Foreman has been assigned to guard Jeff, for some reason. He tells Jeff that the prednisone they've been giving him for the EPO PRCA seems to improving Jeff's condition. Then Jeff's breathing gets ragged and his monitors go off.

The next morning, Foreman tells the crew that the prednisone is not, in fact, making Jeff better. In fact, he's getting worse. His red count is even lower than before. Cameron is very upset that it's starting to look like Jeff's ailments probably weren't caused by EPO, basing her medical opinion that EPO was the perfect answer on the fact that it meant Jeff's lying and cheating were coming back to haunt him. House informs Cameron that the world isn't fair. Case in point: Jeff's manager getting fired for no reason. Well, except for the fact that she leaked that story to the press behind Jeff's back. Foreman says that Jeff has been doing slightly better since getting a blood transfusion. And then House knows the answer. "Go forth and scan his neck," he orders.

House moves out to his balcony and tells a breakfast cereal-eating Wilson about Stacy's little visit to the Clinic yesterday. He says that Stacy is acting irrational and out of control, and that he needs to know why. Wilson warns him that this won't end well for anyone. Especially the viewers.
