This Isn't Your Wife! | House M.D. 

He wasn't consoling him. He was twisting the knife. He was saying, you were willing to leave her in this broken state because you thought she lied, instead of just being grateful she was alive. NOW, you have the girlfriend you always thought you had, but she's dead. Happy?

Both are reasonable ways of interpreting what he said.

@@cryptojihadi265 knowing house, it was both. he likes his double meanings.

@@cryptojihadi265 house is never cruel for the heck of it. This was meant to comfort.

House has a kind of radical honesty that spares no one, including himself. It doesn't bring him any pleasure.

Agreed, the most fucked up episode ever.

I laughed

we have a saying "مصائب قوم عند قوم فوائد" which means some people's disasters are other's benefits. it applies for this episode perfectly.

There was a true case similar to this shown on Oprah. Two friends were in a car crash and one family buried who they thought was their daughter, whilst the other family sat around the other girl praying whilst she was in a coma! I can remember saying to my boyfriend at the time that I'd only have to see one of his toes and I'd know if it was him or not!

ALI sensei هاي شنو علاوي 😂

Unfortunately it's even worse, the hospital didn't misidentify her, her own family did and the doctors didn't second guess

@@fangsabre to be honest, denial probably plays a part in the misidentification

@@fangsabre But they did figure it out.

Best I can say is think of something to mellow you out and be ready to amscray after giving the news. The akward part is you don't feel anything and make them angry in their grief for appearing callous

@@OneManCanStopTheMotorOfWorld The announcement is perfectly appropriate and material. It was made to show the special meaning the video had to the commenter, and the deep effect it had on him or her. It also shows that he or she is compassionate and empathic. You are way off base.

Injuries so bad that the Parent's couldn't even tell that it wasn't their own Son's, yet everyone was super ticked-off at the Hospital for making the incorrect Identification of both Xavier and Parker. If the Parent's couldn't tell that they weren't dealing with their own Child, how would "strangers" be able to tell. With such a horrific accident and the boy's looking so much alike because of colouring their hair for the playoff's etc. ; I think that the EMS personnel, the Doctors, and the Hospital staff did a terrific job by only mixing up two of the boys. Sad and shocking yes, however I feel that given the urgency required to ID the "similar looking" team mates, the Hospital personnel should have been commended rather than ridiculed and criticized for the mix up.

I was about to mention this as well. As Cristine Cristine pointed out, if parents can't tell how can first responders. In an accident that bad a mix up bound to happen, I honestly wasn't surprised by that news(would have been surprising if there hadn't been a mix up). But I did feel bad for the parents, and the medical personnel who were working on the team, they were probably equally as surprised and distressed by the news. They didn't deserve the backlash people gave them, they were doing so much at one time and with little time for some of the players

Lauren Quist I recall an accident when a school bus collided with a train. There were so many badly injured kids that the hospital staff wrote their names on their foreheads with markers. It seemed a bit weird to me. Like, maybe just write it on a chart and put the chart in front of them?

@@daerdevvyl4314 Likely the Congers School Bus incident. 1972. Overloaded school bus with 50 students aboard failed to stop at a rural grade crossing at the bottom of a hill. 15000 ton coal train cut the bus in half and dragged the front part of the bus over 1000 feet before the engineer got her stopped. Several kids were killed, most were maimed, and the closest hospital only had 7 surgical rooms. First police officer on scene confirmed that at least 5 of the kids had suffered full amputation of limbs at the crash site. Since it was 1972, there was no 911, no Life-Flight, no cell phones, and the only reason help arrived so fast was the mother of one of the boys that had just boarded the bus was doing dishes and watched the crash from her kitchen window up the hill. He was ejected from the bus and was crushed between the remains of the front part of the bus and the leading locomotive. I remember this clearly because I read a part of an interview with the train engineer as an example of evocative writing as part of a journalism class. "The memory that remains etched in his (the engineer, I have forgotten his name, sadly) mind is the sight of the rows of faces pressed against the windows, mouths open in silent screams, their tiny hands raised as if to ward off the 15000 ton monster that now roared down upon them." I cannot imagine what that man went through. Or the lady that saw her son die from her kitchen window, but didn't know it until the next day when they found his body between the metal pieces. Or the policeman who arrived first, or the firemen and paramedics and doctors that worked to save what could be saved. The parents that had to find out their child was dead, or mangled, or maimed. The priest that had to give what comfort could be given in such a situation, or the neighbor whose child had been spared and still had to face his/her friend whose child had not. I am thankful that I do not know.

