“Help Me” is the House M.D. episode title that refers to a treatment-related plea for assistance. It is the sixth-season finale, which aired on May 17, 2010.
The episode centers on a mass-casualty incident involving a collapsed building. House and his team treat injured victims under extreme pressure, while a patient trapped beneath the rubble presents a particularly difficult medical and ethical problem.
“Help Me” is notable because it moves the show’s diagnostic action away from its usual hospital-case environment. The disaster setting forces House to make urgent decisions with limited information and few resources. The episode also has lasting consequences for House’s personal and professional outlook.
The title can be confused with “Everybody Dies,” the eventual series finale, because both titles evoke mortality and crisis. “Help Me,” however, belongs to season six and is specifically associated with the collapsed-building emergency and its aftermath.
