Maddy Ralphean : [to House] I'm 4' 1". That's 1.5 canes in metric.
Dr. Gregory House : You don't look a day over four feet. I saw in the file that her dad was normal size.
Maddy Ralphean : It's average-sized.
Dr. Gregory House : Compared to you, I'm sure he was huge. Did he have a fetish or did he just fall in love with your long-legged soul?
Maddy Ralphean : He grew up in the circus. Said I reminded him of home. Seems like you're the one with the fetish.
Dr. Gregory House : Certainly curious about the logistics. Did you stand on a table?
Dr. Allison Cameron : House!
Maddy Ralphean : Pretty much, he laid flat and spinned me.
Abigail Ralphean : Mom...
-
Maddy Ralphean : [to House] Are you high?
Dr. Gregory House : Higher than you.
-
Maddy Ralphean : I've dealt with worse. Being different, you get used to people's idiocy. Still beats the hell out of actually being an idiot.
[House smiles]
Maddy Ralphean : What?
Dr. Gregory House : Care to go for a spin?
-
Maddy Ralphean : [to House] My daughter and I both have cartilage hair hypoplasia. Think you can make a pun out of that?
Dr. Gregory House : Yes, but I don't want to be insensitive.
[to Cuddy]
Dr. Gregory House : She's got a bit of a short fuse, hasn't she?

Maddy Ralphean : You have no idea what's wrong with my daughter.
Dr. James Wilson : We have several theories.
Maddy Ralphean : What does doctor House think?
Dr. James Wilson : He's... he had to go home sick.
Maddy Ralphean : My daughter may be dying and he's gone home with the sniffles?
Dr. James Wilson : Oh, he's not...
Maddy Ralphean : He was the only one who seemed to have any idea what was wrong with her. He better be really damn sick.
Dr. James Wilson : He is.

Maddy Ralphean : [to House] If my daughter doesn't want to choose the easy path, I won't force her to.
Dr. Gregory House : Then you're a lousy mom. You want your daughter to be a freak.
Maddy Ralphean : We're not freaks.
Dr. Gregory House : [sighs] You want her to overcome adversity.
Maddy Ralphean : Yes.
Dr. Gregory House : Then why stop at height? Poke a stick in her eye. Imagine how interesting she'll be then.
