House Spoilers: Must Read Before Watching "5 to 9"
[Photo: FOX]
I thought you should all take a look at this article by Korbi Ghosh. Her words are perfect for what's in store for us tomorrow Monday night. I too can't wait to see it and wish you'll see it too. Share your thoughts below.
Lisa Cuddy is a tough broad.
Tougher than you've probably realized in the five or six years you've known her.
She makes the difficult decisions and she doesn't back down and she gets called a bitch a lot. It's kind of bothersome.
But you are going to like her special episode.
Yes, if you are a fan of "House", KTV is going to go out on a limb and guess that you'll be pleased with Monday's (Feb. 8) hour. It's easily one of the finest hours of the season so far in our opinion.
We've watched Cuddy for a long time now, but the truth is, she's never been truly fleshed out. Sure, we got to see her yearn for a kid, but after Monday, you'll know what it means to be in her shoes: In charge of Princeton Plainsboro and responsible for a needy child ... not to mention a needy boytoy and a bad-boy doctor too.
Yes, both the boy toy and the bad-boy doctor will feature prominently in Cuddy's episode. House-Cuddy (aka "Huddy") proponents may be pleased to hear that the cranky doc is in her face a lot this coming week. And he even teams up with the boy toy to play a trick on her.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, the boy toy. You're going to strangle me for saying so, but Lucas (Michael Weston) comes off as sexy and cute and a little annoying all at the same time in this ep. In fact, the hour opens with a super hot "Luddy" moment, driven by Lucas. And though it deflates quickly, it's okay, because you'll get a laugh out of it too.
Still, House (Hugh Laurie) remains the gold standard, and the connection between him and Cuddy is apparent.
Not to say that Cuddy's special episode is all about her love life. On the contrary, there is a very solid "story of the week" which holds up so well that one may think that FOX could make a case for a Cuddy spinoff once Laurie says peace out.
Can't wait for you to see it.

