What is the name of House M.D.'s final episode?

The final episode of House M.D. is titled “Everybody Dies.” It serves as the series finale and concludes the story of Gregory House and his closest colleagues.

The episode aired on May 21, 2012, at the end of the show’s eighth season. Its plot involves House confronting a life-changing personal and professional crisis while attempting to help a drug-addicted patient. The title echoes the series’ interest in mortality and also recalls the recurring idea that patients, doctors, and institutions cannot escape human limits.

The title can be confused with “Everybody Lies,” the phrase associated with House’s diagnostic philosophy and the title of the second episode of the series. “Everybody Dies” is a different episode and the official finale title. David Shore wrote the finale, which uses a mixture of present action, memories, and imagined conversations to resolve House’s relationship with James Wilson and provide the central character with a decisive final choice.
