There's a "me" though, if you jumble it up.This is a long one, but it's a great sample of the show's writing and wit (I copied it from IMBd, they have a bunch of these):Dr. House: [to the crowd in the walk-in clinic's waiting area] Hello, sick people and their loved ones! In the interest of saving time and avoiding a lot of boring chitchat later, I'm Doctor Gregory House; you can call me "Greg." I'm one of three doctors staffing this clinic this morning.Dr. Cuddy: Short, sweet, grab a file.Dr. House: This ray of sunshine is Doctor Lisa Cuddy. Doctor Cuddy runs this whole hospital, so unfortunately she's much too busy to deal with you. I am a board-certified diagnostician with a double specialty of infectious disease and nephrology. I am also the only doctor currently employed at this hospital who is forced to be here against his will.Dr. House: [to Lisa] That is true, isn't it?Dr. House: [to crowd] But not to worry, because for most of you, this job could be done by a monkey with a bottle of Motrin. Speaking of which, if you're particularly annoying, you may see me reach for this: this is Vicodin. It's mine! You can't have any! And no, I do not have a pain management problem, I have a pain problem... but who knows? Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm too stoned to tell. So, who wants me?[nobody moves]Dr. House: And who would rather wait for one of the other two guys?[everybody raises their hand]Dr. House: Okay, well, I'll be in Exam Room One if you change your mind.Dr. Cuddy: Jody Matthews?[Jody raises her hand]Dr. Cuddy: Please accompany Doctor House to Exam Room One.</blockquote>
