Factual errors: When the patient sticks his knife in the outlet, sparks fly. This normally wouldn't happen unless the knife is wired directly to ground. When House sticks the knife in, he inserts it in the neutral side (large, 'T' shaped hole). The neutral has little or no voltage which shouldn't result in a flash or serious shock. (DO NOT TRY THIS! It's dangerous, stupid and the outlet may not be wired correctly.)
