That's the thing that annoys me, when they have someone injected in a random muscle and it knocks them out instantly.
Whats amazing is, at that "are you hallucinating right now?" moment, House didn't even stop hallucinating. He just went up a conciousness level. Hallucination within a hallucination.

And after he became lucid again the treatment(ketamine) worked in real life (if you watch the next episode). That is an almost disturbing level of genius.
Rashad Lafir did you see how he unplugged his wires. If the nurses hadnt gotten to him on time he would have experienced a long death🙃 and it was obvious that house did not care 😂
The bit around 08:08 was brilliant. Moriarty indirectly told House it was all a hallucination by refering to himself as 'the halucinatee' and House thought he just got the term wrong.
"You think maybe you're focusing on the wrong thing here?" Literally telling him, and House just ignored it, kept focusing on the previous hallucination
Bryan Cranston might beat him only because Breaking Bad had a better overall story than the House series did. The two episodes of House about Amber were probably the best thing the show and Hugh produced.
Such a clever episode. As the episode title says (No Reason) and as the hallucination progresses you realise that House really is miserable for no reason. Such fantastic writing.
And the writing we now get "i am a woman because i feel like it" "i a woman i am already superior and i should be worshipped for the sake of existence" "You ""people"" are the only ones who can be racist whilst i am merely compelled to do crime by circumstance"

I agree. Been a fan of his since Some kind of wonderful and of course Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Elias is the true Casey Jones. Also, Fallen was another great performance.
ea09 mmmm I prefer the more straight forward episodes with the patient of the week, just like in the Bond Franchise I prefer the more formulatic films where bond Goes on a mission, saves the day and gets the girl at the end.
Then he rips out the guy's morphine cables and coolly returns to his bed like a boss while the shooter screams in pain. House doesn't play around with idiots like this.
My all-time favorite episode from the best season of the series. Only the opening and final minute are real, and the entire episode being a dream is literally only for House to think about Ketamine as a possible solution for his pain. Also, I love the fact that we never, ever figure out who the shooter was, or what happened to him after.
@@vancealmighty how come he wasn't caught? He literally entered the Hospital armed, shot a Doctor twice and escaped unseen. No investigation done either as he could have attempted to do it again since he failed to kill the guy he came for.
I'd say this is my favorite episode of the series. It's funny because there was no major arc for this season to end on so this convenient one off was beautifully written to wrap it up. If all the events between what happens after House is shot and before he wakes is all in his mind, this is just a view of what his subconscious dreams up after a traumatic, potentially fatal event. This isn't just a case, this is House analyzing himself, the people in his life aren't real for most of the episode, they're just symbolic of what they mean to him and what he possibly means to them or would like to think as such, and also symbolic of how he thinks they would behave in given scenarios. If I'm right, I'd argue it's the most raw and insightful episode for House as a character if every detail is viewed as a reflection of a part of himself. It's what makes the episode so interesting to think about even after the first time watching if you view it this way. This dream still appears like the real world, the characters' behaviors don't seem too unusual, but it's a little off, the characters are all more coldly analytical than usual, the symptoms of House' patient are more ridiculous than usual, and House is taking advice from a man who shot him. Multiple things are happening here that are significant if treated as a reflection of House the character. Jack Moriaty's last critical analysis of House isn't necessarily his but House'. Wilson telling House that he's dismisses anything physical, is House believing or at least considering that he dismisses anything physical. Another thing is, House and Moriaty's interactions could be where House is wrestling the most with his guilt for how he treats patients, how he lives his life. The last interesting thing I'll add, is House confronting the idea of sacrificing his intellect in favor of a pain free leg, as well as the idea of anyone suggesting or forcing that choice upon him as a means to improve his life. House is breaking himself down as critically and coldly as he does to his friends, coworkers, and patients in the real world. It makes the ending ironic, because House was desperate to find a way to escape the hallucination because it had no meaning to him, but narratively speaking it holds an abundance to House as a character. Also, in the reality of House M.D., it challenged him to face himself and by chance find a solution to the pain of his leg, granted it didn't present a solution guaranteed to change him permanently. For me, there's just layers of depth to this episode that makes "No Reason" the most enjoyable upon an occasional rewatch. The next for me would be "Three Stories".
