I will always choose you. Not only did their relationship make House a worse doctor, but it also made House a worse show. By making Huddy the center of the action, the show no longer stood out among the pack. It was just average, and that was one adjective never used to describe Dr.
Did the relationship reveal anything about House or Cuddy? Did it lead to any significant changes in the characters Definitely not. House and Cuddy's terrible relationship. I'm Still Not Over Save FB Tweet More. Credit: Fox. TV Show. Episode Recaps Hugh Laurie, House, Hugh Laurie, House, Hugh Laurie, House. Their history together is not as clear, but here is what is known for sure.
At the same time, Cuddy was attending the school as an undergraduate. House quickly became, as Cuddy describes him, a legend. She pursued him and they slept together one night. The next morning House was notified that he had been expelled. However, the rest of their relationship at this time and over the next twenty years is clouded in mystery. Fast forward to about five years before the series starts. House is known as the one of the greatest diagnosticians in the world, but is practically unemployable due to his inability to deal with anyone—supervisors, subordinates, staff or patients.
Cuddy, on the other hand, has become the second youngest chief of medicine in the history of Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital. For some reason even Cuddy has kept hidden, possibly in a legal manoeuver to keep PPTH for being sued for malpractice over the way they ignored House's wishes and crippled him, she decides to hire House.
Her official explanation is that he came cheap. During this time, House has become responsible for half the hospital's legal budget, has continued not only to alienate supervisors, subordinates, staff and patients, but also important donors. He also regularly subjects Cuddy to sexual harassment, commenting constantly on the size of her butt and the display of her breasts.
Obviously, no matter how low his salary, it isn't worth the nine figure sum he has cost PPTH. However, when push literally comes to shove, Cuddy has always backed House. Cuddy refuses to discuss why she's never fired House.
Technically she can't, House has tenure and can only be fired by the board acting unanimously, but they despise House more than anyone. However, when pressed, Cuddy will point out that House has saved about one patient a week. She also realizes that House is a much better doctor than she is. At the end of the episode Top Secret , there were additional but non-explicit clues. House remembers where he had seen the patient before - making out with Cuddy at a hospital fundraiser.
Cuddy says the only reason why House had remembered him he never remembers anyone is because he was making out with Cuddy. She intimates House wanted her himself she made the same observation in Insensitive. House says that Cuddy hired him because, for one night, he gave her everything she asked for. She tells him not to fool himself - he couldn't get hired anywhere and she picked him up cheap. She tells him to get over her. However, in the previous episode, Insensitive, Cuddy's blind date left her because, although he liked her, he noticed how much more excited she was when she was around House.
The recent events surrounding Eric Foreman's employment have given some insights into Cuddy's motivations. We can guess that although House has been fired several times, he may have, like Foreman, have been fired for saving the life of a patient at the expense of his job.
We also know that Cuddy continued to defend House even though Foreman pointed out that if every doctor acted like House, the mortality rate among patients would skyrocket. Cuddy appears to have both the necessary tolerance for House's methods which do, after all, save lives and the willingness to stand up for House when everyone attacks him.
We can surmise that Cuddy hired House in much the same circumstances that she re-hired Foreman, and perhaps for the same reason - to teach them both a little humility and get an excellent doctor in exchange. It is also possible that Cuddy's motives for keeping House around are a mirror image of House's reasons for tormenting Cuddy.
House gets some unhealthy satisfaction out of evading or defying Cuddy's rules, and Cuddy seems to get the same satisfaction out of successfully imposing those rules on House. In Season 4, at least as early as the episode "Mirror Mirror", Cuddy is taking birth control pills, of which, strangely, House is aware.
He further suggests that he switches the pills as a prank. During a conversation with Foreman, he quips that if Foreman stays: "No one's going to be happy here