House Spoilers: The Ultimate Cuddy-centric Spoilers
[Photo: FOX]
To top off our Cuddy-centric spoilers, here is an interview of Lisa Edelstein from House is Right . Before watching the episode on Feb. 8, Monday, you should check out this interview so you'll get to have an overview of how much this episode means to Lisa and to all House fans. This is once in a span of 6 years or series of episode for a medical drama series. And to add, a successful hit medical drama series. So here it is ... and you can see the whole article too from the link above.
Q: I’m just wondering if you think Cuddy is the “risotto” of all roles, in that it leaves you totally satisfied.
L. Edelstein: Definitely for now. I’m a bit fickle. So, I think a good seven years of satisfaction will lead me to the next phase.
Q: What do you hope that people glean from this episode, aside from Cuddy has a lot on her plate on any given day? What do you hope their take away is as far as your character that they might not have picked up on over the past years?
L. Edelstein: Well, there’s a lot of things I like about the episode in addition to the fact that you get a real glimpse into what it means to run a hospital. Because sometimes you see complaints that people don’t think that Cuddy’s very good at her job. I don’t really think they know what her job is. Now you get a really clearer view of that.
I like the difference between her relationship with Lucas and her relationship with House. I think on one hand you see this kind of uncomplicated ease with this guy who’s just showing up. He shows up. He actually does his best and shows up and wants to be there versus the guy that she had this long, deep, fascinating, back-and-forth with that she can’t seem to steer clear of and what he actually means in her world, how he affects her world. So, I think there’s a lot of levels to it.
Q: The episode hints at the occasional disconnect with Lucas. Do you think if she does end up bailing on that romance it’ll be to go to House or just to not be with Lucas?
L. Edelstein: I don’t know, because they don’t tell me. So, I would hate to guess. But, I that think sometimes you just want to be in the relationship that looks good on paper and that is the relationship you think you’re supposed to be in. But, I’m not sure that that really works.
So, when and if that doesn’t work, I guess what you would do is really give it a shot with the thing that excites you most. But that’s going to sound like a spoiler, and it actually isn’t because I haven’t the faintest idea what’s happening.
Q: One of my favorite moments in the “Wilson” episode earlier this year was the scene where Wilson was doing something completely, unrelated to anything that involved House. In the background, you saw the team with the patient on the gurney in the hallway, and crazy things. It really did impress on me that, “Wow! Wilson really does have a life and career that doesn’t involve House.” How interesting to see that, and again, with you, you get to have those moments, too. Is that really cool and fun and interesting for you?
L. Edelstein: I think so. I hope the audience thinks so, because again, it is really nice to see, to fill in the blanks, and to make the picture more complete. So that you know when House is causing problems for Cuddy, what the rest of the things on Cuddy’s plate are. When they interrupt something in the hallway to have a debate about a case that has nothing to do with what she’s doing and the rest of her day, how she has to focus and deal with it and resolve it and move on. I mean, I just think it is fun to see that. It is fun to fill in the blanks.
Q: A few years ago, you and I did an interview and I asked you ways you were unlike Cuddy and one of the things you singled out was the clothes, that Cuddy wears clothes that you can’t run in, and that that would cramp your style. After a few more years of playing her, do you think that maybe there’s a little bit of a free spirit kind of hidden away from everybody, just because she’s the boss?
L. Edelstein: Well, I don’t think she has time to be the free spirit that she might be. I think her days are completely filled. She has to be up at 4:30 in the morning and she works until 9:00 at night. She is a real go-getter with an enormous amount of energy, doing an enormous amount everyday for a lot of people. That kind of responsibility fills up every inch of your world.
Q: So, you don’t have time to do cartwheels down the hallway?
L. Edelstein: She certainly doesn’t. I do.
Q: A lot of fans have expressed their, I guess, anger or just dislike about the Cuddy-Lucas relationship? What do you think it is that Cuddy sees in Lucas that no one else can?
L. Edelstein: I think he shows up. I think he helps her with her life. He’s uncomplicated, very loyal, and has sex with her. I think that those things mean a lot to somebody who’s got a world like hers, which can be very overwhelming. The uestion remains, “Is that enough?”
But I think for right now, it’s something she really needed to explore having because she’s been alone for a while, a long time and kind of chasing after a House that was completely unavailable. So, this season, suddenly he turns around and announces he’s available, but it’s years that this has been going on. It’s not so easy.
Q: So, you’ve played this character for a while now. How do you think Cuddy’s changed over the years?
L. Edelstein: Well, I don’t think characters change. I think they become more revealed. I don’t think you really can change a character on a show. David Shore was talking about this, as well, a while back, because if you change the character, then the dynamic changes.
I think what happen is in the first season of any episode, as the audience, you’re presented with a vague picture of these people. You, as an audience member, project onto them your idea of who they are and how they fit. As the years go by and the writers get to write more deeply about each individual, they just expose themselves little by little. I don’t mean that in a nude way. Although, actually I do because that’s pretty much what happened with my character. Every season, I become more and more disrobed.
Q: What was it like having Jennifer Morrison back on the set?
L. Edelstein: Lovely. Jennifer is a great girl, wonderful to be around and smart and funny and it was great.
Q: Any kind of fun, behind-the-scenes things you can share?
L. Edelstein: Not really. We don’t have that kind of set. We work really hard and then have witty banter.
Q: I was wondering if you thought that, this is just your opinion, I know you don’t know about what’s coming up ahead. But, do you think that Cuddy would have settled, well, if settle’s the right word, for the guy she’s with right now if she hadn’t had the child? Do you think he was sort of like …?
L. Edelstein: I think that having a child definitely changed her attitude about relationships, absolutely. I think him being in her life is really directly related to that. She really needs somebody she can rely on.
