Dr. House M.D. reviews. S1E05. Damned If You Do | ||
I wasn’t as enthralled by this week’s House as I have been previous episodes. It was still an engrossing medical mystery; the character elements just seemed superficial this week. First, I was misled by the TV schedule which suggested that the mystery was going to involve stigmata. That sounded intriguing and I was looking forward to discovering what diagnosis Dr. House would pin on bleeding palms. Unfortunately, the episode did not deal with stigmata, although it did focus on a nun. This particular nun had a wide variety of puzzling symptoms which some of the other nuns at her monastery (and I always thought monks lived in monasteries while nuns lived in convents) thought she was simply a hypochondriac. For the second week in a row, lessons learned in previous episodes were forgotten as the solution to this week’s mystery involved two separate and unrelated diagnoses — which violates the principle of Occam’s Razor. | Этой серией Хауса я был очарован не так сильно, как предыдущими. В ней была захватывающая медицинская загадка, но недостаточно внимания уделено характерам персонажей. Сначала я был обманут телевизионным роликом — в нем говорилось, что стигматы будут частью медицинской загадки. Звучало интригующе и мне было интересно в чем на самом деле окажется причина кровоточащих ладоней. Увы, в эпизоде не было ни слова о стигматах, но была монахиня,с целым букетом разнообразных симптомов. Причем было несколько монахинь в их монастыре (странно, я всегда считал, что в монастыре живут монахи, а монахини обитают в конвентах), которые считали, что пациентка - просто ипохондрик. Урок, полученный в предыдущей серии, был забыт и разгадка этого случая заключалась в двух разных диагнозах, что противоречит принципу бритвы Оккама. | |
The main character moment involved Dr. Chase, who was revealed to have been studying for the priesthood at one time. Other than that, the character moments were few and far-between. Sure, there were nuns, but that was pretty much a shortcut the writers used to suggest a deeper meaning to the episode instead of actually writing a deeper meaning. On the plus side, there was at least one Sound of Music joke. | ||
This episode of House, “Damned If You Do,” is a repeat of one of the early episodes from last season. My review at the time was fairly brief. I stand by it, but I thought I’d take a second look at the episode, particularly the medicine. As usual, there are some significant spoilers in the review… | ||
House’s final clinic patient of the day is Sister Augustine, a nun complaining of a rash on her hands. He diagnoses her with contact dermatitis and recommends an over-the-counter antihistamine and a topical steroid cream. Shortly after taking the antihistamine, Sister Augustine develops severe wheezing. House gives her a shot of epinephrine; it restores her breathing, but unfortunately it knocks her into cardiac arrest. Epinephrine is the medical name for the hormone adrenalin. Sister Augustine is successfully resuscitated and admitted to the hospital. |
