"Because she's happy?"
"No. because I am."
"House, that's---"
"Ironic, weird, crazy?"
"I was going to say, normal."
"For now. We're in the honeymoon. Our brains are flooded with endorphines. Once she snaps out of it, where does that leave us?"
"In an adult relationship."
"Name one thing that Cuddy and I have in common besides work. Long term relationships are based on compatibility and right now we only have sex...."
"So instead of enjoying the honeymoon phase, you've decided to skip it entirely."
"I need to find something we both like doing; besides each other."
"Right. Or you could just talk to her about it."
"No, then she'll start pretending to like things that she really doesn't just to make me feel better which will make her feel even worse which won't be my fault so I'll resent her and that won't be her fault so she'll resent me. At least with my plan I'll get my one a day with iron to the bitter end."
- House calls his team back into the hospital to figure out what is going on with one of his favorite authors. "You and Taub do a full workup and observe her overnight see if she has another seizure." He turns to Chase. "You can go."
Taub objects. "Why does he get the night off?"
"Because he brought a smokin hot babe."
"I have plans with my wife."
"Yeah, nice try. But you hate your personal life." Then he turns to Foreman who is about to object, "And you obviously don't have one."
- House takes Cuddy out on his expedition to the patient's home and Cuddy actually ends up helping him. Later when Wilson finds out, he explains to House why this is good. "She's committing crimes. What does that tell you?"
"I'm a horrible influence"
"True. A horrible influence she's reaching out to. She's looking for ways to connect. You do have something in common, you're both trying to find things in common."
"I'm not finding them."
- Wilson has told Cuddy about House's anxiety and it comes out after she tries to tell him she likes something he likes and he knows its a lie. she says, "I'm not going to dump you because we like different food or books or music. On the other hand, I might dump you if you don't talk to me when you have a problem with our relationship."
"I know you blieve that now but the fact is---"
"Who cares about common? Common is boring. It's..." She searches for the word and comes up with, "common. I like being with you. You make me better. Hopefully, I make you better. What we have is uncommon. And I've never been happier."
