What was the title of the House M.D. episode that featured the show’s final case?

“Everybody Dies” was the title of the House M.D. episode featuring the show’s final case. It served as the series finale and was broadcast on May 21, 2012.

The episode follows House after a building fire and places him in a situation where his future, medical license, and relationships are at risk. As he considers possible consequences, the story revisits figures and ideas from the series, using House’s familiar diagnostic imagination to examine his life.

The title reflects one of the show’s recurring themes: medicine can delay death, but it cannot remove mortality. It also recalls the pilot episode’s title, “Everybody Lies,” linking the ending to the program’s early emphasis on unreliable patient histories and hidden information.

“No Reason,” “Broken,” and “Help Me” are all real House M.D. episode titles, which makes them tempting alternatives. However, “Everybody Dies” is the finale title and the episode that closes the series.