I don’t think anyone can really fully prepare for having a child. I don’t think there’s any way of preparing for what that means to your world. This is a woman who already had a really full world. She needs reliable people in her life.
Q: How do you think season six is shaping up without Jennifer Morrison as Cameron?
L. Edelstein: Well, she’s been in season six.
Q: But she’s kind of been absent for quite a few episodes.
L. Edelstein: It’s always strange to be missing a character that has been around for a long time. So, it’s really hard to answer that question. However, I love our writers and I love what they’re doing. Of course, we miss her and she was recently back. That was tons of fun. I don’t really know what else to say.
Q: Did the atmosphere on set change when she left?
L. Edelstein: Not really. We don’t all work together all the time. So, for example, most of my scenes are with Hugh or Robert. I don’t have a lot of scenes with the team. I think maybe for them they could feel the difference more. Jennifer and I rarely had scenes by ourselves together, even in the five years we were both around at the same time. So if we shoot ten days and I’m there three out of those ten days, I see only whoever I’m in the scene with.
Q: I wanted to know what was it like in an episode focused on Cuddy.
L. Edelstein: It was really exciting. It was exciting because I’ve been working with these people for a very long time and to be given that kind of opportunity was really special. They sent me the script weeks earlier than usual, where I could have notes about dialog, notes about story line; make script suggestions, which is not normal for our process at House. Even during filming, I just felt like I had a lot more power in terms of interacting with the writer and director. I really loved it. Plus, I was there 16 hours a day, which is a lot of hard work. But, it’s really fun to set the pace and the tone of the stage, to be given that opportunity, especially with people that I’ve known for quite some time.
Q: House and Cuddy seem to begin to repair their relationship just a little bit, in “5 to 9”. Really for the first time, I think, since almost from the beginning of the season. Is that going to continue to evolve?
L. Edelstein: Again, they really don’t tell me what the goal is. But I did really like that and I liked the way it looked next to her relationship with Lucas because there is something very special between House and Cuddy that also is historical and deeply complicated, but has a nice weight to it, which is a very confusing thing to have in your life when you’re trying to do what you think is the right thing on paper.
Q: Yeah, there’s several moments in the episode where they seem to fall back into that very intimate trust between them.
L. Edelstein: Yeah. I don’t think they can help it.
Q: It’s like they are great moments and I think the House-Cuddy fans are going to applaud greatly when they see it.
L. Edelstein: Oh, good!
Q: Miss Edelstein, do you have any acting plans beyond House? Or, would you like to write or direct an episode like Hugh Laurie has done?
L. Edelstein: No, I don’t think I’m going to write or direct an episode. Writing an episode would be an enormous challenge because they work about six months on these cases in trying to find diseases that can be confused for other things that yet you can tell a story with that’s interesting. I mean, it’s a very complicated process. Watching Hugh do the directing, it actually was really a little more inspiring, because I hadn’t really thought about it before. Ultimately, I’m just thinking of things will interest me when House is finally done, which I don’t even know when that is, and in the meantime, just trying to see as much of the world as I possibly can.
Q: Besides seeing the script so early, what surprised you most about this episode when you first read it?
L. Edelstein: What surprised me most? That I was in every scene. It never happened to me before on the show. I kind of had an idea of what was happening, so it didn’t take me totally by surprise. They gave me a heads-up. I just didn’t know how they were going to do it.
Q: You said that you took the opportunity to suggest some script changes. What change are you most proud of?
L. Edelstein: I don’t know. If I tell you that, then you’ll know what the scene looked like before and it’ll spoil scenes. It was some relationship stuff on both sides, really, Lucas stuff and House stuff. Some were changes and some were just tone, like talking about tone and being able to participate in that process and learn what it is that David had in mind and what he was trying to say. What Tommy had in mind, what he was trying to say. Just kind of have more involvement in their process in allowing my sense of things to have some power, too.
Q: I was wondering as a woman, and during the filming process during this episode, did you ever think, “Wow! I can relate to Dr. Cuddy in this episode.” Like her life is so busy and it’s such a balancing act?
L. Edelstein: Well, absolutely; she’s trying to do everything. I’m just glad there is an episode that shows how much it is she actually has to do, how much is on her plate. Representing single moms, and single working moms and what they do is always nice because they’re unsung heroines.
Q: So, I saw the episode, and I noticed that Cuddy practices yoga, which I believe you do as well. I was just wondering, were there any other attributes about yourself that you were able to transfer to your character in this episode?
L. Edelstein: Attributes about myself, of course, I play Cuddy, so she is a part of me; but she’s much more serious and has much more on her plate and is responsible for many more people than I actually am. I think that seeing her at home, seeing her with Lucas, seeing her be a little bit sexual, those are fun sides of Cuddy that you don’t normally get to see. But, yeah, I think she’s too busy to be much more than that.
Q: Given that House’s pessimistic attitude toward life is such a key element of the show, do you think that the show would still be able to have the same effect if your character and House were in a happy relationship?
L. Edelstein: Well, I don’t think just because people are in a relationship that they’re happy. I don’t think relationships necessarily make people happy. You just are happy or you’re not happy. So, I think if they were ever to get together, there would be no loss in the misery level.
L. Edelstein: Definitely for now. I’m a bit fickle. So, I think a good seven years of satisfaction will lead me to the next phase.
Q: What do you hope that people glean from this episode, aside from Cuddy has a lot on her plate on any given day? What do you hope their take away is as far as your character that they might not have picked up on over the past years?

