The African American aspiring football star is lying in the bed, his worried mother close by. House injects him with something. The patient reacts badly to the medication.

House: "You're turning white."

Mother: "What does that mean?"

House: "It means he doesn't need football to get a decent job anymore."

Later in the show:

House: "Do you know why you're black?"
Patient: "Because God loves me more than you"
