Right.

[AND BECAUSE OF THIS:]

You mean pizza right? This isn’t code for swinging?

[rehandle]

[ — uhm?! ]

What? No. What?

[verbol]

It’s House.

[you NEVER KNOW. ]

What did you do, by the way, to make John Gaius think he isn’t - uh - pretty enough for you?

[rehandle]

What? [ ??? Not Jim too ??? ] What is happening.

[verbol]

[Sorry, Stephen, he’s uh, laughing.]

I quote: “it's just that Stephen isn't interested in my particular toppings.” Did you insult this mans toppings? Shame, Stephen.

[rehandle]

Can I spend three hours with with my brand new heart before you, John and House put me into cardiac arrest? Is that too big an ask?

[ But there's laughter in it, even as he's busy having a small waking nightmare. ]

He said that to you?

[verbol]

[Still laughing. ]

Stephen Strange, what did you do?

[rehandle]

I didn't do anything.

[ Maybe that is, in fact, the problem. ]

[verbol]

[Incredible scenes in the old man club today]

You and his, uh, toppings are okay, then?

[rehandle]

The pizza metaphor is making this worse.

[verbol]

I don’t know, I’m having a great time with it.

[rehandle]

I'm happy for you.

[verbol]

[About three seconds away from cackling before he cuts it out, shifts to neutral - ]

So just pizza and, presumably, John cheating at bridge while House definitely doesn’t try to convince us to make it strip bridge. Got it.

[rehandle]

I can't even bail. This is excruciating.

[ Not that he actually wants to. But my god. ]

[verbol]

I'll protect your virtue, don't worry.

[SORRY]

[rehandle]

[ A cough of surprised laughter. ]

My hero.