I think at 5:55 when Wilson says he isn't made at Cuddy and that she did nothing wrong, I think this is actually representing the part of House's brain that would do literally anything to fix his leg, and that if House had the opportunity to do the same thing then he would. Which he does at the end of the episode. Wilson is House's side that wants to be free of the pain, and house represents his intellectual gift which he values just as much if not more.
"You were out of control, you were shooting morphine-" "I CAN MAKE PEOPLE BETTER!" Great summary of House's character. All of his personal flaws are unimportant to fix, because they are essential to his gift.
In case anyone's confused about all the things in this episode that don't make sense: *None of it's real.* House is hardcore hallucinating while being wheeled into the ER.
@Matarael, Angel of Rain northern pakistan. People there look really exotic and unique! Some dark skinned individuals with the brightest eyes you can imagine.
But House does that to most of his patients without consent legally from his patient or patients family or even his boss. He does what he wants and doesn't care about consequences.
When you remember how his leg ended up that way in the first place, it makes sense he would have issues with someone AGAIN making serious medical choices for him.
@@Boyzbybut had he gotten to choose HOW to keep it rather than Cuddy and that other woman taking it into their own hands against his wishes, maybe he’d get to have his intellect AND his leg healthy instead of his intellect and a crippling injury.
Reality is what you make it... Quite literally. The mind is a scary thing under normal circumstances, let alone being in an altered mental state. Like most things, it's a double edged sword. Both a blessing & a curse, dependant on how you use it.
It isn't though. Reality doesn't change because you warp your own perception about it. You're just warping your perception. You can choose either to polish your perception or to warble it, but that doesn't change it for other people. That's why people that take drugs look out of touch with the reality around themselves: they've warbled their perception to such a degree that they're out of touch with the people around them; what they see is closer to reality than those who poison their perception.
Your perception of reality, is your reality. There are two realities, The Personal Reality & the Cosmic Reality. If you don't know any better, your personal reality can determine how you live within the Cosmic Reality. Autism is a great example of what I mean. To master one's mind, is to master one's self. Plus the show has an episode on a plane, where people are told they are sick & the symptoms of said sickness, which they all start to display. But they aren't sick. Their minds literally overrode the physical body. This happens in real life too, Placebo Effect, Hypochondria, etc... Reality is fluid, not solid.
No, reality is reality and your perception is your perception. To cross over the meaning of the two and also call your perception reality is just muddying the words in a way that undermines communication about these concepts. Psychosomatic symptoms happen (though not like they did in that airplane mass-hysteria episode), but psychosomatic symptoms are reality; you can see the rash, the puke. Though someone who hallucinates and thinks he's talking to dolphins, isn't actually conversing with dolphins. It's not reality. It's just warbled perception.
Not talking about hallucinations, never did. Their perceived reality of being sick, made them physically ill & that is a direct change in reality due to one's Personal Reality affecting Cosmic Reality. That's my point, but you keep trying to change the subject to hallucinations & drug use...
House didn't have a problem with loosing the pain in his leg, that's him on-running goal throughout the entire series. His problem was trading his leg pain for his intelligence.
"who uncuffed you?" is the first hint that this isn't reality and signals where the hallucination began. There's no explanation given for how he was uncuffed because he wasn't uncuffed, he's still in his bed. It's like when you start a dream in the middle of some circumstances which feel like they've been pre-established even though they haven't been.
@@jelena6116 Because she was too young and too idealistic back then, she didn't love real him, she had a Messiah complex, she was attracted to ''broken' men and aspired to ''fix'' them which was not possible and not in House's interests. It was just infatuation and Messiah complex, not mature love - that's why.
Great episode. Loved the dynamic between House and Elias K. Two men working through their own grief and physical pain - duking it out in ICU between mind numbing morphine drips, indifference and rage.
