How to describe House? The word that other characters like to use on him in the play is miserable (tragic, miserable, messed up), not only makes his own life miserable, but also doesn't mind letting everyone think he is miserable, and at the same time he makes the lives of those around him miserable. Made miserable, he looks like he is afraid that the world will not be in chaos, I am LM and I am afraid of who, and a sick leg and a crutch give him a reason to enjoy the miserable sound. What's more, whenever someone wants to show sympathy or close concern to him, he is always teased or teased or satirized by him, so other people have to follow up with a sentence: you are a jerk, you are a jerk.
He likes to grasp the little clues of the people around him and then dig out the deep pain in the other person's heart; he likes to ironically and metaphorically over and over again about the small mistakes or childish actions of others, any small handle in his hands will eventually become a Perfect stand-up comedy; he loves forcing seemingly happy lovers to admit to cheating on each other, uncovering the murderous intentions behind happy families and unspoken suspicions between couples; Everybody lies, it's his first principle as a doctor, so wife is present, sick The husband will lie, the daughter is present, and the sick father will lie; and finally, under the threat of death from House, the wife admits to having an affair, the father admits to incest, the talented son admits that he is a drug addict, and the 12-year-old daughter admits that she is pregnant. In the same way, he lied to the dean in order to test a guess that he had intuition but had no evidence of diagnosis, he lied to the lawyer in order to prolong the treatment time of the criminal, he lied to the organ transplant committee in order to obtain a transplanted heart, he It seems that he doesn't care about other things in the world, only cares about this case assigned to himself today, doing his best and doing his best.
He doubts everything that looks good, and looks at all life and death with indifference. When his ex-wife was willing to come back because of his feelings for him again, he finally quit, knowing that he could not have a good life, and would not be able to experience the same painful separation again.
He always looks very cute. He will say "I love you" to his female subordinates, and then take saliva from her surprised open mouth to test whether she is infected; he will make funny faces to the female dean and slander it. Cumbersome paper work; will tease Wilson, the doctor in charge of the oncology department with the best relationship, and drug his coffee. Wilson found himself sweating and his pulse reached 185 during the examination of the patient. , and House finally forced him to admit that he had been taking antidepressants; when Wilson, who was separated from his wife, slept on his sofa, he whimpered about the interruption of his life and secretly deleted the real estate agent's call to Wilson. message. He is such a cute man who suffers from sick legs every day. He is a complete painkiller addict, and painkillers are better than rice for him.
No one knows about his past, childhood, and marriage, and everyone around him wonders why he has become the unreasonable, unpopular, and deeply responsible House he is now. Only once did a teenage girl come to the clinic who was raped and became pregnant. A psychiatrist quickly came to the scene to take over. But the girl doesn't cooperate with anyone, asks House to take care of her by name, and even swallows a large can of pills to get his attention and is forced to do a stomach lavage. House couldn't escape, but the girl never said anything, only asked him to speak, anything can but must be true. House's stories were seen one by one, and in the end, he was broken, telling an 18-year-old girl a story she had never revealed to anyone, and the girl finally opened her mouth to tell another tragic story. He asked her "Why did you choose me?" The girl looked at him with open eyes, "Because I feel that you have been hurt before, just like me."
At that time, I suddenly realized why I liked House so much, because he had a sense of tragedy, a real miserable. As heavy as every joke he told, every brilliant metaphor he blurted out, his staggering footsteps that never awoke, the cynical expression that he didn't expect anyone to understand every day. It is heavy because, if the story is good, a genius should have enviable parents, a happy family, a healthy body, and dazzling academic achievements, and in House, only the last item is realistic. He is so miserable, so LM, yet so moving.
