House likes the son for obvious reasons. He's young yet very responsible and mature. He's doing everything he can to take notes, pay attention to everything a doctor says. Trying to take care of his mother and himself at an age when it should be the other way around. He was even being honest with the doctors about most stuff other than his age and only because he couldn't reveal that. Poor kid is handling something well than most adults twice his age would struggle with. And he's not getting an inch of praise or recognition from anyone (in the show anyway) for it. House could see all that in an instant.
He also likes the kid because he's straight to the point. When he told the kid to go to the cafeteria and get a sandwich for him, there wasn't an unnecessary back and forth. When he told the kid he's gonna test his mom, he didn't argue and trusted them.
As someone who had two severely mentally ill parents...I can tell you his future isn't as bright as the show depicts. There's a reason its considered bad for a child to parent a parent. It can and will most likely cause him all sorts of problems when it comes to adapting to the world. Particularly when it comes to having healthy adult relationships. An example? What happens when someone whose used to being a parent to an adult tries to have a healthy adult relationship? Most likely he will fall into the role he was 'born' to play. That of parent to a parent. I know that's what destroyed my adult relationships...though I still have my parents. One has end stage renal failure the other cancer.
You know it's sad how you'll always see cases like this irl where the kid grows up way too quick. I had friends who became responsible taking care of the family by the time they were in middle school/high school, due to either dads leaving, dead, deadbeat, etc. whatever the case may be that they left the family for. In most cases they just dipped out on the family, and only some cases of them dead.
I guess it's because they are more honest and open with their opinions and don't try to manipulate their thoughts or speech patterns to suit their surroundings. At least, not until they are close to adulthood. Well, most kids anyway. Well, most young kids anyway.
@@csgollum i am pretty sure from the writers' standpoint it was more a "the kids aren't old enough to expect from them to not be stupid, while adults should have learned by now and are thus at fault for their stupidity". House hates/punishes people for being worse than they could be.
The irony is that House is sarcastically berating the other doctor for making the assumption that she's a drunk without confirming by tests, when he could literally write the book on that one 😂
he likes him because the kid is in a permenent and awful situation and decided to stay beside his mom even if it will ruin his future. House hates bulshit and fake heroism, the kid is a legit example of a good human being, which are rare among his patients and families.
My grandmother had schizophrenia, she'd get so irrational and even very aggressive, she'd often make a mess of herself too. It was a nightmare, but I do really miss her
@@musical_lolu4811 House said "hold the pickles" when rattling off the order. I figured she was just echoing what she heard from House. Either illogically, or reminding her son of what House said in his order.
One main thing they got wrong is that most of the patients that went to House don't have the profile to afford the health insurance that would cover such treatments, let alone pay all the medical bills on their own. This was set in the US afterall.
I like how Wilson understand House's emotional side (hatred and fascination) and Chase understand his intelluctual side (likes crazy because it not boring).
the way house politely treated the kid so nicely because he understood he was under so much pressure, and ushered him to go take a break and eat, because he deserved it.
The rest of the episode- Cameron, chase and foremen have different theories all wrong. House thought a vitamin k deficiency. Chase thought that there’s so way it’s just vitamin k so they did an ultrasound found tumour. Cancer. They shrunk it with ethanol because she couldn’t get the surgery (schizophrenia and the tumour was too big). Surgery went through and was successful. Then cps was called on the kid (the kid was 15) the mum called. House thinks she was too old when she presented with schizophrenia. House calls everyone back to the table and they discuss what it could be they come to Wilson’s disease (genetic caused, build up of copper) it can be diagnosed with an eye test (yellow rings found around the coloured part of the eye). They get rid of the copper build up, boom cured. Patient and son reunite and the end.
I actually spent the time to watch the entire show after watching a number of these videos. Phenomenal show. Watching these clips knowing how everything goes is a sweet kind of reminiscence.
I know right. I watched it in 2015-16 and after going through hundreds of these vids on here remembering how amazing this show is, I'll probably rewatch it again next year.
I used to looooove House, low key inspired me to go to med school, then I became a doctor, now I can't even watch it anymore. Then I think this is how everyone must feel about TV centered around their profession. They get inspired by it ultimately to realize its all total bullshit. Moral of the story if you like House, don't become a doctor.