8:05 - Yeah, right. The hallucinator is gonna tell the hallucinatee what happened. - You're not the hallucinatee. Wilson was the hallucinatee. - Do you think you are focusing on the wrong thing here? House's subconscious spoiling the episode.
Small details in this show are amazing. you could've figured out he was hallucinating (or maybe just that something was off) from the very beginning, cause he was supposed to be chained to his bed and yet he walks to cuddy. goddamit this show is better than it should be
Remember when House used a knife and plugged it on a outlet just so he can see what the ‘other side’ looked like? I really felt bad for him at that time.
My favorite part of this episode is when he is in the car with the guy's wife and then the next second he's back in the hospital again and then he turns around and says "I'm sorry" and you can see there is a tear coming down his cheek...even though it was an hallucination he still felt guilty. I think that says a lot about who Dr. House really is.
So if I remember this episode correctly (and please correct me if I'm wrong), everything after House getting shot was just House's hallucination. So was it ever ascertained what *actually* happened after House got shot? That is, who the shooter *really* was (not in House's hallucination, but in the show's reality), what his motivation was, and what his final fate was?
They would surely want to keep the victim and the murderer within a yard....They sure as hell don't have any hard feelings for each other #MakesCompleteSense
My favourite episode by far, even if it did end up with 'it was all a dream', because the 'it was all a dream' was done well and made as a plot point, not a cop out.
House might’ve felt enraged by their treatment to fix his leg because the last time Cuddy made a choice for him (to cut out leg muscles) it made his leg worse and she’s why he needed a cane in the first place. He had a plan to fix himself that would’ve worked but she fucked it up
Cuddy gives House meds against his will.

i- that's supposed to be blood? i thought it was some sort of blood bag or something
they did a good job with the whole inception thing they twisted and the ending was beautiful. They did everything right with the series I swear
Not to mention this came out before the movie
This episode would make a great psychological thriller. The way the scene with Cuddy, Wilson and House was shot and written is gold.
Shooter: “I want to see you suffer”
House: *No You*
Shooter: groans in pain
Props to the security guard for securing another 6 seasons.
Hard to believe House turned down Cameron
He didn't see the gun coming.
I thought the series made it pretty clear why he did...
@@nathandkreosote9917 i didnt watch the whole show. Why did he turned her down?
Jelena same I would also like to know
@@jelena6116 Because she was too young and too idealistic back then, she didn't love real him, she had a Messiah complex, she was attracted to ''broken' men and aspired to ''fix'' them which was not possible and not in House's interests. It was just infatuation and Messiah complex, not mature love - that's why.
Great episode. Loved the dynamic between House and Elias K. Two men working through their own grief and physical pain - duking it out in ICU between mind numbing morphine drips, indifference and rage.
7:57 I love the subtle foreshadowing of what's really going on.
8:05
- Yeah, right. The hallucinator is gonna tell the hallucinatee what happened.
- You're not the hallucinatee. Wilson was the hallucinatee.
- Do you think you are focusing on the wrong thing here?
House's subconscious spoiling the episode.
Small details in this show are amazing. you could've figured out he was hallucinating (or maybe just that something was off) from the very beginning, cause he was supposed to be chained to his bed and yet he walks to cuddy. goddamit this show is better than it should be
this scene was so amazing to watch for the first time. he just shoots. no drama, no waiting, no hesitating
Remember when House used a knife and plugged it on a outlet just so he can see what the ‘other side’ looked like? I really felt bad for him at that time.
5:04 my men knew the rules. Leave a space between
*"That's my secret, Captain, I'm always on morphine"*
Wow that was probably my favorite clip so far. Really delivers the hallucination storytelling really well.
This was one of my favorite episodes. Always kept me guessing what was real and what wasn’t. Wavering between reality and hallucination done so well.
“You wet your bed”
Holy crap that was so blunt too! 😂😂😂
2:20 when he falls down... The worst fake blood I've ever seen 😂
That was blood? I thought he carried a red bag for no reason.
We just not gonna talk about his shoes?