@@vishnu79 Can I just say you have a beautiful writing style? Thanks for this story.

I mean the dude lost his other, so he really can't be pushed any lower

It was just true

Yeah, but “why are you still here?” Was rather harsh, even for House.

House may be rough be he still has a heart Honestly if he didn’t he wouldn’t work so hard to get the right diagnosis

It's hilarious how low the bar for kindness is for House.

@@aayushpanda9 giving someone the authority or means to do something.

Well I mean he might have done but I’ll be riding shotgun next time

I looked at this comment right when I was on that part lol.

"Performing the abortion with a shotgun"

Such good writing 👌

Ellie Wright actually makes me wonder why was that guy still there

@@edwardmalpartida5894 Yeah, like bro, your wife has been and gone. You can leave now lol

Edward Malpartida denial probably

He actually figured it out before House and was just waiting for them to catch up. Absolute legend.

I mean there's paperwork to fill out? Maybe they're trying to make arrangements with the funeral home? Maybe they have other friends who were in the accident.

Huh. The only fucked up part (from the perspective of the girl waking up from her coma) is the parents likely sold all their daughter's stuff. Can you imagine how pissed she would be that all her possessions were gone. And i mean beyond clothes. Thinl home video or CDs. Plus imagine having to pay for removing and replacing the tombstone.

@@cunningsmile4166 um no most parents don't sell their dead kids stuff in 5 weeks that occurs years later due to not wanting to abandon what they have left of their kid. Use your brain for critcal thinking a poor plant slaved to make that oxygen

At least the parents of the dead girl did not have to pay for the funeral, or did they have to reimburse the coma girl's parents ?

I mean the day that she woke up was probably the happiest moment of the family that buried the wrong girl lives.

@@Metaknight145 And the worst for the parents who thought their kid was alive :/

Oh yes... I didn't notice that straight away. He had already subliminally told them!

Convicted we shall see

Wo wo wo can i refuse

Which is true

BioYuGi yes I remember all women jeans and jackets and some dresses not being equipped with pockets at all. Or they shouldn’t use wallets the size of letter envelopes because that I agree with

GarytheOtaku I can’t tell if this is sarcastic or not because I hope you know that women’s clothes are notoriously pocketless

Yes, in today's world, why on earth are women still walking around with purses while men can get away with wearing trousers lined with pockets from ankle to hip? My guess would be fashion, which is designed to mess with our self image for profit. r/changemyview

Don't companies make women's pockets smaller so they buy purses. Honestly, the struggle of not being able to put a phone or a wallet securely in my pocket sucks.

This is why women’s clothing need to stop having ‘fake’ pockets sewn into them.

And I like to think this is a “meta” plot device and foreshadowing.

@@ziggystardog Or both

The clue for the audience was "Then why are you still here?"

If he didn’t already know, he knew as soon as House said the patient had recently had an abortion. His GF had supposedly just miscarried.

I’m now realising that maybe he wasn’t ready to go back to an empty house.

Boyfriend!

@@trevorbluesquirrel899 saaaaame thingggg

@@paddington1670 No it's not.

It seems like he was already loving to begin with, since he was still at the hospital hours after she'd died. But, if this were a true story, he probably did become extra loving to her after that. I can only imagine!

@@trevorbluesquirrel899 Then he is a definite husband material

*girlfriend

Eric Rowland - The title of the video says wife. S’ all I got for ya.

@@nbp2015 So that must mean it was his wife, even though the script of the show says girlfriend. The writer OF THE SHOW must have had it wrong. Makes sense.

Eric Rowland - The written words right in front of my face stuck more than that one spoken word. Yes, House said girlfriend. Yes, the title is wrong. Congratulations. You win the internet.

@@nbp2015 Lol, ignore that smartass brat. Which is ironic in light of your comment...)))))) Screw him)

gwanael34 He usually unintentionally does that. But other times it’s something or someone else.

But Wilson could only do so much- without getting completed exhausted

You know it's not the other person right?

Only friend he ever gave a shit about. Even “killed” himself for him

@@captainteeko4579 i'm pretty sure it's implied he actually does in the end

The smell got me. You don't smell the same at the hospital, as my cat can attest to. He sniffs SO HARD when I come home from surgery or something. Definitely hard to recognize anything with her in this state. Poor guy...

How could he know her, he barely knew the mfer didnt like star wars.

Lol

🤣

Why HASNT he done any movies with doctors and hospitals. that would be awesome

What a twist!