House Spoilers: House Season 6 Episode 13 "5 to 9" First 4-Minutes
Watch this video of the first 4 minutes of Monday night's episode on House, "5 to 9". A Cuddy-centric and lots-of-Luddy episode. For Huddy fans, you can skip this video. Well, It was really hard for me to watch it. The feeling of watching Lucas with Cuddy getting intimate, was really not nice. Actually, it seems off, very unthinkable! Just being honest here. And then I realized and confirmed to myself that I'm really a Huddy person.

What can I say? This spoiler looks really steamy! The huge news that Michael Ausiello is referring to is Cynthia Watros playing Wilson's first ex-wife in the coming episodes.
Question: You rock for bringing us that fantastic clip from Monday’s Cuddy-centric episode of House. You would rock even more if you told us if there’s any good Huddy action in the episode. —Tammy
Ausiello: Cuddy interrupts an intimate moment between a naked House and another woman. And this isn’t Huddy-related, but Generation Xers should be forewarned that there’s something — actually, someone — in the episode that will make you feel really old. Speaking of House, did you see the huge news?

How many “Luddy” scenes are there in next week’s Cuddy-centric ‘House‘? How long do they total, in minutes? – House_Alias via Twitter
It’s funny you should speak of minutes, because one thing to come out of the episode is the sad fact that ol’ Lucas is a “two-minute man” – and at the worst time, too. A few other tidbits from the very engaging, Lisa Edelstein-tastic hour: Cuddy has Isabel Allendes’ ‘Inés of My Soul’ on her nightstand; she starts her day off with yoga (and is very bendy); and she’s as obsessive with her Blackberry as I am with mine. “Huddy” fans, meanwhile, may enjoy Cuddy’s reaction to House getting a shirtless rubdown by a buxom blonde. One final note: The episode ends with a montage set to Mary Chapin Carpenter’s ‘Passionate Kisses,” which features the lyric, “I want a full house.” Clue? Discuss.

Now that the Cuddy-centric episode is set to air next week, Mickey O'Connor of TV Guide has some scoop about our Cuddy's -ships:
Should House fans hold out any hope for more Huddy? — Maureen
MICKEY: Right now, the best I can promise you is that Dr. Crankypants will experience something of a thaw when it comes to Cuddy in next week's episode. There will still be scads of ice floes between them, but they'll look smaller, like in An Inconvenient Truth, except without all the dead polar bears and with Lucas.

House Spoilers: Cuddy-centric Spoilers #1
Kristin Dos Santos answers fan questions on the upcoming Cuddy-centric episode "5 to 9". Here is an excerpt from E!Online.
Montserrat in Glendale, Calif.: Please tell me this Cuddy-Lucas liaison is almost over on House. I can't stand it anymore!
OK, the bad news is that next Monday's House ep, "5 to 9," is Cuddy-centric and therefore riddled with Cuddy-Lucas PDA. Blech. On the other hand, the good news is that "5 to 9" is Cuddy-centric and therefore riddled with scenes that reveal House and Cuddy's genuine emotional and psychological intimacy, and that remind us fans why she loves that dude's deranged narcissistic ass in the first place. If you Huddy fans can just squint through the Cuddy-Lucas scenes, you'll find that when you come out the other side, the Huddy material is very rewarding.
Pete in Phoenix: Give me an update on House, stat!
Look for actor-comedian Orlando Jones to pop up in tonight's House, bringing along a few surprises for his brother, Foreman (Omar Epps). We checked into reports that Orlando will possibly be back on a full-time basis next year, but a House rep tells us that the writers don't yet know anything past this season. So for now, Foreman's big bro is only expected to show up once.

