Why Did You Fire Chase!? | House M.D. 

Love the little Office moment when they pulled up on Cameron's face. "I'm in the room" 😂😂.

I love that chase actually called him back and told him what was on the petscan.

I love that Chase, despite having been fired, both knew what was on the scan and didn't hesitate to tell House anyway. XDXD

House: “Chase, you’re fired.” Chase: “Fine, I’ll be a firefighter instead.”

I love Chase's reaction to being fired. Like on some level he get's it, he's baffled but not the fear we see earlier in the series, he knows he can go out there and do more now.

Chase: “You can trust me.” House: “Problem is, if i can’t trust you, then i can’t trust your statement that i can trust you.” 😂

Everyone: Why did you fire Chase? House: *What is the result of the P E T S C A N*

There are two types of people in the world: those who can't believe House fired Chase and those who know what was on the pet scan

He fired him because House knew he was too good, and house no longer needed to mentor him.

And in the end, i think House liked Chase the most

Really a nice twist how House fires Chase and then 5 years later or so he becomes the next head of Diagnostics

"You've been here the longest and you've learned all you can" thats actually a pretty good line

4:51 woah chase pulled a batman on them

House: *Fires chase* [Everyone Disliked That]

The way they handled Chase being fired was very nice. They didn't do any cliché thing shows usually do to have to justify an actor leaving the show. Instead they had House fire him in a way that makes sense, and have the characters react to it in ways that the audience can genuinely sympathise with, not just the viewers who like Chase.

"Sorry, you're in the wrong room. My name on the door, my team, my decisions." "My building, my floor, my people." Only Cuddy knows how to own House

Tht cane has officially been through everything.

What's on the PET scan? Cuddy: Why did you fire Chase? House: Do you know what's on the PET scan? Cuddy: You two out. House: Woah wait what's on the PET scan? Wilson: What the hell's wrong with you? You fired Chase? House: I don't suppose you know what's on my patient's PET scan? Wilson: I told you to show Foreman you have a heart, how does that translate into you being a bastard? House: So that's a no. One of my favourite scenes. Poor House, all he wants is the results :P

“ Foreman’s not as easy as Cameron , then of course , who is ?” When they zoomed in on Cameron right after 😂😂😂 SAVAGE

I'm with Chase in this one, House keep agreein with Foreman to make him stay and felt that Chase wasn't helping, but at the end it was better for Chase to leave cause that would help him to become less dependant on House

Chase became so much more better especially from the sixth season onwards(after he trimmed his hair). He became more like House and was probably the one of the best characters this show had.

"You are indispensable! Ahhh, you're still fired, sorry." 🤣🤣

House has fired so many people in this show. For like no reason

I think it would have been great if Vogler, the janitor and all the nurses came in asking why House fired Chase.

The song during House's air guitar (more like air cane) is "Slippery When Wet" (1975) by the Commodores for anyone curious.

I miss this show sooooo much! By far the best medical show ever!

0:21 that zoom in the camera reminds me of The Office 😅😅

House: Foreman is not as easy as Cameron, but then again who is? Cameron: I'm in the room... Cracked me up so much it gave me Lupus

Chase eager to impress House reverberates from his desire to impress his absent father. When Foreman gets the kind of attention that Chase always wanted, Chase cracks. (Chase solved a case once, saving a little girl, and House gives him no positive words of credit). Incredible character consistency.

House: Do you know what’s on the pet scan Everyone: Why’d you fire chase House: pet scan?

4:48 That's such a House moment. Well done, Chase. ...Or he's Batman!

Cameron, Chase and Forman were one my favorite team with house

0:17 that camera pan was like a comedy

Always loved the cane/guitar solo House performs in this episode

the door handles are so *u n a l i g n e d* oh my god

I always felt that House firing Chase was done for good reasons. I believed House did it knowing Chase would grow, become better from the experience and ultimately become a better doctor. Given that Chase still called back regarding the pet scan, in later seasons rejoined the team , stayed on good terms with House after being fired, was down with all of the crazy antics, and ultimately took over from House after he left the Hospital shows just how much Chase was down with House. Foreman is House light...but Chase has got the best of House.

House appreciated and defended them, did his best to keep Foreman from resigning, but when Chase claimed him, House realized that he could no longer form the same team, it was inevitable, and he made the decision to fire Chase and would only wait for the Cameron resigns. Excellent episode like all!

Poor house... all he wanted was to know what was on the P.E.T. Scan

5:18 😀😀😂😂😂 I told you to show Foreman you had a heart. How does that translate into you being a bastard? 😂😂

0:17 Probably one of the best lines and best scenes in the entire show.

That subtle nod that house gives chase when he fires him men all know that that’s a know of a an equal he taught chase but also sees how much potential is really there

I swear Cuddy and Wilson are acting so much like Parents in this scene.

Me getting naked in my bedroom: My dog: 0:21

It's alright, the Prodigal Son will return

Theory: Foreman wants to quit because he don’t want to be like House in character wise. But Chase is already like House in terms of getting excited on solving the cases (you can see the facial expressions of Chase throughout many episodes when they discuss about the cases or House mocks others in the team) and being around with House when he makes fun. I feel Chase gives many differential diagnosis and foreman rule-in or rule-out and Cameron mostly explains the pathophysiology of the disease. Foreman cares about ethics and Cameron care about people and Chase cares about solving the case just like house. But he is not miserable like House. Chase is just content. He felt hurt but he doesn’t break like others or have any outburst feelings when he got fired. Also Cuddy when handing the resignation letter just asked Foreman ‘are you sure about this?’ And continue congratulating him on future endeavors. But when Chase gets fired ,Cuddy mentioned ‘Dr Chase is a good doctor’. This is my opinion completely. Sorry if it hurts anyone feelings. My opinion maybe biased because I like Dr.Chase’s character and intelligence more.

