thanks for all the reviews guys~you're awesome!

Wilson and I were sitting on a bench inside the police station, waiting for Cuddy, when I had a Eureka moment.

"Wilson…were those women day care people?"

"I think they had a business in their house…."

I jumped up and dashed over to Sergeant Squat. "Can I use your phone book?"

Squat stared at me. "If it'll get you outta my hair, whatever." he pointed to the phone, a dilapidated yellow book was off to the side.

I ran back to Wilson and the mystery baby and grabbed him from Wilson's arms. I un zipped his coat, and sure enough, he was wearing a day care name on his shirt.

Sunshine Daycare

Name: Zack

"Thanks Zack," I said as I handed him back to Wilson. "We may just survive this day."

Wilson chuckled nervously. "Jack Bauer's longest day was nothing compared to this."

"That's because Jack Bauer never met Cuddy," I said as I dialed.

Tammy answered. She sounded a little shaky. "Hey whoever this is I can't talk now, got something to take care of…"

Just then Cuddy arrived. She grabbed my arm and jerked me around, hard. The phone flew from my hands as I was forced to stare into her very red, very angry face. "Gregory House, worm of this earth, where is my baby?!"

"Just a sec," I said. "I really have to take this call…if she hangs up…."

"You're arranging a date at a time like this?"

"No," I pushed her away and went back to the phone. "Tammy, are you still there?"

I heard a sniff. "Yes. Who is this?"

"Just sit down and listen closely,"

"OH MY GOSH, DO YOU HAVE ZACK? DO you want money or something cause I swear I don't have an extra cent.!"

"No, I have Zack. This is House, we met earlier, remember?"

Another sniff. "Yes."

"Do you have Ki…er, the baby I had with me earlier?"

"RACHEL!" Cuddy screamed. Sergeant Stubby scowled at us. Cuddy glared back so hard he cowered.

"Yes, she's fine. Oh my gosh, I was so worried…..!"

"OK, well I have Zack. I'll be to your place in fifteen minutes."

I hung up to the sound of relieved sobs.

"You'll have her in a min…….."

SLAP

"OUCH! That hurt!"

"That was just a taste of what's coming!" Cuddy furiously stalked out of the station, Wilson and I followed.

"I figured out where she is," I said.

"Good. Maybe now your death will be quick instead of long, and torturous."
