4. Prooving the Wittiest
House walks down the hall, he heads towards the office.
Cuddy: House!
Suddenly House walks faster trying to avoid Cuddy, She catches up to him fast.
Cuddy: House!
House: Ohhhhh, what do you want! Don't you see im in a hurry to save my paitient!?
Cuddy: Your not in a hurry to save your paitient! You are trying to get away from me!
House: You!? come on! Do you think your that scarey!? Pffft, Cuddy, your such a jokester!
Cuddy: Funny.. but your not getting away with this! I have report from a clinic paitient you looked after yesterday, She told me you told her that the op...communist... was out to get her...Why must you insist on scareing my paitients!? Ive had it with the complaints!, ive had WAY to many of them! I have no choice but to suspend you from the case and your job for a month!
House: A MONTH!?... Howa-Howa- I mean... Wha-Wha! I cant help it! The girl was dumber then a 8 year old kid! What did you want me to do!? She came to my office telling me her head hurts... and it turns out it was the idiots glasses, she thought I was a Optimitrist!!, Who comes into a large building with a big sign "Princeton Plainsboro Teaching "HOSPITAL" full of sick paitients hook to catheders and whatnot and not think... that maybe... just maybe she was in the wrong building!?
Cuddy: We-We-Well you d-d-dont s-sound any smarter!! Your suspended one month, thats it, thats final! Nothing is going to change that! You got it!? Go home House, enjoy it!
House: Enjoy it!? This is what i enjoy, saving lifes!! This is one of my hobbies not other then my job! I love coming in this building day in and day out, bugging the crap out of my team, getting bossed around by my evil step mother! I got nothing else, i live alone... Im bored as hell without this job... Please... I cant believe im going to ask this... If you let me keep working.. Ill do a whole month of clinic work!
Cuddy suddenly laughs.
House: What's so funny?..
Cuddy: I knew you would crack eventually to do more clinic hours... it was the plan this whole time... i wasnt going to suspend you.. dont worry i agree, she is deffently a blonde that girl. You've been fooled... and thanks for the offer! Oh.. and talk to Cameron later.. I think it might be a good idea. Your a damn good doctor House, keep it that way huh? Now get back to saving your paitient.
House looks shocked, and knew he had been fooled by Cuddy. He has never seen her like this before, at least not this witty. but look relieved he can work... and puts his head down in shame and is finally calm.
House: Thank you..

House walks in to the confrence room. Wilson is there.
House: What are you doing here? Come to spectate my genius?
Wilson: No, Ive come to take over your paitient.
House: Oh no shes mine, I found her first! Finders keepers.
Wilson: At least let me on the case, you will need a Oncologist.
House: I would only need you if she has cancer... and my paitient doesnt have cancer!
Wilson: She does. I did a test, she suffers from Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Cancer of the organs. Its a high-grade cancer. It has already spread to every organ in her body, It terminal, im afraid your paitient is going to die.
House: No, its not Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Its something else, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma doest cause bleeding out of her nose, ears, mouth and eyes. Does anybody know what symptoms are in Non-Hodgkin lymphoma?
House starts writing on the white board.
Wilson: Unexplained fever, weight loss, in some cases anorexia.
Cameron: The host could also get, Itchy skin, her eyes would be red.
House: Great, what are the causes?
Chase: It's not exactly known, but studies show there assoisiated with virus. Such as Helicobacter bacteria. The immune system weakens, being AIDS related.
Foreman: But we tested her for AIDS, she may have a T-lymphotropic virus. Epstein-Barr virus are two infectious agents that increase the chance of developing Non Hodgkin's lymphoma .
House: Great, and did we find anything like that in our mother?
Cameron: No, but just because the symptoms havnt occured yet doesnt mean it wont start soon. Wilson tested and it was positive.
House: Well he needs to check it again, cause its not Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Wilson, needs to get his facts straight before we kill our paitient, by giving her the wrong treatment. We would of gave Mrs. No-fun-mom radiation treatment all for nothing. Test it again, The CT scan might of got it wrong, its rare.. i know but, just to humor me.. do it again, except this time do a MRI, If she has Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, your right, and the paitient dies. If im right we find another alternitive and cure and boot our paitient back home grounding jr in no time.
Everyone leaves the room, except Wilson.
Wilson: I hope your right about this, and not let it be because you dont want me to be right. I know your obsessed about solving this on your own, but when it comes to a paitients life in hands, make it professional, not prooving whos right or wrong.
House: Oh your too good!!, you got me! I just want to proove to you your wrong just so i can laugh in your face. na-na-na-na-nah! Wilson is wrong! May the best doctor win. Now you going to do the MRI or are you going to let the paitient do it herself?
Wilson: Your Unbelievable, but a damn good doctor, I just hope your right. Your a good friend, ive enjoyed working with you all these years.
Wilson put his hand out waiting for House to shake his hand.
House: Thanks... Your not so bad yourself, but im better... ill buy you a beer tonight if im wrong, but if your wrong, you buy me, and im not going to shake your hands who knows what you been doing with it.
Wilson: House!, I wash my hands, im a Oncologist for christ sake!
House: Yeah thats what you always say.
Wilson looks at him frustrated then walks off.

Now its in the MRI room, Foreman, Cameron, and Chase are doing the tests on Claire.
Foreman: So how did House react when you told him you got a job offer in London?
Cameron: He practically begged me to stay, but i dont care Ive taken his insults long enough. Im going thats the final straw.
Foreman: Really!? HOUSE!? BEGGING for you to stay!? Thats unbelievable. What did he say exactly?
Cameron: He admitted hes a self-centered ass, which i agree with! He told me i was a good doctor, and belonged here, cause he thinks i make good coffee and im a good too-shoes with the paitients. Then he asked if it was, cause i wanted another date with him, then i would stay! Im over him! Why would I want to date such a ass like him!?
Foreman: Cameron... well i HAVE noticed latley the way you been looking at him... I think you still like House, and how badly he begged you to stay, i get this suspicion our sadistic bastard has a crush on you too. Maybe the reason he acts that way toward you, cause he likes being himself, and doesnt want anyone to know that he can love and be a... nice... person.. I think your in love with House, and you have been the entire time, even when you two were together. Isnt it obvious, always making smart remarks about you two, making comments if you guys had sex or not.. All clues point in, and dont forget with Stacey, you told me she doesnt deserve him.
Chase: Foreman is right... It all makes sense... Ive noticed it all too, why dont you just tell him? Tell him its that serious, and get him to believe that he can love you too, and if he continues to be a ass.. go. But at least try to make a accomplisment.
Cameron: I... cant.. I gave him a chance, he just through it all in my face. He made it clear he doesnt like me... Yes... Im still in love with House... but what can i do? He probably doesnt love me.. Im sorry Chase, i was in love with him even when me and you were together.
Chase: Yeah dont worry about it, i understand completley,.. you just do what you need to do, thats all that matters.
The results came in.
Foreman: No way... House was right... the results are negitive for Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, but there is something here... Do you remember the toxin screening we did.
Chase: Yeah?
Foreman: It came up wrong too... Its positive...
Cameron: Then what is it?
Foreman: Im not sure, but we better figure it out real soon...
