House

House: I love the smell of pus in the morning – it smells like victory. Paraphrasing/misquoting the line from Apocalypse Now spoken by Kilgore: "I love the smell of napalm in the morning You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory."

Anica: I think you gave me the form intended for FDR. Cynthia Nixon was one of the stars of an HBO original movie Warm Springs about the life of FDR in which she played his wife. She was announced as a nominee for a Golden Globe for that role on the same day as this episode's original airing. The question she had to answer was about if she was vaccinated for polio. FDR was diagnosed with polio in 1921. He taught himself to walk short distances by supporting himself with a cane. In 2003, a peer-reviewed study found that it was more likely that Roosevelt's paralytic illness was actually Guillain-Barré syndrome, not poliomyelitis.
