House’s ego has taken a blow when he believes he failed to diagnose a patient. When this failure begins to affect him physically, a stubborn House takes on his next case. Seven-year-old Clancy, a product of in-vitro fertilization, has been admitted to the hospital with rectal bleeding and claims of being tortured by aliens. The team runs tests on him, but when they get different results from the same tests, in addition to finding an unknown metal object in his neck, they are forced to give Clancy’s alien claims a little more credence. Amidst all this weirdness, Cuddy and Wilson decide it would be best not to tell House the truth about his last case, thinking that perhaps he will learn some humility if he believes he’s not always right. Cameron discovers the lie and is outraged. A frustrated House gives up on his young patient, forcing Cuddy to re-think her decision to hold back the truth.