He's a moronic director & lacks true focus vision & coherent stories

At 2:45 in the morning yup it did to me too

It is indeed, a scary name.

I didnt go down your spine

@@glowzm hahahahaa wtf died

Omg Same! That and when Cuddy said "She s screaming!"

On the flip side, imagine finding out the SO you thought was dead, was actually alive

This is one of the few episodes that got to me. 😭😭

When cgi gets so real

On April 6, 2018, a very similar incident happened here. A semi hit a bus carrying a junior A hockey team. Sixteen people were killed. One of the surviving members of the team was mistaken for another, who hadn’t made it. It was a few days before the error was discovered. Imagine the parents’ devastating grief.

Its a tv show

House: (continued) luckily the explosion singed off the moustache

Elderly Puerto Rican men have chunky badonkadongs.... Easy mistake

@@cunningsmile4166 I saw you on another video

Hopefully this weekend

@@p.atrick. what can I say. House is funny

Truly something Sherlock Holmes would say

or you’re dead?

It's the price you pay for not liking Star Wars apparently, have you met zealous fans before? I'm surprised Megan lasted as long as she did. >_>

bruh she doesn't like star wars? she has poor taste

@@cunningsmile4166 Not the original Sherlock Holmes from the books. Perhaps the wisecracking sociopath parody played by Cumberbatch would.

That's a really good reason to get a tattoo tbh

Birth defects help too; even old injuries.

I guess you haven't see the mri tatoo episode🤷

Lol its also a great way to comfort yourself after many regrets😂😂

Unless they scrape your skin off

Well, it was pre-C19... 😂

@@CynthiaNye.6005 they never wore masks for that matter.......

Becuz it makes little difference!

Well I hope your grandma would've appreciated that little joke on her funeral

lmfao thats terrible

😲

Knowing me, I'd make a distasteful joke about "are we sure this time" when it finally does happen, probably push it further with "well, lets check the body first to be sure this time" 😬

@@DrakeOola 😂

Only they had all the information and ignored it. And telling the boyfriend her medical history was against the law. If that was megan and she found out her doctor was giving out her personal medical information would have been a lawsuit. And even liz can sue.

@@lemonadelemon1960 Yeah even sharing the most minor PHI without a disclosure agreement form in place is a violation of HIPAA but these shows often overlook how serious hospitals actually take that. In many states, even direct relatives can’t get access to a patient’s information without the patient’s consent.

@@lemonadelemon1960 actually no in the show they did at first guessed right until the family misidentify her then the doctor just went alone and not digging deeper and for the legal part yeah your right but for real hospital dont really care you can sue yeah but whit the amount of money and power they have your gonna get crush

@@aoki6332 in reality its hapen .... sometimes

FUNNY too, these are both women yet the DIFFERENCE did made a HUGE difference when the doctors and the medical records "LIE".. no matter what is BEING done gets wrong.. HOW BAD could it be if the 2 bodies are a man & A woman.. YET a lot of "lunatic" TELL everyone that if the feel they are woman in a man' s body, it is REALITY..

Legit made me chuckle. Well played

that's epic

You are sofunny, lol

Have you seen Courteney Cox?

@@miguelluis483 God that woman used to be beautiful, I thought she was more beautiful than Jennifer Aniston...but who aged more gracefully? Good old Jen looks amazing for her age...same cannot be said for Courtney

@@ssh1487 yes, totally.

kinda looks like Cait.... i mean, the new Bruce Jenner

I assumed she was once super popular in Hollywood because her over acting was bad

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Talk about a The Mist ending.

"And here's to you Mrs Azrael"

I've seen that one. It fucked my head up.

Dang do you know which season or episode #/name that was? Thank you in adv.

@@EvilLoynis see my previous comment :p

You mean hilarious. They were worried over nothing

Edgy

EPIC DUDDDEEE SAWHHHH

Not really

You know, I honestly don't blame the EMTs but there has to be a better verification system in place.

Brutal lol

I laughed so much

I died cause she sounded a lil demonic 😂

Um Wow y’all

the alternative would be having the police check fingerprints. Hospitals don't have that ability.

Not just women, but all people. Having work in retail, I saw enough people that can easily take each other place with small facial/body adjustments.

@@drmayeda1930 that only works if the persons finger prints are on file with the police.....

I’m honestly surprised why the boyfriend didn’t recognize her hands. Hands are so distinctive and having two women, even ones that look alike, have identical hands is highly unlikely

Dustin T yes that's why serial killers keep killing the same times of woman. They all remind them of the first.

And not a alcoholic ! Yey !