Well it *was* an old show. So it kinda has a reason for it
It's his bloody rags
house is so legendary, no one doctor role can be as amazing as this one and no actor can portray it as well as he did. my favorite show
Am I horrible for laughing hysterically at 1:59
Nope
We all are then
I am as horrible as you are then
2:20-2:21 Looks like Hugh fell on the blood bag.
Have they tested house for lupus? The symptoms sometimes includes bullet wound like perforations of the body.
It's never lupus! lol
@@GeckoHiker Except for that one time.
The script writers should be given awards. Hugh Laurie was a Brit comedy actor ( look him up). He deserves more. Awards.
The way you said it implies he's no longer British, lol.
The actor of Walter White was a comedy actor.
House: “Let me put this in a language you understand”
Bean: “Let me put this in a language you understand”
“Your shoot the guy who sold her the garage door opener” 😂😂😂😂
90% "because i want ot see you suffer" blah blah blah
8% guy shoots house for his wife"s suicide stuff
2% other
100% "I wanna see House"
“I was a patient of yours” *DOESN’T REMEMBER WHAT HE LOOKED LIKE*
House doesn't usually meet his patients in person
7:09 FREAKING LOVE how that was shot!
Am I the only one thinking that this is like one of the actual best episodes in the entire show?
My favorite part of this episode is when he is in the car with the guy's wife and then the next second he's back in the hospital again and then he turns around and says "I'm sorry" and you can see there is a tear coming down his cheek...even though it was an hallucination he still felt guilty. I think that says a lot about who Dr. House really is.
Inception,but with doctors.
UNDERSELL that spontaneous reaction Cameron.
Every season's finale episode was so great in this show..?Love House!!!!
This is hands down one of my favorite house episodes
0:35 Imagine if that was the end of the series
1:50
House: *pulls out reverse card*
So if I remember this episode correctly (and please correct me if I'm wrong), everything after House getting shot was just House's hallucination. So was it ever ascertained what *actually* happened after House got shot? That is, who the shooter *really* was (not in House's hallucination, but in the show's reality), what his motivation was, and what his final fate was?
I like how house is so doped up that he barely reacts to getting shot.
02:41 House's reply/quip is hilariously dark lol
"I want to see you suffer"
"Erm, ok?" *unplugs life support*
They would surely want to keep the victim and the murderer within a yard....They sure as hell don't have any hard feelings for each other
#MakesCompleteSense
Param Jot Singh if I recall correctly, he’s hallucinating everything, he’s actually still unconscious after getting hit
jlammetje Yes, you remember correctly.
Dumbass it was a hallucination
Also there’s no murderer without a murder sooo...
W h a t c h
T h e
S h o w
Then you'll understand
Bro made a self diagnosis through a hallucination
6:59 and he's back 😂 !.
4:24 I like how "Cuddy" starts talking like House here.
"If you wanna leave, the chocolate is down stairs..."
*gets shot*
Kills me every time 😂
The line he delivers before the second shot....
dosduros Mafia style
Any time with Elias Koteas is time well spent.
My favourite episode by far, even if it did end up with 'it was all a dream', because the 'it was all a dream' was done well and made as a plot point, not a cop out.
This episode hits hardest when you realise house is just talking to himself the whole episode.
"you messed with my brain"
House's greatest weapon.
This was actually sad.
Look at detective Al Olinsky being a criminal before he was a cop.
Olinsky and Voight - the best ever!
First time I saw this episode I choked on my morning cereal. It was that shocking 😐
I enjoy how every character House comes into contact with in the show has a PhD in psychology
House might’ve felt enraged by their treatment to fix his leg because the last time Cuddy made a choice for him (to cut out leg muscles) it made his leg worse and she’s why he needed a cane in the first place. He had a plan to fix himself that would’ve worked but she fucked it up
The fact that every second after he got shot on this episode is a hallucination. The plot twist still amazes me
Now that's how friends take care of a problem
"Not today. Today I'm on morphine." My new favorite quote
“Here’s how life works. You either get to ask for an apology, or you get to shoot people, not both.”
House hallucinating Cameron sitting by his bedside for days on end is just hilarious! 😂
"I wanna see you suffer" - said the man that was whimpering on the medical bed
