Episode 6.04 – The Tyrant
Air Date: October 5, 2009
This episode of House was less about the diagnosis and more about the human drama of the Tyrant. He was a ruthless dictator in an African country who had committed genocide and other atrocities. I’m not totally sure they decided exactly what his ailment was, because he died before they got it completely tracked down.
I know that the last two links are not diagnoses, but are links to two actual countries that have had similar genocide and atrocities committed by dictators. If you aren’t aware of those sad/tragic moments in history (and the present), you might want to check them out too.
They actually did figure out what he had. They had narrowed it down to two choices – it was just that Chase used the blood from the cadaver to make the team think it was disease B, when it was actually disease A.