House Spoilers: Lucas Goes to "Extinction"?
[Photo: FOX]
No, Michael Weston is not going to extinction. But, he is a little busy with the play, "Extinction", these days. Korbi Gosh analyzes the latest activities of Michael Weston and the interview last week with EP David Shore which says that Lucas will not last for a long time.
Earlier this week, the readers of KTV got a chance to express their opinions regarding the Lucas-Cuddy relationship on "House" and, well, it wasn't pretty.
Seems many are displeased with the producers' fondness for the character of Lucas (Michael Weston) and the fact that both Katie Jacobs and David Shore said he'd be sticking around for awhile.
But it looks as though "awhile" won't last all that long.
Michael Weston has signed on to play a lead role in the Off-Broadway play "Extinction" alongside "Psych"'s James Roday. The play is scheduled to debut February 13.
By our estimation, "House" is currently working on episode 18 or 19, which means the cast and crew still have at least a few more hours and a few more weeks of production ahead of them. If you do the math, it seems improbable that Weston will be around for the "House" finale.
This isn't a huge surprise considering the fact that Jacobs and Shore did say that the Lucas-Cuddy relationship wouldn't last forever, but many of you were still wondering what the exact time line would be.
The news of Weston's latest endeavor could be a clue.

House Spoilers: House Fans on Lucas and Cuddy
[Photo: FOX]
Here are some of the reactions of House fans with regards to the Luddy relationship as heard by Korbi Gosh of Zap2It. If you haven't seen the interview with David Shore on the same topic, please do so before you proceed.
The overwhelming viewer response via comments and email was decidedly anti-Lucas and Cuddy (aka Luddy), however we did hear from a few Lucas fans as well, so we thought we'd highlight some of your thoughts...
David Shore, you are wonderful and your show is amazing. But Lucas is very annoying. -Anonymous
--
That's great you like Lucas Davis Shore because no one else does!!!! Glad he is not permanent though - best House news I have heard in a long while. The fact weare stuck with him for he forseeable future though is disturbing, really disturbing. Guess what DS we like House too how about stopping wasting HL screen time on boring sub plots and characters like Lucas! -Belle
--
Great...Lucas will be there for the foreseeable future. Not permanent does not tell us when he'll leave. Hopefully, he'll be gone by the end of the season. Or else this is one viewer that will stop watching. I really don't understand why DS and KJ likes this Lucas. They seem to be the only ones. -Bored
--
Is Michael Weston DS's secret love child? Is that why he likes Lucas and insists on keeping him when no one likes this character? -Ugh
--
Amber should come back and run Lucas over with a bus. Then, maybe we can get rid of this disgusting character. -Anonymous
--
Cool that the relationship between Cuddy and Lucas won't last. It's a pairing that does not work for me. House and Cuddy on the other hand makes me a little fan girl. -Karen
--
I loved Lucas but not with Cuddy. -Anonymous
--
I love how people like Belle speak try to speak for everyone. I like Lucas, he's fun, and most importantly, he keeps Cuddy away from House and we don't have to endure all this Huddy drama. -Katie
--
The Huddy fangirls constants complaints about Huddy/Luddy (for nothing!!! Why do you even complain?!) is intolerable, really. Let Cuddy be happy with Lucas, I like him. -Sandra
--
I'm sick and tired of huddies and hamerons. This show is about House not about ships so if you don't like it don't watch it. I'm not a shipper, I like Lucas and I'm enjoying the season so far. Good job! -Val
--
Though I like the chemistry between House and Cuddy and have always wanted them together, I'm enjoying Lucas right now. Good to see Cuddy with someone new, trying different things. House isn't ready for her yet. Why should she have to wait around and do nothing until he's ready? -Cat21
This last comment is where I'm at as well. It seems as though most people feel that House and Cuddy belong together -- including David Shore and executive producer Katie Jacobs -- but should Cuddy have to sit around and wait while House takes his time realizing it too? Let the lady have a little uncomplicated fun for now. Methinks the cranky doc will eventually come for her and maybe they'll even live happily ever after.

House Spoilers: Lisa Edelstein on Huddy and Luddy
Here is another interview of Lisa Edelstein done by Kristin Dos Santos of E!Online. This was during the FOX winter party. Katie Jacobs was also there to speak to us about what's good about "House" as a show. I'm so looking forward to the episode that focuses on Lisa's character Cuddy.

