House M.D.2004

Dr. Lisa Cuddy:
You didn't expect me to say yes to rupturing his aorta, did you?

Dr. Gregory House:
Since I didn't ask, I wasn't expecting you to say anything at all.

Dr. Lisa Cuddy:
You have no reason to believe this will save his life.

Dr. Gregory House:
Really? No reason. None at all. I'm just planning on cracking open his chest, blowing up his heart, what, to pad his bill? Or you think that since you broke my heart I want to break his?

Dr. Lisa Cuddy:
...I don't know. I think maybe you're looking for something that can excite you, fill a void. And it's affecting your judgment.

Dr. Gregory House:
You're right, I am. But my damaged, depressed, drug-addled judgment is still better than yours or any other doctor in this hospital. And my team is going to do this procedure and save his life. So, you can either have security arrest me and my team, or you can get the hell out of my way... And she caves.
