- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: [to House] I know one conversation isn't going to solve everything... but it's a start.
- [the curtain opens revealing Foreman]
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: It's a privacy curtain!
- Dr. Eric Foreman: Wasn't working.
- Officer Soltes: We sent a uni over to his apartment and the hospital.
- Dr. James Wilson: Yeah, he won't be there.
- Officer Soltes: Any ideas?
- Dr. James Wilson: When you find him, you're gonna arrest him?
- Officer Soltes: Is there some reason you think I shouldn't?
- Dr. James Wilson: [pause] Knowing him, he'll be in a bar. He'll find one that matches how he feels inside. It'll be the most dark, depressing hole you can find in New Jersey.
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: Are you asking me to file charges? Just give me the paperwork. If Greg House steps foot in my hospital, or comes anywhere near me - I want him thrown in jail!
- Dr. Gregory House: I was self-destructive. It won't happen again. I'm making changes. Stop doing stupid things.
- Dr. Chris Taub: Why are we even discussing this case? She lied to us. She's opened us up to malpractice.
- Dr. Gregory House: Our practice opens us up to malpractice.
- Dr. Gregory House: All we've done is fight.
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: No. All you've done is pull pranks or have temper tantrums with Wilson - never me! Marry mail order prostitutes. Make me go to your wedding.
- Dr. Gregory House: Dominka is a licensed sethetician.
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: YOU CUT OPEN YOUR OWN LEG!
- Dr. Robert Chase: House, you should relax. You had surgery this morning.
- Dr. Gregory House: Minor surgery, removing a drain.
- Dr. Robert Chase: Put there during major surgery.
- Dr. Gregory House: My doctor says it's okay as long as I don't leave my hospital bed.
- Dr. Chris Taub: Which doctor was that, Seuss or J?
- Dr. Gregory House: Nurse!
- Nurse Felicia: Dr. Hourani wrote it in his chart.
- Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley: I'm surprised he approved it.
- [pause]
- Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley: I'm more surprised you actually asked.
- Dr. Gregory House: I do things like that now. I'm making some changes.
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: We should talk about your leg.
- Dr. Gregory House: You think I have unresolved issues, and you are the unresolved issues.
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: Yes.
- [pause]
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: But I think it's more than that. Your life, your choices...
- Dr. Gregory House: I did it to fix my life. No, wait. No, I did it because I am a deeply unhappy person. No, I did it to get sympathy from you. I did it to piss you off. I did it because I'm not over you. Or I was over you and I was moving on. I did it because I wanna know what it's like not to be in pain. I did it because I wanna feel more pain.
- [pause]
- Dr. Gregory House: Whatever the reason, it was a bad reason and a bad idea. That's all that matters. Good lunch.
- Dr. James Wilson: [after approaching Cuddy's house, House returns to the car] What just happened?
- Dr. Gregory House: [Not looking at Wilson] Get out.
- Dr. James Wilson: What just happened?
- Dr. Gregory House: [House faces Wilson] Get out.
- Dr. James Wilson: [Wilson exits the car] House, what are you mad about? Just let it out. You'll feel better.
- Dr. Gregory House: You made a decision.
- Afsoun Hamidi: I changed my mind.
- Dr. Gregory House: Why?
- Afsoun Hamidi: Because there are more important things than...
- Dr. Gregory House: Than what? Than your brain? Your abilities? That's where everything comes from, any meaning in your life, any happiness.
- Afsoun Hamidi: Not all happiness.
- Dr. Gregory House: He's already left once. He's gonna leave you again. You don't need to depend on people who are gonna let you down.
- [pause]
- Dr. Gregory House: If you do this, you're pathetic hypocrite. You're saying that your whole life, all your work up until him was a pointless.
- Afsoun Hamidi: [pause] Why are you doing this?
- Officer Soltes: Was there any indication that something would happen?
- Dr. Lisa Cuddy: Yeah. Every moment I was with him. I was always waiting for something to happen... But this?
- Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley: [House dials someone] Who are you calling?
- [her mobile rings]
- Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley: Oh, of course.
- Dr. Gregory House: What are you wearing? Oh, I can see what you're wearing. Go to her room.
- [last lines]
- Bartender: You want another one?
- Dr. Gregory House: No, I think I've had enough. What do you think I should do today?
- Bartender: I don't know, go home?
- Dr. Gregory House: Not tonight.
- [pause]
- Dr. Gregory House: Cheers.
- Dr. Chris Taub: A nice cozy home for little Ruben.
- [Ruby glares at Taub]
- Dr. Chris Taub: It's a family name.
- Ruby: It's a sandwich.
- Dr. Chris Taub: Named for my family.
- Afsoun Hamidi: But this is a puzzle tailor-made for you. You don't know which of my symptoms are real, which are fake and which ones I'm not even telling you about. I know that intrigues you. Do you really want to end it now?
- Dr. Gregory House: ...No.
- Dr. Chris Taub: Sorry I ducked your calls. I keep making the same mistakes. But at some point...
- Rachel Taub: Chris... I'm pregnant.
- Dr. Chris Taub: I didn't expect that.
