House M.D.2004

Dr. Eric Foreman:
[House is writing down something] What are you writing?

Dr. Gregory House:
Nothing.

Dr. Robert Chase:
If you know the diagnosis, why don't you...?

Dr. Gregory House:
[finishes writing] How are you gonna learn to swim unless I take off your floaties and throw you into shark-infested waters? [licks the envelope]

Dr. Allison Cameron:
You can't know what's wrong after a 30-second perusal of his file.

Dr. Gregory House:
Apparently, you can't. Now what's a game without rules? Uh, no tagbacks, no biting, you get one test each and the clock runs until lunch. [writes something on the envelope; walks over to the whiteboard] If I'm right, he'll still be alive. If I'm wrong, it's a very cruel game. [places the envelope on the whiteboard with a magnetic paperclip. On the envelope written is "THE GAME IS A ITCHY FOOT."]
