House! I assume you're avoiding me because of the charity gala.
This Friday? It's completely slipped my mind.
So you'll be there?
No, I meant it slipped my mind to tell you I'm not going.
What do you think it'll look like if you don't show up when I get an award?
Like I don't give a crap about awards, charities, what it looks like.
If you ever want…
I RSVPed two days ago. What, you think I'm a complete ass?
If you were already going, why did you…
Foreplay.
Are you wearing my tie?
Oh, I saw it in your closet, and it happened to match my shirt.
Why were you in my closet?
Looking for a tie. What's the big deal?
Obviously, he wants you out of the closet for some reason. I suspect marriage, but I'm liberal that way.
Looking forward to Friday night?
Yes and no. Yes, because it is a great honor, and no because… Well, you know the because.
You think House is going to embarrass you.
Well, not intentionally. [glances at Wilson] Maybe intentionally.
Do you even like me?
Why?
I put making friends and having relationships on hold so I could concentrate on studying. I always thought there'll be plenty of time for that in the future. But… now when I do want them… I can't even get a date to this charity event. If I can't establish relationships in my personal life, how will I ever do it with a patient?
Be honest with her. But if it comes down to a choice between the brutal truth and hope: side with hope.
[knocks repeatedly on Cuddy's door until she opens it] We really, really need to talk.
You're drunk and you screwed up big time. Go home! [House walks in, Cuddy closes the door] You completely disappeared on me! You wouldn't even answer your cell phone.
You're going to want to sit down for this. [motions toward the sofa] Go ahead. Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit. I have made a decision. Being happy and being in love with you makes me a crappy doctor.
Shut up. You're too drunk to end this relationship.
I am drunk, and I'm also right. You have made me a worse doctor, and people are going to die because of that. [long pause] And you are totally worth it. If I had to choose between saving everyone or loving you and being happy, I choose you. I choose being happy with you. I will always choose you. [sits in the sofa, lays his head down in Cuddy's lap]
