doing.
I hate this. Too many doctors are all about their own egos.
Their training has to change, because they sacrifice lives to their own pride.
That Actress Doctor is beautiful
and extremely boring.
Her name is Odette Annabel
@@babyamom2004 Tha was the point, bc she is bored with the job.
you can watch her sexiness' in BANSHEE another series
Didn't think I'd see Urkel inside selling grilled cheese and girly mags to get by😂😂😂
It's Lupus. It's always Lupus.
House=Holmes Wilson=Watson
This world is ruled by cowards. This episode illustrates this very well.
There should've been more jail House's episodes
