In this week's episode House took the case of a musician with paralyzed legs who suddenly got problems with breathing. House wasn't interested in pneumonia - the reason why the patient came to the hospital but in paralysis which occurred half year before. Musician's personal doctor said that it was an uncurable disease called ALS, but House wanted to check it himself. He got in trouble becouse when the patient got lung obstruction House reanimated him despite the fact that musician signed the DNR (which is a phrase of the week) - "Do not resuscitate" document. He sued House becouse he preferred to die for lung obstruction rather than for long agony caused by ALS. In court House persuaded the judge, using Sixth Amendment Right which says that he has right to meet his prosecutor in court, to prevent the patient to "pull out his plug". This gave House enough time to figure out what the real problem is and cure the patient.
Meanwhile Foreman got job offer from musician's doctor who was Foreman's old friend. Eventually House persuaded him to stay by telling him that maybe his friend forgives him his faults but House abuses Foreman becouse he care what he does.