"Nice kid... How much do you really drink?" In the first five seconds with the patient he tells her a huge amount of important information about himself: He doesn't waste time with pleasantries and won't say or do anything to spare her feelings or get her to like him. He considers her a lucid person who can understand and answer a question about her daily habits. He's perceptive about her secrets and is demanding honesty from her. He actually thinks her son is a good person and sees a need to tell her so. For this, he gets eye-contact. He has her attention now.
And in the end it wasn't the alcohol. "no one believes me" because every doctor assumed alcohol was a primary cause and "Lively Lucy never lies to lucas", she only drank what her son gave her and nothing more.
I love that about characters like House. They may not be polite the way the others are but they’re also respectful the way the others aren’t. House is rude to many people but when it comes to the schizophrenic mom, he talks to her as an equal, meanwhile Foreman while polite to most people, calls her crazy and says she “thinks bad”. Also super important, he doesn’t suddenly dismiss her when she says something seemingly random, he realizes she misheard him and repeats himself.
@@Invictus13666 I believe that. But to be amazed at his behavior when Chase and Wilson, two of the people who ended up knowing him best, spelled it out in the episode is strange.
House treating people with mental disorders that make them different and ostracised contrasts so well with his way of seeing people. And the great apreciation he has for the compassion and care of the child really is a part of him that the others do not get to see. He does not like to show It, but He cares, that much is clear.
I had lung thrombosis at age 24. Actually hundreds of small blood clots in my lung. I could barely breath for a week. They did every possible test you can imagine, at the end no one had an answer to how, why, why so young did it happen. House would have a field day with that case.
It can happen at any age really, and birth control is a major cause in young patients. Also alcohol, smoking, diabetes, sedentary lifestyle, and blood clotting disorders.
One of the things I liked about this episode was how House almost immediately acted as of the kid was part of the team, and only acted hostile to him when he needed to save his image of his mother
Love House in the early seasons. You can tell how fascinated he is with the mother and I even detect empathy from him here. He would never say it but he does in fact care. Hugh Laurie does such an excellent job! I don't know how he manages to pull you in but He does! I think I can relate to House's character in some ways as I am a black and white thinker and always am trying to figure things out and "solve the puzzle" if you will. I think that's why I love the character so much.
“No one believes me..” “I do.” I absolutely love those lines, just Dr. House, normally grumpy and rude, always factual and no filter. But his tone and the way he says shows a truly empathetic side to him. Not to mention the bits and pieces of the true HER coming in via quick statements with a more True Tone to it
I found this heartwarming. This had nothing to do with house enjoying puzzles, it had everything to do with house wanting to help someone who everyone else was willing to write off as a lost cause. The original Dr. was just willing to say “she’s drunk, get her outta here” which obviously bothered house, who takes the case and finds out she has Wilson’s disease and cures her, bringing son and mother back together.
This was the first episode where I really saw, for the first time, that House cares alot. Not just the "he cares so much, but he covers it up with sarcasm to not risk getting hurt" or whatever, but really saw how much he cares about those who deserve and need that care and are in their most vulnerable; he just doesn't have the patience or time for people that jerk him around and waste his time.
"You take what he tells you to take." He doesn't say it as a question, as though he's already decided that he knows she's lying. It's a statement, that he wants her to know that he believes she does.
indeed, foreman had the qualities to make him great, but lacked this very expression towards learning (ironic that he would learn from cover to cover; but not approach to approach [re: House school of medicine])
This is complete bullshit, because foreman was the most resourceful character on the show when it came to out-of-the-box thinking for tests and other procedures when the proper way would take too long.
@@JordanReedYT sure, that’s why he’s good as dean. his strength and creativity is for tasks and procedures, not the imagination and self challenge skills of diagnosis. the show surprised me by slowly developing chase for that evolving intelligence instead. i admit i dismissed him just bc he was pretty, which is pretty bad of me.
