Hypervigilance, sudden irritability...
Symptomatic of...lunch with Cuddy?
S2 E11Need to Know
What was Greg like after I left?
Er, an egomaniacal, narcissistic pain in the ass — same as before you left.
[House hands Cameron a sealed envelope, which she assumes is her HIV test results]
Knowing is always better than not knowing.
[Cameron opens the envelope and reads the letter]
It's a referral request.
[holds up an open envelope] Right. HIV thing came in earlier. You're fine.
[incensed] You won't read your mail, but you'll open mine?
It said confidential. I wanted to know.
The most important letter of my life, and you're still an ass.
Comforting, isn't it?
You don't like yourself. But you do admire yourself. It's all you've got so you cling to it. You're so afraid if you change, you'll lose what makes you special.
[pause]
Being miserable doesn't make you better than anybody else, House. It just makes you miserable.
S2 E12Distractions
You induced a migraine headache in a coma patient?
I gave him a little headache, similar to the one you're giving me now.
Have you even read an ethical guideline?
WDr. Weber
You cannot test this on an abnormal brain.
That's so closed-minded. He's not "abnormal", he's special.
Could pain medication cause an orgasm?
I wish.
His brain is like a waiter that's got too many...
Hey! I do the metaphors!
Bad news: Your son has a filthy, unhealthy habit. Good news: He's trying to quit. Bad news: Quitting is killing him. Good news: I can cure him. Bad news: [thinks] Nope, that's the end of it.
S2 E13Skin Deep
There's no age limit on addiction.
[taking a Vicodin] He's right.
[Discussing whether a patient's breasts are real or fake]
[to Chase] Two clinic hours says that those love apples are hand-crafted by God.
I thought you didn't believe in God.
I do now.
Cameron, Chase and the dark one... Foreman, right?
We're mandated to report sexual abuse.
Is it okay if I save her life first or do you want to make sure daddy doesn't get visitation rights to the grave site?
[Dr. Wilson is examining Dr. House's leg with the MRI]
[gruff disguised voice] House, this is God.
[in MRI chamber] Look, I'm a little busy right now. Not supposed to talk during these things. Got time Thursday?
Let me check. Oh! I got a plague. What about Friday?
You'll have to check with Cameron.
Oh! Damn it! She always wants to know why bad things happen. Like I'm gonna come up with a new answer this time.
[Cuddy bursts in]
House...
Quick, God, smite the evil witch! [Wilson wisely says nothing]
Are you sitting on evidence that your patient was sexually abused by her father?
God, why have you forsaken me?
[Wilson is telling House that his leg pain is a result of Stacy leaving.]
Listen, none of this has anything to do with Stacy.
Right, giant coincidence that you've gone completely off the rails since she left; inducing migraines, worsening leg pain- [House whacks Wilson's shin with his cane] Ow!
Aw, you miss Stacy too?
