You don't think this is an acute situation? 188 00:12:42,862 --> 00:12:45,490 Coma, vomiting, abdominal pain. Hep "C" explains everything. 189 00:12:45,564 --> 00:12:48,761 - Except for the suddenness of the onset. - What's wrong with the timing? 190 00:12:48,834 --> 00:12:52,793 You get home one night, your wife hits you with a baseball bat. 191 00:12:52,872 --> 00:12:56,808 Likely causes: The fact that you haven't thanked her for dinner in eight years... 192 00:12:56,876 --> 00:13:00,869 or the receipt for fur handcuffs that she found in your pants? 193 00:13:00,946 --> 00:13:03,346 Sudden onset equals approximate cause. 194 00:13:03,415 --> 00:13:07,784 He also has high estrogen levels in his blood. That's indicative of a chronic condition, not acute. 195 00:13:07,853 --> 00:13:11,016 One test. What do his other liver tests tell us? 196 00:13:11,090 --> 00:13:14,184 Normal albumen levels point toward acute. 197 00:13:14,260 --> 00:13:17,696 Oh, okay, and, uh, why is her test better than mine? 198 00:13:18,764 --> 00:13:22,564 Because she's cuter, though it's close. 199 00:13:22,635 --> 00:13:26,002 Do a liver biopsy.

No way. 419 00:28:07,986 --> 00:28:11,752 Not by themselves. But in combination with the interferon it's like gas to a flame. 420 00:28:11,823 --> 00:28:14,348 - What interferon? - For the hep "C". 421 00:28:14,426 --> 00:28:17,691 - What hep "C"? - Oops. 422 00:28:17,762 --> 00:28:20,322 Is hiding a mobster's hep "C" that important? 423 00:28:20,398 --> 00:28:23,333 Is letting the feds know everything that important? 424 00:28:23,401 --> 00:28:26,029 You are a piece of work.

He's on a ventilator. 429 00:28:40,785 --> 00:28:42,719 Question is, why? 430 00:28:44,422 --> 00:28:47,220 It's not his brain. It's not a toxin. 431 00:28:47,292 --> 00:28:49,886 Our friend Babe helped with that one. 432 00:28:49,961 --> 00:28:52,054 - So, what else? - Hep "C". 433 00:28:52,130 --> 00:28:56,567 We never really treated it. We stopped the interferon when it started poisoning his liver. 434 00:28:56,634 --> 00:29:00,195 Am I gonna have to write a song about it? His chronic hep "C"... 435 00:29:00,271 --> 00:29:02,865 was not bad enough to produce these symptoms. 436 00:29:02,941 --> 00:29:05,910 - The estrogen level indicates it is. - It indicates something else entirely. 437 00:29:05,977 --> 00:29:10,175 We can't give him interferon now. There are still traces of the lozenges in his system. 438 00:29:10,248 --> 00:29:12,341 It'll just poison him again. Genetics. 439 00:29:12,417 --> 00:29:14,408 We don't treat the virus, we change it. 440 00:29:14,486 --> 00:29:16,784 A nonnucleoside allosteric inhibitor. 441 00:29:16,855 --> 00:29:18,914 It's never been tried on a human being. It could kill him. 442 00:29:18,990 --> 00:29:22,221 - What's the difference? He's dead without it. - They're running a trial... 443 00:29:22,293 --> 00:29:24,887 on dogs at St. Sebastian's out in Philadelphia. 444 00:29:24,963 --> 00:29:26,897 I'll make the call. 445 00:29:28,299 --> 00:29:31,598 What else could cause his estrogen level to be that high? 446 00:29:33,938 --> 00:29:36,270 Nothing. 447 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,894 We're gonna put the medicine in here. 448 00:29:57,962 --> 00:30:00,829 Don't want it to burn his veins when it goes in. 449 00:30:00,899 --> 00:30:02,867 And you have no idea if it'll work. 450 00:30:02,934 --> 00:30:04,993 It's shown promise in testing. 451 00:30:21,019 --> 00:30:23,749 Ma-Maybe there's nothing up there.

Just give me a second. 460 00:31:13,504 --> 00:31:15,734 Always wanted to use one of these. 461 00:31:23,014 --> 00:31:25,107 Tilt his head back. I-- I don't know.

An allergy. 481 00:33:24,402 --> 00:33:27,963 - Did you hear me? - What about a food sensitivity? 482 00:33:28,039 --> 00:33:32,271 All his food is strictly controlled. There's no correlation between his meals and his condition. 483 00:33:32,343 --> 00:33:34,743 He had steak and potatoes before the first coma, 484 00:33:34,812 --> 00:33:37,406 and the hospital served fish sticks before the second one. 485 00:33:41,052 --> 00:33:42,883 You can trust me. 486 00:33:45,189 --> 00:33:48,454 Problem is, if I can't trust you, 487 00:33:48,526 --> 00:33:50,994 I can't trust your statement that I can trust you. 488 00:33:51,062 --> 00:33:53,929 But thanks anyway.

You're wrong. 532 00:36:34,559 --> 00:36:37,926 Okay.
