The season-six finale of House M.D. is titled “Help Me.” In the episode, House treats a woman trapped after a building collapse, creating an unusually focused emergency case for the diagnostic team.
“Help Me” aired on May 17, 2010. The story places House in a disaster setting rather than the familiar Princeton-Plainsboro conference room, while also exploring his emotional response to the patient and the limits of medical intervention.
The episode is notable for its guest performance by Amanda Seyfried as the trapped patient’s daughter, and for the personal consequences that follow the case. It was written by Peter Blake and David Shore.
The title is easy to confuse with “Everybody Dies,” the series finale, or “Both Sides Now,” the season-five finale. “Help Me” specifically concludes season six and begins with the collapse rescue scenario.