@@nurainiarsad7395 Forman was the first person House would ask to explain to the team why their idea is incorrect AND all the teams throughout the show relied on if House wasn’t available.
its pretty poor representation of schizophrenia though. my uncle was diagnosed 'paranoid schizophrenic'. it was profoundly debilitating. he refused to take medications, couldnt hold down a job, and spent the majority of his life homeless, hitchhiking around the country, in and out of jail, etc. but he was never incoherent, or rambling random meaningless gibberish like this woman. a stranger talking to him would know he wasnt right in the head, and he would pursue some really strange or inappropriate topics, but they would still be able to have a conversation with him.
@@easterworshipper5579 Tbf she didn't have schizophrenia, she had Wilson's disease. No idea how that presents or if this is a good representation of that, though.
House through sarcasm smacked the first doctor as deserved and pointed out the doctor's inadequacy. Good for House. Plus, he wanted to and did get the patient and saved her life. Good show, literally! :)
season 1 of house really was the best season. House had a certain humanity to him, through the coldness and cynicism that's sorely lacking in the other seasons. He ends up becoming a sociopath and narcissist and his redeeming qualities get replaced with spontaneity and witty cruelty.
One thing that was cut off from this, immediately after House says 'Nice kid', it cuts to Foreman and he's nodding his head in agreement and looks down. Kinda rare tiny moment you'd blink and miss in the show. One of those moments where House isn't being sarcastic, and Foreman looks like he's thinking the same thing as House. Poor kid has it rough.
😍 I was so obsessed with this episode, Lines in the Sand, Skin Deep, Sleeping Dogs Lie, and The Jerk when I started watching House but then it just kept getting better!!! Truly brilliant show. 👏
I was in and out of hospitals taking care of my mom for over a decade as a kid and teenager. I always wished I could've dealt with someone like house, most doctors who were brilliant and actually helped my mom had similar mannerisms to House just a lot less miserable.
Laurie and the others on the team are extraordinary actors. Only the very best are cast in such a series. But actors act what writers write. And the writing here is over the top brilliant. The medical material, terminology and hospital settings are spot on. The classical, literary, artistic and musical allusions, coupled with superb delivery, gritty sarcasm, and in your face humor, make the character repartee downright riveting and electric. Kudos to the greats who wrote this excellent series, and to the director(s) who envisioned the outcome.
At first Chase seems like a teacher 's pet to House, later when he started to improve in his career and have his own way of doing the job, he started to act on par with House. House foster the dude right.
3:17 H: “We don’t even know how to treat it, come on, fumigation of the vagina?!” W: “I- a little louder, I don’t think everyone heard you…” God… I love these two’s conversations.
This House from 1st season was a believer , and not afraid to show it . Albeit in his own weird way , sometimes sane like at the end here or watching a patient lacrosse team. Portraying him as someone who cared, sometimes.They changed him , or he changed. Either way, the way it /he developed is great though, turned into a rational reality junkie away from feelings (not of emotions though, you could see passion in him, music, puzzles, monster trucks, spud guns, medicine), If there ever was someone to show the difference between the two concepts , that's House. A feelings "bypass" of people let's say. But he took life differently than 99.9 of humanity , playful , creative , passionate AND careless (at the same time), but yes egomaniac as real negative , a self induced junkie, ending up naturally alienating everyone and striping all meaning from everything (nothing matters) but in the look for it (which he always and lastly found in Wilson) which made him more complex, interesting aka the most particular character of all time.
Galen wrapped electric eels around people's heads to treat 'melancholia' (depression), and now they know that electromagnetic fields can alleviate depression. Not bad for 2,000 years ago. Electrodes feeding information back and forth from a computer to the brain using an algorithm can do a lot more. We also have various other forms of advanced stimulation, like focussed light and sound. We are finally moving quickly past the barbaric era of mental health.
Great episode. The boy was so dedicated to helping his mom, at the expense of his own life, tho. It's too much for a kid to take on, but he did his best.
House saw that the son was taking lots of notes and thought this one would make a great medical doctor someday The part about the mother just made it all the more enigmatic
This is another random thing UA-cam presented that started me binge watching. It may be necessary to start watching whole episodes on Peacock. If it were reality, House would be fired in an instant since he's so inappropriate. But this show is incredibly well written and fun to watch.
Don't be so sure that he would be fired. He is suich a genius at what he does that the hopital and medical community overall would forgive him much. And that, my friend, is reality.
