This is not an estate planning question, but what you have is a complete mess. Get a good real estate attorney ASAP. Again, NOT estate planning- get a real estate attorney. You may be able to rescind the deed based on your statement that you really didn't intend to give him the house. To get that, you will have to admit that you were trying to defraud the utility company, but at least it might get you your house back.
