CHASE'S POV:

7:20: Bad thing happens: I set curtains on fire making tea. Manage to douse curtains, but succeed in melting drying wallpaper paste off of wall. Landlady will kill me.

7:45: Great thing happens: Get call from Cameron. Am informed that last night was lots of fun and she is ending shift the same time I am. After hanging up, I dance around and go “woo!” until Mrs. Petska downstairs bangs on ceiling with broom. Love pissing off Petska.

3:10: Terrible thing happens: I go into Dr. Wilson's office. Discover him face-down on floor, not moving. Force does not wake him up. Shone light in eyes, poked him, checked responses—is seven on Glasgow coma scale. Seven! House gets him an MRI. Dr. Wilson has a subdural hematoma caused by recent trauma. Very recent: two days ago or sooner. How the hell did he get that?

4:17: Excellent thing happens: Cameron comes into office where I am sitting alone doing paperwork. Informs me that winter break is coming up and she will follow me. Overjoyed to learn that we will be going to Gstaad. (WOO!)

4:20: Horrible thing happens: While prepping Dr. Wilson for emergency hematoma evacuation surgery, Foreman discovers fresh and healed sutures in inconspicuous places all over Wilson’s body. Lacerations smooth, straight, deep enough to draw blood. Dr. Cuddy bursts out into tears. Cameron looks like she will join in. Foreman sighs and looks away. House looks grim and discovers bruises and many half-healed minor breaks and sprains all over body, covered with concealer. Oldest, cracked rib, is about two years old, but has been continually re-broken.

Dr. Cuddy says, "What started two years ago?"

Cameron says, "He got married two years ago."

Foreman says, "God damn it. Well, at least we know where the hematoma is from."

I say, "Bloody Nora. Get her in jail."

House says nothing.

Cuddy calls the cops.

House tells everyone to get out of the room. He needs to be alone with friend.

Peeked in. Saw him stroking Wilson's hand and crying.

5:49: Foreman comes out of operating room looking very worried. Informs us that evacuation surgery successful in removing hematoma, but Dr. Wilson just went down to a six.