He is a good kid. A good son. Trying his best to take care of his mom but he’s still just a kid and isn’t equipped to deal with all of her problems. The dutiful child is a good child.
It's actually a sign of child neglect and abuse. It'll shape him for the rest of his life. Another fictional example that comes to mind is the sisters in pet sematary
3:14 "We don't even know how to treat it. Fumigation of the vagina?" The nurse at the desk heard that, did a triple take, and it's for sure going to stick with her for the rest of that week.
It appears that the kid resembles a young Wilson, in physical characteristics and mannerisms. It makes a lot of sense that House would intuitively connect with him.
I was a 30 year-old when I got a deep vein thrombosis that ended up in my brain... 38 is young, but if she has a fairly common genetic defect, like Factor V Leiden, it isn't that odd...
@@heikg I had a fairly complex case where I had walked around with increasing head-aches and bouts of dizziness, which my personal physician attributed to increased blood pressure. Until, after 6 months, one night, I suddenly lost the ability to speak and comprehend others. After a couple of days of tests they found I had a dangerously high brain pressure due to thrombosis in a vein in my dura which caused my blood to leave my brain slower then normal and increased the production of cerebrospinal fluid. By the time they were able to do something about it (by giving me spinal tap and later a permanent cerebral-peritoneal shut) my brain had already suffered from the half year of high pressure and I am left with chronic head-aches, fatigue and trouble concentrating. The head-aches and fatigue are aggravated by bright lights, loud noises and any strenuous activity, physical or mental... I lost my job as a PHD-researcher, but luckily the Netherlands has great social security, so I do get life-long "benefits". I now spend my days on hobbies, taking care of our dog, chores around the house and being bored mostly, but at least I can save my energy for the weekends to visit family and friends. I miss the social interaction from colleagues and the sense of purpose and achievement that come with having a job, but it is something I have learned to live with...
@@molliesgame3381 That last sentence makes very little sense to me. I am happy I didn't die and aware that it could have turned out worse, but to say I "should feel extremely blessed" is a bit much... Getting a blod-clot in the brain or lungs as a young, active man is really rare. Suffering permanent damage from it is even rarer still. So if you mean blessed as meaning being lucky then I am clearly not lucky, even if I survived it. If you mean blessed as in some deity has blessed me to survive the ordeal then I wonder why he didn't just bless me to not have to go through the ordeal in the first place? Or why he didn't bless your mother to survive it? All in all, it doesn't seem like a sentence that applies here...
"I like this chair."
That's the best thing about the hospital House has to say.

House always seems to be drawn towards people who are also suffering, especially if they’re a kid.
Even House is taken aback at how well mannered and responsible this teenage kid is that's not nothing, that's something.
Not even House is capable of being that responsible

The bigger irony is how you fail to comprehend that house always has a reason, which isn’t the same. Your point: flamed out.
House makes assumption to test them and be proven right or wrong. The other Dr's assumption was a dismissal that would not help the person.
Cause House doesn't need tests, he is the test.. Those other Drs. better test, cause they're nothing like him.
House will make the assumption but often backs it up by tests, he knows he would kill more people without his team.

the banter between wilson and house, together with house´s snarkyness in general is the lifeblood of this series
"He's really talking to a patient?"
"I don't know who I am anymore"
LOL
My favourite show of ALL TIME!
Nice Kid! That's a rare compliment from Dr. House in recognition that he was extraordinary.
“No one believes me..”
“I do.”
I absolutely love those lines, just Dr. House, normally grumpy and rude, always factual and no filter. But his tone and the way he says shows a truly empathetic side to him. Not to mention the bits and pieces of the true HER coming in via quick statements with a more True Tone to it
1:29 That “Hello” will always and forever make me laugh
Although not always unfortunately..
It's rare to be as good as him. That's why I said that. Not being rude. Just realistic.
I found this heartwarming. This had nothing to do with house enjoying puzzles, it had everything to do with house wanting to help someone who everyone else was willing to write off as a lost cause. The original Dr. was just willing to say “she’s drunk, get her outta here” which obviously bothered house, who takes the case and finds out she has Wilson’s disease and cures her, bringing son and mother back together.
I know this is just a TV series, but I must applaud the kid taking care of his mother. It shows strength & loyalty.
