Dr. Gregory House: So either we find the answer at autopsy or...Dr. Eric Foreman: What?Dr. Gregory House: I got nothing.
Dr. James Wilson: You're scared because nothing excites you. Fun doesn't excite you. Puzzles don't excite you. What's left? And I was saying you're right. You're upset. You're depressed. Everything's going to taste a little worse right now, but... it'll pass.Dr. Gregory House: It's understandable. You're scared because you think I'm falling apart. And you're trying to convince yourself that you're overreacting.
Dr. Lisa Cuddy: Pretend time's been going on long enough.Dr. Gregory House: I don't have a medical license. All I can do is pretend.Dr. Lisa Cuddy: And I'm going to have payroll send over some pretend checks starting tomorrow.
House is a dictator. Second in command is a meaningless position.
