Suspect Interview - 12PM, Police HQ, Detective R. C. Vintar
Dr: House and I have been best friends for years. I wouldn't do such at thing to him, ever.
Detective: I've been told that your relationship with House led to you doing a lot for him??
Dr: Well, yeh. House asks a bit of me, and I'm always there for him, but I understand that he trusts me as a friend as well. He just expresses that in a different way than to how I do.
Detective: What are some examples??
Suspect thinks for a moment.
Dr: Um, well, whenever he has a problem, he always comes to my office and tells me about it. It's like I listen to him, and understand him, unlike some people that don't as much.
Detective: Ok then. So what were you doing at 9PM last night??
Dr: I was out having dinner with Cameron from 7PM til 9:30PM. We had planned to go to House's place afterwards, but when we got there we..
Suspect moves around uncomfortably.
Detective: You found Dr. House, unconscious, in his apartment??
Dr: Yeh, we did.
Detective: Alright then, thank you for your time.
Dr: Thank you.

PPTH - After Wilson's Interview
Detective Vintar sighed as she left Wilson's office. She had recorded the interview, while questioning Wilson, but had found a story none different to Cameron's.
"How'd it go??" Detective Petrie said, taking a bite out of his sausage roll he had bought from the cafeteria. He then chucked a heated packaged sausage roll to Detective Vintar.
"Same story." She said, opening the sausage roll from it's package and taking a bite from it.
Detective Petrie sighed. "Damn it." He said, eating the last of his sausage roll.
"Hmm, I know", Detective Vintar said, chewing on her sausage roll.
"Ok then. Well that worked. I still don't trust the two of them. I just don't know why, though." Petrie said, walking away from Wilson's office, Vintar following.
"Yeh, I feel the same." Vintar replied, as Petrie pulled out the list of suspects from his suitcase, which was hanging over his right shoulder.
Petrie read off the piece of paper. "Ok, well, we still have Dr. Foreman, Cuddy and Chase left. They're all involved with House some way or another." He said, as he put the piece of paper back into his suitcase.
"Let's start with Dr. Foreman, and work our way through after that." Vintar said, taking another bite of her sausage roll.

House's Hospital Room
Cuddy sat by House's bed, squeezing his hand tightly. Worried about what had happened to House the night before, she sat beside him and gave him support.
"Oww, you're squeezing my hand really hard." House murmured.
Cuddy laughed. "At least you felt it, then. You went through a lot last night, you just need to relax."
"Yeh, I overheard the doctors talking about how I got shot in the leg. At least it was my good one, wasn't it??" He said, wincing slightly as he remembered the pain from being shot.
"That's true. You also have a few bruises from being beaten up, and you were unconscious for a few hours, i'm surprised you aren't complaining about the pain." Cuddy said, squeezing House's hand again.
"They gave me some painkillers. Duh, Cuddy." He said, as Cuddy realized she had made a stupid remark.
Before Cuddy could reply to what House had said, the door was opened by a nurse. "We need some help in the ER, there's a young woman that's been brought in. She's been beaten up, and seems to have been drugged, so she's unconscious." The nurse said, as she closed the door and went back to the ER.
"Ok, House. I need to go. I'll be back later, and I'll check up on you then." Cuddy said, as she stood up, bent over, and gave House a quick kiss on the cheek, and walked out of the hospital room.
Cuddy ran into the ER, still thinking of House. She had been so worried over the past night about him, and was so glad he was feeling better. Still quite anxious to know who would do such a thing to House, she shrugged it off as she entered the hospital room, as she knew that lots of people hated House.
As she entered the hospital room, she was led to a bed where a woman lay unconscious. Looking at her face, Cuddy knew immediately who it was, and by putting two and two together, her worries from what had happened to House the night before arised again. It was Cameron.
