EPISODE OVERVIEW

12 Reviews | 607 Votes

Two men are out jogging -- one of them returns back to his wife and discovers her dead asleep and brings her to the clinic. The doctors are puzzled by her symptoms. They consider everything from tumors to breast cancer to rabbit fever. When all the treatments fail, House concludes she has African sleeping sickness. However, neither the woman nor her husband could possibly have ever been to Africa. The woman will die without the proper treatment, but neither one will admit to having an affair. Read full recap »

  • House: A Portuguese man was diagnosed three years ago with C.N.S.-affected sleeping sickness. His only connection with Africa was through a girlfriend who'd served with the military in Angola.
    Dr. Chase: Boy. Where'd you find that?
    House: The Journal of the Instituto de Higiene e Medicinia Tropical. You don't read Portuguese?
    Dr. Cameron: You do?
    House: Pretty sure that's what it said. Either that or it was an ad for sunglasses. edit »
  • House: You check her E.K.G. results before she left the other day?
    Dr. Wilson: You ordered it.
    House: You're the responsible one. edit »

    House: Very ethical. Of course, most married men would say they don't date at all. edit »
