An obese 10-year-old girl presents with a heart attack. At first thinking it's an adverse reaction to diet pills, they ultimately uncover a much more deadly source of her illness. Also, House is also faced with a woman who will not accept a surgery for a 30 lb. tumor because she actually wants to remain overweight. Meanwhile, House is under orders from Vogler to fire one of his team. He finally makes a decision but Vogler doesn't accept it and demands he pick someone else, it leads House to suspect one of his own team members is giving inside information to Vogler.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Dr. Foreman: And you figure making her feel like crap would do her a world of good?
Dr. Chase: Yeah, if it gets her off the couch!
| House: Why would you support someone who screws up?
Dr. Cameron: Because I'm not insanely insecure. And because I can actually trust another human being. And I am not an angry misanthropic son of a bitch.
House: Sorry - you said you weren't angry.
| Lucille: I'm not pregnant!
House: Sorry, you don't get to make that call unless you have a stethoscope. Union rules.
| Dr. Foreman: Ten-year olds do not have heart attacks. It's got to be a mistake.
House: Right. The simplest explanation is she's a 40-year old lying about her age. Maybe an actress trying to hang on.
| Dr. Cameron: No plastic surgeon in his right mind is going to give a 10-year old liposuction.
Dr. Chase: Have you ever met a plastic surgeon who was in their right mind?
| Chase: No, society tells you you have to be thin to be attractive. And guess what, that’s what attractive means: that society likes looking at you.
| House: Men are pigs - you have nothing to worry about. They will pretty much have sex with anyone - young, old, heavy, thin, complete strangers, relatives.

| Dr. Foreman: Kids in my neighborhood used to call me 'Rerun.'