House: “these chairs are nice”
"no...pickles" genuinely made me laugh
The back and forth between
House and Wilson is amazing dialogue, snappy, witty.
This was the first episode where I really saw, for the first time, that House cares alot. Not just the "he cares so much, but he covers it up with sarcasm to not risk getting hurt" or whatever, but really saw how much he cares about those who deserve and need that care and are in their most vulnerable; he just doesn't have the patience or time for people that jerk him around and waste his time.
"You take what he tells you to take."
He doesn't say it as a question, as though he's already decided that he knows she's lying. It's a statement, that he wants her to know that he believes she does.
This clip shows why Foreman would never really reach farther than he did ciz he was never trying to learn anything only question everything
indeed, foreman had the qualities to make him great, but lacked this very expression towards learning (ironic that he would learn from cover to cover; but not approach to approach [re: House school of medicine])
wasn't he the dean by the end of the series? or are you saying he should've reach further than that?
This is complete bullshit, because foreman was the most resourceful character on the show when it came to out-of-the-box thinking for tests and other procedures when the proper way would take too long.
@@JordanReedYT sure, that’s why he’s good as dean. his strength and creativity is for tasks and procedures, not the imagination and self challenge skills of diagnosis.
the show surprised me by slowly developing chase for that evolving intelligence instead. i admit i dismissed him just bc he was pretty, which is pretty bad of me.
@@nurainiarsad7395
Forman was the first person House would ask to explain to the team why their idea is incorrect AND all the teams throughout the show relied on if House wasn’t available.
Idk why, but when he turns around and says “hello!” It always wrecks me. Love this show.
After seeing this, I need to go rewatch the entire series for the 5th time.
SAME
Gotta pump those numbers up rookie
Just 5 times?
So I'm not alone
3:17 the nurse's reaction lmaooo 💀
I think people missed that The young man’s behavior was what first caught House’s interest and the patient was simply the benefactor.
House md
Possibly the most painful episode, a glimpse into the world broken by illness. Just brilliant.
its pretty poor representation of schizophrenia though. my uncle was diagnosed 'paranoid schizophrenic'. it was profoundly debilitating. he refused to take medications, couldnt hold down a job, and spent the majority of his life homeless, hitchhiking around the country, in and out of jail, etc.
but he was never incoherent, or rambling random meaningless gibberish like this woman. a stranger talking to him would know he wasnt right in the head, and he would pursue some really strange or inappropriate topics, but they would still be able to have a conversation with him.
Have you watched s3 01? That had the most effect on me from this POV
@@easterworshipper5579 Tbf she didn't have schizophrenia, she had Wilson's disease. No idea how that presents or if this is a good representation of that, though.
@@easterworshipper5579I agree.
@GamerLeFay I cannot speak for everyone, but I don’t believe that it is really. But they gotta make good TV!
The way Hugh Laurie says things like "chairs" and "Hello!" is so different in later seasons, lol
His natural accent does peak through a bit in this season. Just a bit.
That first doctor discussing the PE is so apathetic and uncaring. Even though House jokes around he clearly cares more. Joking is a sign of caring
House through sarcasm smacked the first doctor as deserved and pointed out the doctor's inadequacy. Good for House. Plus, he wanted to and did get the patient and saved her life. Good show, literally! :)
You need detachment otherwise you burn out fast
Shoutout to this channel that uploads giant 8 minute long clips, never ending them short, letting you see he full scene. It's a rare good example!
season 1 of house really was the best season. House had a certain humanity to him, through the coldness and cynicism that's sorely lacking in the other seasons. He ends up becoming a sociopath and narcissist and his redeeming qualities get replaced with spontaneity and witty cruelty.
One thing that was cut off from this, immediately after House says 'Nice kid', it cuts to Foreman and he's nodding his head in agreement and looks down. Kinda rare tiny moment you'd blink and miss in the show. One of those moments where House isn't being sarcastic, and Foreman looks like he's thinking the same thing as House. Poor kid has it rough.
I like the way House interrupts the other doctor 🤣
. . . and shows him up.
house’s “HELLO” at 1:28 kills me💀💀
House referred to the kid as doctor, he sees the making of greatness in him.
