House: No empty coffee cups. Off the caffeine. Good for baby.
Dr. Cuddy: Cups are in the waste basket, baby is in your mind. (edit) Tritter: You don't introduce yourself?
House: Sorry, I thought you were waiting two hours... didn't know you wanted to chat. Hi, I'm Greg! How 'bout that local sports team? (edit) House: Give her the same food she ate at the diner and stick her on the treadmill.
Dr. Foreman: Better yet, put a gun to her head; threaten to rape her. (edit) House: Who’s he talking to?
Dr. Cameron: What?
House: It’s got an ass. Technically that makes it a “who.” (edit) House: If he's not hitting that, then why is she here?
Dr. Cameron: Because I'm hitting that, and it's totally hot.

Trivia: This episode marks the first time that House has ever lost a bet.
(edit)
At the end of the episode, the police officer pulls House over, and tells him his pupils are dilated. The officer alludes to this as being an indication of being under the influence. Throughout the show, Dr. House has used opiate medications for pain, namely Vicodin. Vicodin does not dilate the pupils. Opiate medications, in general, constrict the pupils. Dilated pupils would be indicative of other drug misuse, such as benzodiazapenes, but not Vicodin or any other painkiller. Also, it's night so House's pupils would be dilated regardless.
(edit)
Holdup Man: ...Time to make the doughnuts...
This line is from a popular old Dunkin' Donuts commercial, in which a tired employee is getting up at 2 a.m. in the morning to go into work, muttering the line to himself groggily. (edit) Title
The title itself is more than a passing allusion to a Sam Shepard play called Fool for Love. Other similarities to the play: the main characters, May and Eddie, are half-siblings who were incestously involved when they were younger prior to finding out about their familial connection and the parent of one of them (May's mother in the play as opposed to Jeremy's father in the House episode) committed suicide after failing to keep the young lovers from getting together.

Fools for LoveGood "Alternate reality" The medical mystery was fine, but the policeman side-story was ABSURD. Imagine a cop suing a doctor, then later "accidentally following and arresting him". He would be thrown off the force for abuse of power. Stoooopid. Continue » Posted Apr 28, 2007 2:15 am PST |
