Lisa Edelstein: Dr. Lisa Cuddy

Quotes 

• Dr. Gregory House : [comes into Cuddy's office]  Okay, fine! I'll father your child, first you gotta write me a Vicodin prescription. Just so I can get through the foreplay.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : How many days do you have left?

  Dr. Gregory House : Uh, I could probably get through this maybe...

  [tilts head to the right] 

  Dr. Gregory House : next minute or so.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : And your coming to me means your lackeys actually stood up to you. I'm impressed.

  Dr. Gregory House : Yes, their cowardice is inspiring.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : Well, you should be thanking them. If they caved, it'd give the cops evidence that you intimidated underlings to feed your addiction.

  Dr. Gregory House : I hate writing "Thank You" notes. Would it be weird if I asked Cameron to write them?

  [Cuddy stares at him; she pulls out her prescription booklet] 

  Dr. Gregory House : You're hooking me up?

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : Unfortunately, if I cut you off, it'd give the cops evidence that you don't really need the pain meds.

  Dr. Gregory House : I knew that cleavage was a smokescreen. You're a genius.

  [reaches for the script with a grimace on his face and also a bent right arm] 

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : You can't lift your arm?

  Dr. Gregory House : You can't pee standing up? Gimme.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : You been doing physio? Maybe you pulled...

  Dr. Gregory House : Yeah, been training for Pants-Off Dance-Off. Gimme the script.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : Your shoulder problem isn't physical.

  Dr. Gregory House : Well, we'll find out if you ever give me the...

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : What's new? What's different? Any big changes in your life recently? Fight with the wife maybe?

  [House looks at her] 

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : It's good. Means your shoulder's a human being. It's a start.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : [smiles]  I'm right, right?

  Dr. Gregory House : Yeah! Just not about me.

  [begins to limp off, leaving Cuddy still holding onto the script. He goes and snatches the script from Cuddy, and then limps outside]
