House, Season 6

House MD (2004–2012), created by David Shore, is about an irreverent, controversial, but successful doctor who trusts no one, least of all his patients. more »

[Chase is sitting in a church confessional]

Chase:
Bless me father, for I have sinned.

Priest:
Take your time. How long has it been since your last confession?

Chase:
I killed a man.

Priest:
Oh.

Chase:
It was the right thing to do.

Priest:
Who lives or dies is not your decision to make.

Chase:
Sometimes in an operating room it feels like it. I'm a doctor.

Priest:
Well then you should know more than anybody that every human life is sacred.

Chase:
Why? Tell me what's sacred about a dictator who kills hundreds of thousands of his own people.

Priest:
What is sacred about a doctor who kills a patient?

Chase:
Is it just the slippery slope you're worried about? Afraid if for forgiving me for killing the worst person on Earth sets a bad precedent? I promise, I won't tell anyone. Just forgive me.

Priest:
Saying ten Hail Marys isn't going to do you any good.

Chase:
Look, what do I have to do? What does God need me to do?

Priest:
You can't have absolution without first taking responsibility. You have to turn yourself in to the police.

Chase:
What and go to jail for the rest of my life? What's just about that? I did the right thing! There has to be another way.

Priest:
You want absolution? I told you how to get it.