The way Cuddy goes You two, out Badass

“I told you to show Foreman that you have a heart, how does that translate you into a bastard?” THAT LINE GOT ME OFF 😂

Forman Is of course better than camraon Camron:iM iN tHe RoOm

Everyone's assuming the cast changes over the years were driven by character or story - they weren't. They were in response to audience responses. They modified and pushed people out, brought them back in to give audiences the characters they seemed to like the most. Also to accommodate certain actors' career choices (like Olivia Wilde). The rest is just rationalization.

Every episode of house was, House will diagnose the patient and the team will diagnose him

"Did you give my phone number to an angry Cuban?"

Fun part about a bad memory is that I forgot what I was watching and got surprised when he fired chase.

I would actually like to see a montage style spin off series that shows s how working with House has made them as doctors in some later escapade.

House is cane-guitaring to Slippery When Wet by the Commodores (1975)

Now he leaves to start his new life as a fireman on Chicago Fire

6:00 When Mom and Dad confront you on the same issue playing Good and Bad.

6:04 I enjoy this scene a lot.

The petscan scene was one of my favorite bits in the entire series

"She's got a hot spot" ...how often do u suppose doctors miss stuff because there are too busy worrying about their own probs.

Of all the characters on the show at this point, Chase was the most like House. Chase was House’s yes man and always agreed with what House has to propose. Chase was always loyal to House unlike Foreman and Cameron would always be the ones to be defiant to what House says, so it makes sense for them to leave by resigning. Chase would never resign, so he had to be fired. Even then to support my argument, Chase stayed on House’s team the longest from three years before the series started and up until the final season.

00:20 That comedic camera pan. LMAO

Probably House knows that people that work with him for to long get a stigma that keeps them from working anywhere, Chase was near that limit.

I love how House asked everyone what was on the PET-scan XD

The videos lately have been leading to no conclusion whatsoever

4:56 Chase just pulled a Batman on Cameron.

4:52 I'm Batman

Chase did a batman when he was talking to Cameron and Forman😂

After he fires chase it's like he was waiting for him to call a bluff just based on that concerned look

In the real world House would be a hobo addict at the corner street, jobless, cold and alone no matter how smart he is. No one will hire someone who doesn't work well in a team, disregard supervisors and fires people for reasons like 'they're too good, they need to be elsewhere.' His 'residency' means nothing.

Esteban was very well intentioned and well-mannered... but with all his asking, I can see why House was extra annoyed about him.

The moment chase said "Fine." House knew he fked up xD

Chase really has become his favorite and it's always the reason I enjoy rewatching these clips... (we love you channel owner person dude!)

0:22 I'm getting The Office vibe

We want a Chase MD

He respected Foreman alot

The way they pan to Cameron is too good

5:25 when the siblings wanna know first.

Chase has always been the second best character to me. Wilson comin in with a very close 3rd spot

Who ever keeps posting your awesome.

"I'm in the room" fucking floors me every time

I love Cameron and Forman whyd you fire chase Cuddy whyd you fire chase Wilson whyd you fire chase 😂😂😂😂

Jesus Christ, what did Chase do, send an email blast to the whole hospital? Forward his FML post to Cuddy and Wilson? I'm surprised Evil Nurse Brenda didn't storm in. "You fired Dr. Pritty Hairz? WTF is wrong with you, Gimpy?"

I read that title and instantly clicked thinking about 4:59.

Cant we all just agree that he fired Chase and foreman and Cameron quitting because the show runners wanted/needed to have a fresh start to bring new life into the show? It failed of course, but that is the real reason.

chase pulled a batman

4:58 Chase pulls a Batman.

0:18 that was a very Tarantino-esque shot

That punch zoom on Cameron is so out of place for how the show is usually shot lmao. Feels like an office bit.

Hosue fired Chase because he knew there wasnt more he could do for him. He knew he was good enough to make his own decisions, like a mama bird throwing a baby bird out of the nest.

Even now chase is House 2.0

I think House fired Chase to spite Wilson for saying he is not used to change, which is also the reason House gave when firing Chase

Edit: quote verbatim Chase got fired because he was already ahead of Foreman and Cameron: watch the episode and look closely - Chase was taking leadership and making better plays at the case. House was literally and figuratively taking a back seat. Might sound cruel but House was letting the patient train Foreman and Cameron. Back to leadership he cues by his dialogue "I still have two people working under me got to get one to do my job for me" Chase was already a leader so he letting him go and due to the circumstances. Notice how Chase despite being fired provided the scan results to House without any hassle. It's a nod to show how Chase is more competent than Cameron and Foreman. Cuddy and Wilson are of traditional mindset, rewaed excellence with more work. House is of the-weak-link-gets-extra-training-and-beatings mindset; from his military stepfather. However, House rewards excellence by giving them less work or dismissing. He slacks in the hospital because he is that good. Also they insert the comedy of:how many doctors does it take to change a light bulb (scan result) to further reinforce the themes of apprenticeship vs adeptness.

man that PET scan bit is so good 😂

So why did House fire Chase? And what happened later to both Foreman and Chase?

Wow, Chase just pulled a Batman

Chase: "It's an infection." House: "It's not an infection you idiot, also, you're fired." [45 minutes later] House: "Woops, it was an infection."

4:58 love this scene

Love how House's singing just peters out when he turns around to see the hostile audience.

i like that quick camera pan to her lol great

Thank you for the upload. I miss watching house