Yeah, about that...

Party and cheers will follow

Well he would rather want the opposite now...

also ded lol

Think I read that House's conversations with Wilson help to jog his memory and thats why he has them.

I mean she is still technically not his wife

either way, the title isn't wrong. That really isn't his wife lol

Martin De Los Santos Technically not lmao

@@JimsyFlimsy This isn't your wife.... It's your girlfriend! Congrats she's still alive!

should be, "your girlfriend never lied to you"

7:51 When I get the test score back

I have test tomorrow morning, and here iam, stucked to RU-vid

Adilah Ramlan me right there

LancesArmorStriking Your girlfriend never lied to you. Ever. About anything.

The mind is a powerful thing.

Bright side? At least ge gets to bury her

​@@cunningsmile4166 nice

John John I agree, but I just can’t watch the show because House is such an asshole. In the final episode, all his coworkers and underlings should have beaten him to death.

Then you may be a sociopath.

Thank you

@@daerdevvyl4314 Not everyone is going to sugarcoat things for you sweetie.

Well House is based on Holmes as inspiration, sooo.....

Crime isn't the only mystery.

pmgmail He wuda figured it out earlier. Dental records, my good man!

Wilson is his Watson

And houses address is an Americanism on holmes

She really does

Eh, hard growing up in the spotlight and getting older.

Hard not getting a job because of looks

I’m trying to remember her name.. she has had a bit of work done. I think it is Amy something. Actress in the 1980 or around there.

@@johannahislope2036 Her name is Kay Lenz

Man. All that wasted money on a funeral. Sure their daughter is alive, but they're never getting back the hundreds of dollars they wasted.

yes.. In a f/up interview, the girl who survived does not remember any of the trauma that happened. Amazing how the brain will shield the psyche from certain events. The surviving girl went on to complete college and has a family now.... so sad for the other family who had to rebury their own daughter who died. This life has so much pain, but it is very short in many ways

Very dark. I like it 😁

Rick Baroza dont

Rick Baroza Sorry, Peter says you can’t.

@Roderick storey Blind People : what glass?

Realists: here is a glass of water, are you gonna drink it or what?

House: the glass has lupus

Feminists: the glass is raping me

An actualist: it’s always half full because it can’t be defined as half empty without being half full.

It's only a TV show

Yeah, not to mention his legal and ethical trouble for dislosing sensitive information from someone else's file to someone outside of family or medical proxy...

House doesnt give infections. Its physically impossible for a Dr of his reputation to infect someone else

Sam Morris And that means it can’t be realistic? It’s people like you that are responsible for the worst crap directors try to feed us.

daer devvyl Ok lets assume it would be realistic. Think house would still have a job? I dont think so, end of show. just my opinion, not hate edit: spelling

Omg really thats sad

@@mimi42428 it was all sorts of sad

Greys? That woman has aged so badly. I would quit just becuz of that. I would rather stay young n dewy skinned in the celluloid

Ngl?

@@XalTheMagkas not gonna lie

thats terrible lol

Grognak The Destroyer I say good day to you. I SAID GOOD DAY!

A lot of them are. There was an episode of Grey's where there was a live, unexploded bomb inside a body cavity and that actually happened to an infantryman overseas. They both survived

Whitney Cerak and Laura Van Ryan

When an actor has stapled themselves to one character... it's hard to call them anything else

siddharth radhakrishnan I love house, but that statement is not true

Really...the one with Chase's "nudes"? That was a great one?!

The whole last season was pretty shaky.

Once in a lifetime

My mum does that too. Never realised how important it is

@@tessy28 now, I do it to my husband before he leaves for work 😬

Fun fact, this concept is actually inspired by a true story

Ddespair Ddespair this actually happened in real life. It was on Dateline, I believe. Two girls in a car accident and each family was with the wrong girl. One survived and one died.

PlotPointOne Whitney Cerak and Laura Van Ryn. Really sad story.

@@kmac713. looked up the case after your comment...this is mental 😯 gosh.life is indeed stranger than fiction 😧

Yeah, but same hair, similar skin tone, roughly the same clothing size and all probably makes it hard to recognise someone. Plus her face was swollen af.

Her face was swole as fuck plus they had same hair and skin tone.

Neither girl ever knew Or they felt that love vibe if at all So it was all good Megan wasn’t alone when she lived her last n died and Liz wasn’t either in what they thot was her last.

House is inspired by Sherlock Holmes actually from what I know.

house is in fact a copy of sherlock

;-; Liz

Ikr? It's so sad!
