Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. This actor makes a special guest appearance on the show. He achieved a certain amount of fame from a popular show entitled, "Prison Break." What is the name of this actor? (Note: His character's name in that show was Michael Scofield.)

Answer: Wentworth Miller

Miller portrayed the loyal and loving brother in the acclaimed broadcast of "Prison Break." In this episode, he portrays a character who appears to be altruistic to a fault.

Answer: a cashier's check for one million dollars

Benjamin, posing as a potential applicant, leaves a generous check for the foundation. The manager in charge is nonplussed and follows Benjamin. She observes Benjamin collapse in the street and calls for an ambulance.

3. In a particularly humorous scene, House decides to change his image in order to coincide with his change of scenery. What does he do?

Answer: House gives himself a haircut

House breaks out a razor and gives himself a relatively close haircut. House's bright new assistant (Dr. Park) expresses her curiosity at House's new look. House succinctly says, "New life. New look." House further states that if he had done this at home, he would have to clean up the mess, himself.

Answer: Thirteen

Thirteen appears to be supremely reluctant to work with House again. However, House's ability to connive and persuade is akin to an irresistible force vs. an immovable object, with the odds favoring the irresistible force.

Answer: extreme altruism

Upon hearing that "extreme altruism" may be considered a symptom, Dr. Foreman gives House two options. The first option is to simply discharge Benjamin. The second option, which involves a serious view of altruism as a symptom bars House from accepting any financial largess from Benjamin.

6. Wilson approaches House with the news that House's patient has expressed an interest in donating something that will serve Wilson well. What is the nature of the donation?

Answer: Benjamin has offered to donate a kidney to one of Wilson's patients

House is on the verge of discharging Benjamin. When Wilson apprises House of the news about Benjamin, House has second thoughts. Even though Benjamin has not even met the prospective organ recipient, Benjamin offers to donate a kidney to one of Wilson's patients who has renal failure.

7. Foreman enters House's office and adamantly declares that House is off the case regarding Benjamin. What does Foreman accuse House of doing?

Answer: dosing the patient in order to produce symptoms

Foreman accuses House of administering a dose of medicine that will make Benjamin unacceptable for surgery. House fervently denies the accusation and Dr. Park sides with House. However, later House confides in Dr. Adams and Dr. Park that he actually did dose Benjamin.

8. House makes a special request of Thirteen. House wants Thirteen to pay a visit to Benjamin and coerce him into doing something. What is it that House wants Thirteen to ask of Benjamin?

Answer: Thirteen is to ask Benjamin for a vital organ

House has an idea. He asks Thirteen to concoct a story about how she needs a life-saving kidney transplant. Benjamin has already obligated one of his kidneys to another patient. Nevertheless, Benjamin is willing to sacrifice his other kidney in order to help Thirteen.

After the interview, Thirteen calls House. She tells House, "This guy is going to need another diagnostician. This guy is craaaazy."

9. While having a conversation with Wilson, House has an epiphany. The condition is related to the patient's thyroid. To which disease does House attribute the patient's condition?

Answer: Plummer's Disease

While having a conversation with Wilson, House determines that Benjamin has a small operable nodule located in his thyroid gland. The hyperthyroidism has been the source of nearly all of Benjamin's symptoms. In a coy post-operative interview, House tests his theory by requesting a donation for the department. Benjamin declines.

10. House views Thirteen in a romantic moment with her current lover. House asks Thirteen for a moment of her time. What does House say?

Answer: "You're fired."

In his own way, House is trying to help Thirteen. House cites the types of people that he is able to work with. Finally, he tells Thirteen, "I can't work with someone who's here just because they don't have to feel bad." Thirteen listens and says, "Bye House."
