You are the champion of not dealing with your problems...
My grandson gave me a mug that says that.
“Wilson's Heart” · Season 4, Episode 16
In this episode: Gregory House (3), James Wilson (3), Amber (2), Dr. Lisa Cuddy (1), Thirteen (1)
You can't do this.
It's not a good argument. It's not an argument at all. I'm sorry.
Cuddy's right. I was afraid to do anything. I thought if everything just stopped, it would be okay.
And it's gonna be. Taub's starting treatment. We're doing everything-
Not everything. Before you warm her up, you said that you wanted to try deep-brain stimulation.
There's no reason. We know the symptom. We know what I saw.
What if it's not the rash? What if you noticed the rash on the ambulance when we were putting her on bypass? What if there is still something else stuck inside your head?
You think I should risk my life to save Amber's?
[Dr. Wilson nods.]
[Dr. House nods in agreement.]
You should call time of death.
Technically, she's still alive. Could probably survive a few more hours on bypass. We can wean her off anesthesia, wake her up, give you a chance to-
That would be cruel. Don't.
Wake Amber up. See her again. Tell her what she means to you.
Wake her up to tell her that she's... that she's... [Wilson breaks down. Cuddy embraces him.]
You are waking her up so that you could both say goodbye to each other. She would want it.
[dying] I'm tired [Wilson nods]... I think it's time to go to sleep...
[crying] Just a little bit longer.
We're always going to want... just a little bit longer.
I don't think I can do it.
It's ok.
It's not ok... why is is ok with you? Why aren't you angry?
That's not the last feeling... that I want to experience.
[Dr. Wilson kisses Amber and turns off her life support]
[Dr. House and Amber are sitting in an empty white bus.]
You're dead.
Everybody dies.
Am I dead?
[Amber pauses and gives him a sly look.]
Not yet.
I should be.
Why?
Because life shouldn't be random. Because lonely, misanthropic drug addicts should die in bus crashes. Young do-gooders in love that get dragged out of their apartment in the middle of the night should walk away clean.
Self-pity isn't like you.
I'm branching out from self-loathing, self-destruction. [pause] Wilson is gonna hate me.
You kinda deserve it.
[pause] He's my best friend.
I know. [whispers] What now?
I could stay here with you.
Get off the bus.
[shakes head] I can't.
Why not?
Because... because it doesn't hurt here. I don't want to be in pain. I don't want to be miserable. [pause] And I don't want him to hate me.
Well, you can't always get what you want.
[Amber raises her eyebrows in encouragement. Dr. House gives a nod and walks off the bus. Amber looks at the window, smiles and a white light slowly fades in, covering Amber and fades out.]
