Work Text:
When you're not used to it, the hospital can be quite a big scary place. A tribute to each of the 170+ patients of the week on House MD.
Canon-typical medical horror (e.g., blood, needles, blades, unreality); bugs; strobe/flashing lights. Thank you to
bironic, who is singular.
(See the end of the work for more notes.)
Each patient of the week, in order, gets one second in this vid. Names are provided below. Of the 176 House episodes, there were 3 without a patient of the week; those episodes were skipped in the vid. When House/his team treated more than one patient in an episode, I generally determined one to be the sole patient of the week. Only two episodes had what I considered to be two patients of the week; in those cases, the two had to share the time. Also, the writers of House needed a baby-name book very badly. More than one third of the episodes had a patient of the week with the same name as another patient of the week. The most popular were Joe (three Joes and a Joey) and Bob (two Bobs, a Bobby, and a Robert). Other duplicates: Abby/Abbey/Abigail; Adam; Alice; Benjamin/Ben; Bill/Will/William; Brandon; Dan/Daniel/Danny; Derek/Derrick; Hank; Hanna/Hannah; Henry; Jack/Jackson; James/Jimmy; Jeff; John; Julia/Julie; Lucy; Maggie/Margaret; Mary; Matt/Matty; Nick; and Vince.
