House: Histories
Dr. Foreman is convinced that a homeless woman is faking seizures just so she can get a free meal. However, Dr. Wilson is determined to keep her from falling between the cracks of the system. Soon, her symptoms actually do get worse, and House and his team feel that getting an accurate history of the patient will be the key to solving the mystery. Foreman believes that she has contagious meningitis, but when he goes to tell her, she has disappeared. She soon returns, after being tasered by police, which ends up giving House a clue to the real diagnosis. Meanwhile, House is supposed to be helping two med students with their case studies, but chooses to blow them off with mixed results.

Episode Quotes
Dr. Wilson: Fake low blood sugar. Now that's acting.
Dr. Cameron: A twitch could indicate a brain tumor.
Dr. Foreman: Or about a dozen other things. Come on, there’s two things homeless people are good at-–getting sick, and running scams. If you’re so worried about it being a brain tumor, get her an MRI. When she’s clear on that, then you can bounce her out of here.
Dr. Wilson: Well, you’ve got her all figured out.
Dr. Foreman: I’ve known a lot more homeless people than you have.
Dr. Wilson: Yes, you’ve got that going for you.

Dr. House: Do I need a better reason?
Dr. Foreman: Most people wouldn’t, you do.
Dr. Foreman: Okay. Even if she’s not faking, what’s so fascinating about this case?

Dr. House: Hey, (Foreman) knows more homeless people then any of us. Go check out the ‘hood, dog.
Dr. Foreman: That's why you insisted on the MRI? So you could remove the surgical pin from her arm?

Julia: I thought you were supposed to be listening to our patient histories?
Dr. House: No, I'm supposed to be teaching you. If I can do that without listening, more power to me.
Dr. House: No, I'm supposed to be teaching you. If I can do that without listening, more power to me.
Dr. Wilson: You don’t walk out of a room with ten milligrams of Haldol in your system, you don’t walk at all.
Dr. Foreman: It was ten milligrams, I gave it to her...
