A/N Why this amused me so much it is hard to say but this piece was inspired by a comment a user made on the Television Without Pity House forum. I couldn't let it go and so here for your reading pleasure is Operation. Standard operating rules apply. I don't own HOUSE MD or any of the Super Six. I am not making any money off of this but if you happen to be from Fox and like it and want to give me a job my ETS date is December 2008. Please read and review. Thanks
OPERATION
"Is the patient ready for surgery?"
"Roger that, the patient is prepped, oxygen is good, the patient is sound asleep."
"Excellent, hand me the tweezers."
"You have to draw a card first."
"Fine," with a sigh House removed the top card from the pile," Prepare to lose Jimmy my boy."
"In your dreams, now remove the damn part."
Slowly House lowered the tweezers to the patient's funny bone, carefully avoiding the outer metal area. His hands shook slightly as he lifted the plastic piece out of the board. Free of the metal outer edge, House triumphantly showed the piece to Wilson.
"My turn." Wilson drew a card. Breathing slowly he lowered the tweezers to the board and carefully removed the Charlie horse," Wilson 1, House 1 Your turn."
House drew a card and with precision removed the patient's Adam's apple. With a flourish he held it up for Wilson to see," House 2 Wilson 1."
"Not for long." Wilson drew a card but as he reached down to remove the water on the knee his hand slipped BZZZ."
"Jesus Wilson, now I see why you went into Oncology instead of surgery."
"Shove it House."
So engrossed were the two men in their game that they failed to hear the rapidly approaching sound of heels on tile. House was just leaning in for his next move when Doctor Cuddy burst through the door of the Diagnostics Office," House! Wilson! What the hell are you two doing!"
BZZ- House looked up at the irate Dean of Medicine his blue eyes boring holes in Cuddy's face," You killed him." House stated bluntly.
"You are supposed to be downstairs in the Clinic. You were supposed to be down there an hour ago. Are you really going to tell me that you have been up here this whole time and what in God's name is up with those outfits?" Cuddy's voice was on the verge of a shriek as she scanned her head of Oncology and head of Diagnostics both dressed in surgical garb playing a children's game," You have five minutes…no you have two minutes to get down to that clinic and you will make up the past hour, the rest of your hours and two additional hours."
Turning to Wilson she pointed," And you." Wilson tried but failed mightily to look innocent," You know better than to encourage this type of behavior. I want you down in that Clinic as well. You will give me an additional two hours as well."
"Yes ma'am." Both men headed out the door.
"It's for the best you would have lost anyways."
"Shove it House."
The End
