House M.D. 2x17

All In

Season 2, Episode 17

* Cuddy: You might want to spend a little more time paying attention to your cards, and a little less time staring at my breasts.
   House: They don't match, either.


* House: Hey, how's that anal fissure? Did it heal yet, or is it still draining? Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you came back for second's. I figured that after that girl in the stairwell, you'd be done for the night.
   Chase: He's joking!
   House: No Adam's apple, small hands. It's no surprises this time.
   A girl: I'll, uh, see you later.
   House: Got a case.
   Chase: Well, you could've just said that. You didn't have to screw with me.
   House: Yeah, but if I didn't screw with you, you'd spend the whole night thinking you might get laid. Which means you'd be useless. Better to extinguish all hope.


* House: Good.
   Chase: But the platelets are dropping.
   House: Even better.
   Chase: Why? It means he's getting sicker.
   House: It's new. New is good. Because old ended in death.

* Wilson: Obsessionis dangerous.
   House: Only if you're on a wooden ship and your obsession is a whale. I think I'm in the clear.
   Wilson: You do realize it's a metaphor?
   House: You do realize that the point of metaphors is to scare people from doing things by telling them that something much scarier is going to happen than what will really happen. God, I wish I had a metaphor to explain that better...


* Wilson: Are you going to call?
   House: You know, relative to its size, the barnacle has the largest penis of any animal.
