Team mis-diagnoses:	Testicular Cancer Brain Abscess STD
House team's rule violation(s) / ethical breaches:	House goes against the board and gains a non-viable heart but the woman who died had some sort of medical problem which needs to be solved before they can perform the heart transplant. House manages to get acceptance from the woman's husband to take the heart and keep her on a ventilator until they can cure whatever she has.
House's "Aha!" moment:
POTW final diagnosis:	The actual patient needs a heart transplant but the heart was 'contaminated' with a virus. The team eventually figure it out to be Gonorrhea.
Other / clinic patient(s):	House treats a man who explains he's in love with a cow and needs something to stophim getting sexually aroused. House deduces that Tony still eats burgers so it couldn't be a cow he's in love with. Tony reveals it to be his mother and needs tranquilizers until he can move away. House medicates him.
