• Dr. Lisa Cuddy : [Cuddy is in her office, crying. Wilson comes in]  I'm busy.

  Dr. Wilson : Um, what I mean by "Are you okay?" is "What the hell did House do?"

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : Nothing.

  Dr. Wilson : What did he say?

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : I've seen House been rude a thousand times, usually to achieve something. I have never seen him be mean just because he can.

  Dr. Wilson : Seriously? What did he say?

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : [sighs]  Nothing. Doesn't matter.

  Dr. Wilson : Well, I've seen House be rude to you a thousand times, but I've never seen it get it to you.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : People think that House has no inner censor. The fact is he holds himself back because when he wants to hurt, he knows just where to poke a sharp stick.

  [laughs wrily] 

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : When I see people with their kids, it's so natural. It's like they have an instruction book imprinted on their genes.

  [voice breaking] 

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : Maybe I just didn't get a copy. Maybe my wanting to be a mother is like a tone-deaf person wanting to sing opera or a paraplegic who wants to...

  Dr. Wilson : Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

  [sighs] 

  Dr. Wilson : Well, I see what you mean about House poking the right spot.

• Dr. Gregory House : [House is playing his PSP in the doctor's lounge when Wilson comes in and starts making a sandwich]  What are you doing here?

  Dr. Wilson : I work here.

  Dr. Gregory House : You passively-aggressively gave up your practice.

  Dr. Wilson : I have clinic hours.

  Dr. Gregory House : Now you're passively-aggressively spreading peanut butter. Big sign around your neck saying, "Wilson doesn't have enough cash for the cafeteria."
