House · Season 3, Episode 14

Hannah, Dr. House and others in “Insensitive”

I wanna see my mother!

Hi again. Not sure I can say this without sounding condescending, but then you'd get the false impression that I respect you, so... you're a kid. You're scared, you're stalling. Grow up.

I'm not scared. I'm never scared.

See? How juvenile was that? You can't feel pain - nothing left but pleasure. Why don't you tell me how wonderful that is.

It sucks.

Better than being in pain all the time. Get in the chair!

[Hannah stays on the floor, House gets a syringe]

Every morning I have to check my eyes to make sure I didn't scratch a cornea in my sleep.

Oh god, stop! I'm in a pool of tears here.

I can't cry.

Neither can I. Every morning I check my eyes for jaundice in case the Vicodin finally shot my liver.

I can't run anywhere without examining all my toes for swelling.

I can't run.

Boys can't hold me for too long because I can overheat.

Girls can't hold me for too long because I only pay for an hour.

I need an alarm on my watch to remind me to go to the bathroom. Do you know how many humiliating experiences before I thought of that?

Bathroom's 50 feet from my office. Every drink of water I weigh the pros and cons.

After everything I do, I self-check: Mouth, tongue, gums for cuts, count teeth, check temperature, fingers, toes and joints for swelling, skin for bruises...

I got shot.

[Hannah pauses, Cameron and Chase exchange looks]

I sat on a stove when I was three. Wanna see the coil marks?

Yeah.

Do you think I'm lying?

Do you think I just wanna check out your tuchus, as your people would say?

[Hannah gets up and lifts her gown, House gives her an injection, she becomes unconscious]

Put her in the chair and run the damn test. If she moves again, give her nitrous.

[House turns to leave, but Cameron intercepts him]

You weren't shot because of leg pain, you were shot because you're a jerk!

Some think the two are connected.