😍 I was so obsessed with this episode, Lines in the Sand, Skin Deep, Sleeping Dogs Lie, and The Jerk when I started watching House but then it just kept getting better!!! Truly brilliant show. 👏
05:00 she was also a doctor in the TV series *Chicago Hope*
- You're a doctor?
- Own my own stethoscope.
The third time I watched the series, I watched it only for the one-liners. Fucking legendary :D
man i loved it as much back then as i love it now
"He's really talking to a patient."
"I don't know who I am anymore." out of context this sounds brilliant!
House sees himself in that kid. He is simply giving a silent nod to the next generation of House.
I love how rude and "misanthropic" House is but then true compassion shows through.
I also relate to house liking odd people instead of normal boring people, puzzles and what not
I was in and out of hospitals taking care of my mom for over a decade as a kid and teenager. I always wished I could've dealt with someone like house, most doctors who were brilliant and actually helped my mom had similar mannerisms to House just a lot less miserable.
5:29 that's why Chase was his successor
"Without Isaac Newton we'd be floating on the ceiling" only House can say that without sounding like an idiot😂
“Nice kid” twice is the best thing a child has ever heard from House. I hope he appreciates it. I see the “kid” as a genius
Laurie and the others on the team are extraordinary actors. Only the very best are cast in such a series. But actors act what writers write. And the writing here is over the top brilliant. The medical material, terminology and hospital settings are spot on. The classical, literary, artistic and musical allusions, coupled with superb delivery, gritty sarcasm, and in your face humor, make the character repartee downright riveting and electric. Kudos to the greats who wrote this excellent series, and to the director(s) who envisioned the outcome.
One more video until we get to hear House do his “fake” British accent.
Dr house on the outside was rude and mean, but he was the most caring doctor on the show
Exactly!
Remembers his order correctly: “Nice kid” house so easily impressed by this kid 😂❤
At first Chase seems like a teacher 's pet to House, later when he started to improve in his career and have his own way of doing the job, he started to act on par with House. House foster the dude right.
I usually hate medical shows, but House is the absolute best.
it's the way he says "nice kid" that gets me, no sarcasm, no sass, nothing.
it's so genuine i felt like Chase felt earlier for a second xD
3:17
H: “We don’t even know how to treat it, come on, fumigation of the vagina?!”
W: “I- a little louder, I don’t think everyone heard you…”
God… I love these two’s conversations.
"that guitar player in that English band" 😂
Gilmour is great.
Syd Barrett!
Matt Bellami
Roger waters, boring singer but great guitarist
@@tychobeckman9764 Bingo.
"Don't lie to him, Limpy" - Schizophrenic Mom to Dr. House
“They aren’t boring he likes that” never heard anything more relatable
i think later when house starts hallucinating, we learn that he actually likes these people because he relates to how the world
sees them
This House from 1st season was a believer , and not afraid to show it . Albeit in his own weird way , sometimes sane like at the end here or watching a patient lacrosse team. Portraying him as someone who cared, sometimes.They changed him , or he changed. Either way, the way it /he developed is great though, turned into a rational reality junkie away from feelings (not of emotions though, you could see passion in him, music, puzzles, monster trucks, spud guns, medicine), If there ever was someone to show the difference between the two concepts , that's House. A feelings "bypass" of people let's say. But he took life differently than 99.9 of humanity , playful , creative , passionate AND careless (at the same time), but yes egomaniac as real negative , a self induced junkie, ending up naturally alienating everyone and striping all meaning from everything (nothing matters) but in the look for it (which he always and lastly found in Wilson) which made him more complex, interesting aka the most particular character of all time.
Galen wrapped electric eels around people's heads to treat 'melancholia' (depression), and now they know that electromagnetic fields can alleviate depression. Not bad for 2,000 years ago. Electrodes feeding information back and forth from a computer to the brain using an algorithm can do a lot more. We also have various other forms of advanced stimulation, like focussed light and sound. We are finally moving quickly past the barbaric era of mental health.
Even a broken clock is right sometimes. Galen wax wrong about a *lot*.
@@JumpingTuna Wow.. I didn’t know that he can’t dissect dead humans or check a dead human’s bones during his era.
@@JumpingTuna "i like to dissect animals. did you know i'm utterly insane?"
- galen, probably.