House Spoilers: Jennifer Morrison Might be Back?
[Photo: FOX]
Scoop from Fancast.com at the TCA Party last Jan. 11. I'll post another spoiler video that confirms Jennifer Morrison's possibility of a come back appearance. Watch out for it. Here is the spoiler from Fancast.
If you attend the Fox TCA party, don’t forget to ask about Jennifer Morrison’s status on ‘House,’ please. – axeldry via Twitter
Fancast: “If” I attend the Fox party? Like I’d ever skip that swell bash. When I chatted up Lisa Edelstein, I asked if we might see Jennifer again before this season is up. She confidently said, “I think so, yeah,” agreeing with me that Chase’s wife wouldn’t simply run away and stay away forever.
I’d like to know when Lucas (Michael Weston) is leaving ‘House.’ I want Cuddy with House, so I hope he will not stay until the end of the season! – Isa
Fancast: Think of it this way: “Luddy” may be GOOD for “Huddy” when all is said and done. “I see it as a valid relationship that Cuddy needs to have to sort out whether or not she can have that sort of relationship, with a guy who’s nice, helps take care of her kid, shows up and isn’t challenging or complicated,” Lisa Edelstein says. So, this could be a case of the nice guy finishing last? “Maybe so,” Lisa allowed. “But I haven’t seen what happens.”

House Spoilers: Michael Weston on Lucas, Cuddy, and the Crazy Love Triangle
[Photo: FOX]
Oh no! To Huddy fans, watch out because the spoiler I have is about the "Luddy" (Lucas and Cuddy) connection. You can skip this spoiler if you don't want to be furious. But if you're neutral, go on and read this.
Michael Weston was caught by TVGuide.com on an interview and he revealed what his character, Lucas, and Lisa Edelstein's character Cuddy have that made the two seem right for each other. The attraction, the coming sexy scenes and the rejection of the Huddy fans. Here is the inerview with Michael Weston:
TVGuide.com: What prompted the writers to bring your character back?
Michael Weston: After the first few episodes I did last year, there were rumblings of a romance with Cuddy. I think they decided to bring back someone that offered something to Lisa [Edelstein]'s character but also face off with Hugh [Laurie]. Hugh and I have a really good chemistry, and I think it was really fun for them to have someone that could sort of be a foil to House. Lucas is one of the only people who can give it right back to him.
TVGuide.com: What can we expect with the House-Cuddy-Lucas love triangle?
Weston: I have a feeling that House and Lucas have a lot more adventures together. I think Cuddy has a thing for House, and Lucas sort of has a thing for House — in terms of his friendship. They get along like buddies, and they're both intrigued by the others' profession. And they both can use each other, which they do. It's almost like it's a love triangle with this ever-present third party. It's an intellectual ménage à trois. [Laughs]
TVGuide.com: How about Cuddy and Lucas? What attracts them to each other?
Weston: I think it's because they're complete opposites. For Lucas, she is an intriguing woman that offered a domesticity that he probably never envisioned for himself, especially now that Cuddy has a kid. I think for her, Lucas is young, blunt and honest, but not deceptive. Lucas will speak his mind before he's figured out what he's going to say, and he's a terrible liar. It's sort of the opposite of House, who is so calculated. I think Cuddy loves House, and yet feels that their relationship would be doomed from Day One. So maybe she found the antithesis of House in Lucas, who is honest and he really likes her.
TVGuide.com: A lot of fans aren't too keen that Lucas has put a road block in a possible "Huddy" romance.
Weston: I have a feeling we're the most hated out of the House couples. I actually was getting a coffee at my nearby coffee shop, and someone there says to me, "Huddy, man — you're messing up Huddy." And he was totally serious, like looking right into my eyes as though I had just broken up with his sister. I'm was like, "Sorry, I really wanted that to work out." [Laughs]
TVGuide.com: Rumor has you and Lisa have a steamy scene together coming up.
Weston: Yeah, the Cuddy-Lucas affair gets steamier. Those are always moments that are awkward [for actors]. You're still getting to know each other and there's like five dudes holding equipment, looking at you thinking, "What's up? Yeah, I see you there naked. That's cool."
TVGuide.com: If you didn't play Lucas and were just a fan, who would you say Cuddy should be with?
Weston: I can't imagine her not being with House at some point in the evolution of the series — assuming House could get it together and become a full human being. I can see Lucas and Cuddy being together for a long time as well if they grow into each other, because as it is right now, they're learning to get along and open up with one another. I think for Lisa's character, she finds it difficult not being the boss and in charge, and being at work all the time. She sort of busies herself to avoid emotional vulnerability. That's where Lucas is important to her character. He brings a vulnerability and openness that can't really exist in that hospital because House won't allow it.
