"Well, it's seven. I'll see you tomorrow, okay? Be sure to take your pills twice a day."
"Thank you, Dr. Wilson."
"No problem."
"…"
"Yes?"
"Something's been on your mind lately, right?"
"Why would you care?"
"Because people's personal lives are wrecking their jobs."
"Where did you here that from?"
"I read an article of it a few months ago."
"Oh. Did scientists prove that er…theory?"
"I'm really hazy about the details so I'm not really sure. I'll take a shot in the dark here, I'll say yes."
"Hah, well, read that article again."
"Forget the article."
"Why?"
"Because something's on your mind."
"Well, yeah. A friend of mine went missing a few days ago."
"Why haven't you filed a missing person report yet?"
"I don't know…well, see you, Jack. I'll see you tomorrow. Take care."
"Bye, Dr. Wilson."
"Wilson?"
"Yeah, Lisa?"
"…what are you going to do?"
"What…what are you talking about?"
"About House."
"Oh, well, I don't know for sure. I'm in a rut right now."
"You're not the only one."
"I know you used to like House, Lisa but--"
"It's not House."
"Is it…Lucas?"
"No."
"Your mother?"
"No. It's not…it's someone more important."
"Who?"
"Rachel."
"W-What happened? Did something go wrong?"
"She's missing."
"W-What?! Is this why you didn't come to work until now? It's nearly nine!"
"I know, I know. I've been crying. I've filed a report on her."
"When…when did you last see her?"
"A day ago. With this weather…Oh, dear Lord, Wilson."
"It's…it's okay. It's okay. I promise I'll find her."
"…"
"Without a doubt, I will…don't worry. Just go back to Lucas and I'll handle things."
"Please don't overdo this…please."
"I won't. Why must you keep mentioning that to me? I'm not a child."
"Lisa…Jack. Oh, God, I feel so--ah! H-Hey! Let go! Let go of me! H-Help!! Someo--"
"Shut up. We're in an alley, shut up."
"Mmph!! Mhhmmp! Hpmh hmm!"
"What's that? I can't hear you."
"Ah! Fuah! What the hell?! Who do you think you are?!"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"You're freezing. Hey…l-let go."
"…"
"Let go! Do you want me to help you or not? I'm a doctor, I can help you! What're you doing here? It's probably one of the coldest places in Princeton…"
"Hah…ah…"
"Are you okay?"
"No."
"…well, w-why?"
"You moron, I'm cold."
"Your clothes are all tattered, how long have you been like this?"
"A few days."
"Oh…well, then. Wait. Show me your hands."
"Why?"
"I just want to look."
"There, you've taken a look."
"They're in decent shape...a bit pale, kind of blue. Tell me the precise number of days you've been here."
"…"
"Tell me. Go on."
"Hi! Dr. House, I have--"
"W--Rachel?"
"Uncle Jimmy!"
"Your mother's looking for you, wh-what--House?"
"What? You can't tell your best buddy under all this massive clothing? They're a bit of an effort to walk into and stuff but--"
"No, no, nooooooo. Y-You!! And you! What are you guys doing here?!"
"I founded Dr. House. Don't be mad at me!"
"You should be with Lucas and Cuddy. And you! You should be with me! In my apartment!"
"God…PMS, much?"
"House! Did you take Rachel yesterday?"
"No! He didn't! Mommy was crying about him and I went to look for him!"
"You shouldn't have done that. How--how are you two keeping warm?"
"Dr. House made a bright, shiny thing from wood!"
"…wha--?"
"Fire."
"…okay. But, you're already exposed to the cold. You two could have hypothermia. C'mon, let's get back to the hospital."
"No!"
"Wha--why?"
"Dr. House don't wanna go!"
"You know, for a toddler, her grammar sucks."
"You…shut up. You…your mom's afraid. She's scared."
"And she doesn't care about me?"
"What did I just say?"
"I'm awesome?"
"No. Rachel, please, come on."
"No!"
"You're being difficult!"
"Or you just are."
"My God, House. Shut up. I'm trying to help you and you're giving me crappy excuses."
"Oh, quit it. You're getting annoying again. Let the kid have some fun."
"The kid has a name! It's like you don't care about her at all!"
"…"
"Well, thank God you finally have the tendency to shut up. Please, Rachel…just…"
"Dr. House wants to stay here…"
"…what? Listen, Rachel, Dr. House is an arrogant, malevolent piece of sh--poo. And you shouldn't stay here because he has to."
"But I wanna stay with him."
