@seenfuit: in fact, it was translated so clumsily) just no one knows exactly when he has a doctor, so they ask. Cameron congratulated in advance, Cuddy guessed right, and Wilson asked if it was in these numbers)

@vph: Well, Cuddy may well know for sure, the head doctor has access to the personal files of her subordinates.

I still didn't understand if the patient had schizophrenia.

@Mar: no, schizophrenics are not capable of such meaningful actions as calling social services so as not to torment their son.
All mental disorders are symptoms of the disease

@hihahuhiha: I thought so too, but I didn't understand why House told Wilson in the last minute of the episode: you were right, she has schizophrenia.

He said that because the misdiagnosis started to cause her psychological distress. A muddy series

No, he said, "it was schizophrenia." This means that he was initially interested in the patient.

that's how I went to an ophthalmologist - they turned
the incompetence of most doctors into a schizophrenic - it's scary
especially when we have incompetent doctors all the time

Well, I will join those who did not understand what was going on with schizophrenia. I didn't understand what House's last phrase about this disease was about. Either they translated it incorrectly, or the joke is so ambiguous. I still didn't understand why there were insinuations towards the guy, the patient's son, when House assumed that he felt attracted to his mother and was ashamed of it. Again: just speculation, suspicion? What was that? Unclear.

@Virginia: after the phrase about schizophrenia, House said, "and now it's not so interesting anymore." as far as I understand, this is about the fact that he was interested in the patient not the disease that caused her to be in the hospital, but her mental state.

@Kukumberg: you read it wrong)the son will hate HIM, i.e. House, for the fact that the MOTHER called the service herself)

the 2nd or 3rd time I watch this series, the same number of times I get bombed. What an ungrateful bastard this boy is, the first is that your mother was saved from cancer, the second is that your mother was cured, my God, of "schizophrenia", the third is that the treatment questioned their careers in general, licenses because of the setups with the tumor and this scum in the end does not thank, but cringes about the social services, "I won't forgive you anyway," etc. I'm sorry, but this is beyond me, what an ungrateful bastard you've grown up with, Mom.
Somehow, sorry for the negativity.

And the mother also indulges, looks with the message "just don't tell him that I called", and then grins that she didn't spoil the relationship with the child (which is doubtful in itself by such measures), sick of this.

Oh. I disagree about my mother's smile. She seemed grateful to me. The type of doctor who cured and did not pass

@crazycat1000: that's right, the commentator above is really bombed, apparently it touches something personal, so it distorts. House has shown himself to be on the noble side, many people don't like him anyway, the hatred of another kid won't change anything, and the relationship between mother and son will save. As for the ingratitude of the kid himself - it's still a teenager! They tend to be maximalistic and egocentric. Forgiving for the past and being grateful for treatment is a mature attitude, it's stupid to expect this from a 15-year-old.

In the end, House lied to cover for Mom.
A humane act. It's not like him)

Ayumi

06 Nov 2020, 15:09 #

@irb1s: on the contrary, the further I go, the more I see House as a man of high moral principles, very kind and very vulnerable. His behavior is a reliable protection from the cruel world, which means that he was once very wounded, betrayed. Plus a sharp mind - and he can't deny himself the small pleasure of playing pranks on others. Smart people easily parry and see his true nature behind this mask, but stupid people are offended.

@Ayumi: This is often how he communicates with his surroundings.
But patients are just a puzzle for him, Greg does not have humanity for them in 99.9% of cases!
Here the lie was not to save my life, which surprised me :]

I don't understand why doctors couldn't distinguish her real diagnosis from schizophrenia... Well , like this is how much you need to be indifferent 🥲
