Character mistake: When reviewing the results of the mercury testing on a patient, Dr. Taub says "Test results - Surprise, Surprise, Marcus Webly was wrong". The character to which Taub referred was actually Marcus Welby of 1969-1976 TV fame. (00:08:14)
The Tyrant - S6-E3
Continuity mistake: In the scene where the patient is having a heart attack, Dr Cameron is shown on the phone to House with dark hair despite having had blonde hair since season 4. She has blonde hair again in the following scene. (00:10:30 - 00:11:30)
Factual error: During the differential, Chase suggests the underlying condition is a systemic infection. House says this is unlikely since the patient received IV antibiotics the previous week. However, the doctor in the intro scene remarks that he thought the patient had C. Diff, which is treated with oral vancomycin, not IV. Oral vancomycin has next to no oral absorption, and would not treat a systemic infection. Moreover, even if vancomycin was orally absorbed, it would only treat infections caused by gram positive organisms and not other infections caused by gram negative organisms. (00:12:30)
Continuity mistake: Right after House has given the speech he and Wilson step outside and House removes his tie. After this his shirt collar changes between almost every shot, from being tucked in his jacket to being on the outside of it.
Character mistake: Episode 6.12, Moving the Chains: Marcus tells House that he and Eric were arrested for stealing a car, he was 16 and Eric was 14. He also says that his brother never did anything criminal after that. In season 1, we were told that Eric was 16 when he was arrested for stealing a car.
Answer: You have the right episode. The big deal at the end about the letters on the pills was to show that Brandon had the wrong pills all along. House was smiling because he was right.
