Episode Quotes |
| |
Dr. Chase: You actually fired your girlfriend?
Dr. Foreman: Yes. You two are both competent, and I know I can work with you.
Dr. Chase: You really do know how to woo.
| (seeing Foreman, Chase, and Cameron)
Dr. House: Oh, my God. It's three years ago. Does that mean I'm still crazy?
| Dr. Cuddy: You're in charge, he sits in on all the differentials. Until you get your license back, this is all unofficial. No procedures, no patient contact.
Dr. House: Think I can probably deal with that last one.
| Dr. Wilson: How was your first day of school?
Dr. House: I didn't pee once in the sandbox.
Dr. Wilson: How was it with Cuddy?
Dr. House: What did you think I was talking about?
| Dr. Wilson: It's just a wild coincidence that he thought you were a rude jerk.
Dr. House: Come on. Give me the benefit of the doubt. You said he's a jerk. I barely talked.
Dr. Wilson: You talked!

Analysis |
| |
TItle
The title essentially is a triple reference to the events of the episode, referring not just to 1) the patient, but 2) the tyrannical downstairs neighbor which House and Wilson have to deal with; and 3) Foreman, who acts in a dictatorial manner and is forced to face the consequences of standing by his diagnosis of Dibala's condition.