Oh, NOW we send the family members away before asking questions.
Great episode. The boy was so dedicated to helping his mom, at the expense of his own life, tho. It's too much for a kid to take on, but he did his best.
House saw that the son was taking lots of notes and thought this one would make a great medical doctor someday
The part about the mother just made it all the more enigmatic
Wow. He said "nice kid" twice
He must really like him
I hated how this show ended but episodes like this where a treat. This is why I enjoyed this show.
I miss him so much 😭😭😭
This is another random thing UA-cam presented that started me binge watching. It may be necessary to start watching whole episodes on Peacock. If it were reality, House would be fired in an instant since he's so inappropriate. But this show is incredibly well written and fun to watch.
Don't be so sure that he would be fired. He is suich a genius at what he does that the hopital and medical community overall would forgive him much. And that, my friend, is reality.
"Dodging chainsaws, no doubt." 😂😂😂😂 im dying 😂😂😂😂
Wilson's ability to keep up with House's banter and just throw it back at him here with the deadpan humor is amazing.
The guest actors/patients were such phenomenal actors/actresses.
Yes; the actor who played the son was great in Joan of Arcadia!
It's very interesting that House seems genuinely and unusually sensitive to this patient.
This was one of my favorite House episodes.
He is a good kid. A good son. Trying his best to take care of his mom but he’s still just a kid and isn’t equipped to deal with all of her problems.
The dutiful child is a good child.
It's actually a sign of child neglect and abuse. It'll shape him for the rest of his life. Another fictional example that comes to mind is the sisters in pet sematary
House's sarcasm is so powerful to the point where its his normal behavior
3:14 "We don't even know how to treat it. Fumigation of the vagina?"
The nurse at the desk heard that, did a triple take, and it's for sure going to stick with her for the rest of that week.
A show that can be summed up as: "What if Sherlock Holmes was a doctor solving medical cases in the 21st century"
I love HOUSE show. Dr. House's personality is just great 😄
It appears that the kid resembles a young Wilson, in physical characteristics and mannerisms. It makes a lot of sense that House would intuitively connect with him.
the way House being nice to the kid made me thought its like Gordon Ramsay. Kid lies not to get caught, but adult lies to ruin their own lives.
"Nice kid" woah, House must really like him.
I know right!
I was a 30 year-old when I got a deep vein thrombosis that ended up in my brain... 38 is young, but if she has a fairly common genetic defect, like Factor V Leiden, it isn't that odd...
Did you get trough it without any lasting side effects? What were your symptoms?
@@heikg I had a fairly complex case where I had walked around with increasing head-aches and bouts of dizziness, which my personal physician attributed to increased blood pressure. Until, after 6 months, one night, I suddenly lost the ability to speak and comprehend others.
After a couple of days of tests they found I had a dangerously high brain pressure due to thrombosis in a vein in my dura which caused my blood to leave my brain slower then normal and increased the production of cerebrospinal fluid.
By the time they were able to do something about it (by giving me spinal tap and later a permanent cerebral-peritoneal shut) my brain had already suffered from the half year of high pressure and I am left with chronic head-aches, fatigue and trouble concentrating.

I lost my job as a PHD-researcher, but luckily the Netherlands has great social security, so I do get life-long "benefits".

I miss the social interaction from colleagues and the sense of purpose and achievement that come with having a job, but it is something I have learned to live with...
@@Kholdaimon sounds like another case that could've been solved on time but was instead downplayed by doctors saying nothing's wrong.
My mother at 45 had a blood clot in her leg that traveled to her brain but unfortunately died within minutes. You should feel extremely blessed.
@@molliesgame3381 That last sentence makes very little sense to me. I am happy I didn't die and aware that it could have turned out worse, but to say I "should feel extremely blessed" is a bit much...
Getting a blod-clot in the brain or lungs as a young, active man is really rare. Suffering permanent damage from it is even rarer still. So if you mean blessed as meaning being lucky then I am clearly not lucky, even if I survived it.
If you mean blessed as in some deity has blessed me to survive the ordeal then I wonder why he didn't just bless me to not have to go through the ordeal in the first place? Or why he didn't bless your mother to survive it?
All in all, it doesn't seem like a sentence that applies here...
