A teenage son juggles paperwork and dates for his mother's benefits while she rants at voices, then she collapses at the table.
House dispatches Luke on a very specific lunch order and sits with Lucy, while the team wonders why he is drawn to patients like her.
Cirrhosis in a woman who supposedly doesn't drink, then a solid mass; Wilson introduces himself to Lucy and tells her she has cancer.
A state caseworker arrives for 15-year-old Luke; he pleads to stay, and mother and son share a memory before he is led out.
House shows the only call from Lucy's room went to Social Services, and argues that sacrificing for her son is too sane for the diagnosis.
The team lands on a rare copper disorder, House questions their hope, and a forgotten eye appointment leads to copper rings in Lucy's eyes.
Ready to go home, Lucy sees her son walk in and greets him like the mother he remembers.
Lucy thanks House; Luke refuses to, and House lets him think the call was his own doing, then admits the case lost its interest.
