ACT 2: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Bathroom
SCENE ONE:
Hallway, we see the back of House as he limps down the hall. Camera comes up behind him and passes him around the side, to see Cameron coming around the corner just as he does. They crash into each other. Cameron's papers go flying.
CAMERON: Sorry, Dr. House. I didn't see you.
HOUSE: I'll wear reflective clothing next time.
CAMERON: (picks up her papers.) No need, just wear a bell around your neck. (She looks confused)
HOUSE: I hope I didn't hurt you. (He looks confused.)
(They walk their separate ways. As the camera fades to black)
VOICEOVER: House and Cameron nearly took a header. They always say two heads are better than one. But who's head is who's? Could there be more to this collision than meets the eye?
SCENE TWO:
Ladies room. Cameron is at the sink, rubbing her head. Cuddy is washing her hands.
CUDDY: Are you alright?
CAMERON: Why, you wanna kiss it and make it better?
CUDDY: (doing a double take) What?
CAMERON: I think I'd better go home. I can't do clinic duty today.
CUDDY: (Confused) You don't have clinic duty today.
CAMERON: Right. (Hesitates, obviously thinking hard). Um, gotta go. (Runs into one of the stalls.)
SCENE THREE:
Men's room. House walks in and looks at the urinals for a moment. Then he goes over to one and starts going to the bathroom. Wilson comes out of a stall and heads to the sink to wash his hands.
WILSON: Hey House.
HOUSE: (Jumps, then quickly pulls up his fly) Hey. What are you doing in here?
WILSON: Um, I like to come in here and contemplate life. How about you? (He's toweling off his hands now)
HOUSE: Nothing.
WILSON: (confused) OK. Well, good talking to you.
HOUSE: Yeah, you too.
(Wilson leaves the bathroom. Close up of House's face. He looks puzzled. He knows something is wrong, but can't quite figure it out yet.)
