Dr. House: We just removed a screw from a guy's lung. Weird thing is, he didn't get better. Any idea what that means?
Dr. Wilson: It means you're not listening to me.
Dr. House: No, I'm ignoring you to make a point. There's a difference.
Dr. Wilson: The problem with that technique is I have no idea what point you're making.
