Unicorns and Such
"Tell it to me again!"
"I'm glad my pain amuses you, House, but I know what I saw."
"Why were you standing on the file cabinet anyway?"
"I told you. I was changing a light bulb in the track lights."
"New invention, Wilson, it's called a step ladder."
"Which YOU left on the balcony, and the rain rusted it."
"So … where was the penguin again?"
"It was a FLAMINGO, House. It landed on the balcony – by the rusty ladder ..."
"And the force of its landing knocked you on your butt?"
"It … surprised me. I stepped backwards and went too far."
"I always miss the good stuff!"
"Yes, it was quite entertaining. Next time I break a bone I'll invite you to the show."
"Please do! Front row seat! Maybe you could ride in on a unicorn?"
"Shut up and turn up the tv volume, the news is starting."
