  • House Md Season 2 Episode 2 Autopsy
    House md Season 2 episode 2 Autopsy This episode is all about what make life worth living even in the face of death Synopsis Andy is a nine year old girl with terminal cancer. She is seen at the beginning of the episode singing Christina Aguilera’s Beautiful as she puts on a wig and smiles at herself in the mirror. But she has a frightening hallucination and has to go to hospital where she becomes Dr House’s patient. Dr House is not just bothered about her condition but about why she is so brave, helping her mother cope with the worry and fears about her illness and comforting her. Dr House doesn’t believe that a nine year old can be that brave and thinks it’s a symptom of disease. During one procedure where Dr Chase is performing the tests, Andy says she has never kissed a boy and wonders what it would be like. Dr Chase says there is plenty of time for that, but Andy says she may die without ever having experienced kissing a boy. She asks Dr Chase to kiss her. Dr Chase says no at first, but changes his mind and kisses her gently on the lips. Back in the office, the team speculate whether Andy has ever been sexually molested which Dr Chase denies saying that he believed her when she said she’d never been kissed. Dr House is cynical and says she’s learned how to manipulate people from being abused then correctly guesses that Dr Chase kissed her when she asked.

Because disease and death are more likely as adults grow older, those who investigate suspicious deaths have a particular challenge when it comes to deciding which elder deaths to scrutinize.

First, what a unique and enormous research privilege it was to be in the position to do such a study. And second, how very hard Patricia Mitchell, Fenton Johnson, and I worked to make the study as fair and useful as possible. When we unlocked the door and entered the abandoned Symphony offices months after the 1986 bankruptcy there was still food in the refrigerator, stacks of unopened mail (some with checks) on the desk, and unretrieved messages on the answering machine, the most poignant of which was: “The Symphony died because Calvin died.” (Calvin Simmons, the dynamic young black music director, died in a mysterious boating accident.) There were even press releases left in the typewriter saying everything was okay.
