[When Wilson invites Chase to go speed dating along with House]

You brought a date?

Chase

Wilson seemed to think it was a good idea.

You need to dive back into the pool.

And he has to swim in ours? You go to a bar, you bring your ugly friends.

Chase

It's not a beauty pageant.

Life is a beauty pageant. Little girls who kiss frogs expect them to turn into you.

Chase

Oh, come on. I'm not that good-looking.

Yeah, you are.

You kind of are.

Chase

So you attribute every relationship I've ever had to the height of my cheekbones?

Not the whole relationship. Just the beginning.

The rest is your hair.

[Monitor in cog sci lab displays an image of someone swinging a bat]

What are you thinking?

AAbby

About Nick playing baseball.

Holy crap!

Chase

That's amazing.

Yeah. Now all we have to do is read her subconscious and hope that it's completely rational and went to med school.

Chase

Does anything get you excited?

Chase

You had a conversation with House, you came back, informed me I'd been forever poisoned by him, and started packing.

Interesting how your story leaves out the part where you murdered another human being.

I still don't know why I said that. It's not even true. I did love you. Just... not in a way that would have ever worked.

Chase

Why not?

Because everything you said is true. I'm a mess. I married a man I knew was dying. So... God knows how screwed up I already was. Him dying messed me up even more. I pushed you out of my life. And I'm-I'm un-unfixable. Not you.

So you gonna ask me about this Huntington's trial? And by ask I mean give me your opinion.

Chase

No. There's one thing, though....will you have sex with me?

...what?

Chase

Well, this trial means you're leaving right away. I was playing a long game. Deadlines have been moved up.

So this time I'm gonna put you at ease. It's just you and ol' Doc House. A couple of pals chittin' the chat.

Chase

Why not just place a chair above a trap door with a shark tank underneath?

Wednesday is when I get my shark tank cleaned.

Chase

[to Foreman] So who gives a crap if I prepped her?

Uh, House. And that's just off the top of my head.

Chase

Why are you doing this? You trying to make me look bad so you look better… or you don't like her, or you're angry at me? What?

We hire someone unqualified, it's just dead weight we'll all be pulling. Me especially.

Chase

You especially why?

What do you mean why? Because I'm...

Chase

You're what? You're my boss or something?

Something like.

Chase

So that's what it is. You're angry that House gave me the chance to hire someone because you still think you're at a different level to everyone else. That's just pathetic.

I am at a different level.

Chase

Which is reflected in what, exactly? Your title? No. Your salary? Not really. Your responsibilities? Hardly. Your attitude? Ah. I think we finally found it.

It doesn't change the fact that you made a bad decision because you want to get laid.

Chase

Or the fact that you're courageously picking on Kelly because you're scared to take on House. Congratulations. You're a real leader.

So what do you guys think of Dr. Cheng?

Chase

Best treatment for a vascular malformation is surgery. And I think your wife thinks you shouldn't think anything of Dr. Cheng.

[to Chase] So, what was that shrug? A "Dr.-Cheng-could-work" shrug? Or a "House-is-gonna-crush-you-for-even-considering-her" shrug? [Chase shrugs again] You suck.

Chase

House is gonna hate anyone we hire, because he doesn't want to hire [gesticulates wildly] ...anyone.

So you think I should abstain? Just give the decision back to him?

Chase

Then he'll just mock you for being a wuss. You're screwed.
