Recurring Role |
The patient of the week is given a nerve function test by Kutner and Taub. They perform the test by puncturing the patient's legs with needles. This system of testing is archaic. Modern nerve function tests in a hospital today rely on electrical impulses from a small computerized device; no needles or skin puncturing is necessary.
House: You want the star of the hottest daytime drama on TV to die in your hospital?
Dr. Cuddy: I want you to cure him without committing any more felonies.
House: I can't do my job when you're gonna tie my hands like that!
Dr. Cuddy: (to House) Fifty-one weeks of the year I let you run around like a monkey in a banana factory.
Evan: What's the test say?
House: As I suspected! You have significant losses in the upper-right quadrant of your visual field.
Evan: Are you serious?
House: No. It's a joke. Two guys go into a bar and one has significant losses in the upper-right quadrant of his visual field, and the other guy says "You're going to need an MRI to determine the type and location of your tumor."
Dr. Cuddy: (to Cameron) The last time I checked the ER, you had the best kept charts in the building. The last time I checked the fourth floor janitor's closet, I found House's charts.
Dr. Cuddy: I'm taking back the TV.
House: I saved his life!
Dr. Cuddy: That wasn't the deal.
House: But the contract clearly stated "no takesy-backsies."
Dr. Foreman: You kidnapped him?
House: It's sweet that I haven't lost the ability to surprise you.
Evan: So the nut job was right.
Kutner: He usually is.
Evan: He said I was dying.
Kutner: (pause) He's wrong a lot too. That's why we do these tests.
Evan: You're that nutjob doctor that keeps calling my publicist.
House: Actually, I'm the nutjob head of diagnostic medicine.
Dr. Cuddy: The accreditation board is here to protect us and our patients, so in dealing with the on-site inspector, please behave as if it wasn't also an enormous pain in the ass.
Dr. Cuddy: Why is House driving a limo?
Dr. Foreman: Don't know.
Dr. Cameron: Don't have to know.
Dr. Chase: Don't… care?
Evan: How can you watch that stuff?
House: 'Cause it's awesome.
Evan: It's preposterous. Not one real moment since I've been on the show.
House: As opposed to shows that represent the world exactly like it is. Like… I can't think of any.
House: I just parked a town car in an ambulance bay. And instead of ripping me one, Cuddy acted like she didn't know me. It's either an inspection or an aneurysm.
Evan: You lied to me?
House: I kidnapped you. You're surprised that I lied to you?
House: Kutner. Leave the room, wait 30 minutes, come back and tell her the test was negative.
Kutner: Is it okay if I use that time to do the test?
House: Get out of here.
Marie Actress: Are you really a doctor?
House: "Glioblastoma." Need more proof?
Marie Actress: Well, I asked him on a date last month. We went out a few times, but we weren't right for each other.
House: Too small or too large?
Marie Actress: Is that medically relevant?
House: I'm a doctor, and it's relevant to me, so yes.
(preparing to test for impotency)
House: We don't need to wait for a reflex. If he can't get engorged the way God intended, he can't get engorged.
Dr. Cameron: I'm not showing him my boobs.
House: Lack of response to your chest tells us nothing. Thirteen, show him… (sighs) Where can I find a decent set of knockers around here?
Dr. Cameron: Your porn's in the second drawer.
Dr. Cuddy: You keep food in the morgue?
House: If I keep it in the lounge, everyone else eats it.
Dr. Cuddy: That's 'cause it's everyone else's food.
House: Oh, I thought it was just everyone else's bags.
House: Dr. House. I don't think we've met.
Dr. Conway: Dr. Jamie Conway. I've heard your name.
House: Most people have. It's also a noun.
Dr. Wilson: I want a water bed.
House: Wow.
Dr. Wilson: I've always wanted one. I know it's ridiculous. It's just… there's something nice about the thought of being rocked to sleep in water. No mocking? No Freudian analysis of how the waterbed is a great big vagina that I want crawl into?
House: I'm ignoring you because you make me sad.
When House is in Evan Greer's dressing room, he holds an Emmy Award in his hands, pretenting to be receiving it. Hugh Laurie has won two Golden Globes and has been nominated for two Emmys (2005 & 2007), but never actually won an Emmy Award.
