I know, another chapter so soon? But I'm on a roll! And it's not a hoagie roll either! "Anything You Can Do" is from Annie Get Your Gun.
After standing a moment to ponder what in the world Cameron was doing, the two went back to what they were doing in the first place. Arguing.
"I told you, it's cancer!" Foreman yelled.
"No it's not! You're wrong" Chase began. He always enjoyed arguing with Foreman, mostly because he always knew that he was right and he would win. Foreman felt the same way. Foreman too, thought that he was always right. Foreman had tuned Chase out and finally noticed that Chase was in such a tizzy about what he thought their dying patient had, that he was spillng his coffee everywhere.
"I'm still right." Foreman laughed. Chase threw his now empty coffee mug on the table.
"Oh yeah? I can still do anything better than you can!"
"Wanna bet?"
"Yes I do. . ." Chase began not a moment too soon.

House walked in, stared at them both and walked out again. Chase whaped Foreman on the back of his head. Foreman kicked Chase in the shin. They were both upset and were hoping for a better reaction than that from their boss.
"You scared him away, Chase!" Foreman grumbled.
"Me! Were you even listening to yourself sing?" Chase laughed at the surprised look on Foreman's face as he walked out.
Whew! That was a long song, but it was worth it! The next one is coming soon!
