Why does thirteen leave




















Whatever you're doing now isn't working. How long have you been a psychopath? Valerie : [looks at Thirteen] Are you kidding? Hadley : He's not. Gregory House : [about Valerie] Get her to radiotherapy. Hadley : We can't start radiation without immunoassays on her urine. Eric Foreman : Great, so you cast a spell and magically fix her kidney so she can give us some urine to test. Hadley : We have some left over from admission. Eric Foreman : Not enough for a completely accurate reading. Hadley : Then how about partially accurate?

Gregory House : Those of you who haven't slept together, you can go. Everyone else, stay behind. Chris Taub : Oh, sorry. Chris Taub : That was our secret, right? Eric Foreman : You do it. Hadley : I don't think he was talking to me. Eric Foreman : Well, I am. Hadley : I'm the only one who thinks you're wrong. Eric Foreman : Maybe that's why I'm asking you to do it.

Hadley : [to House] You're taking the case because she's hot? Gregory House : No, that would be an accident of genetics. It's because she's hot and her husband is ugly.

It's a fascinating window into the mysteries of human psychology. Also, she's really hot. Valerie : [to Cuddy about Thirteen] Fire her. Hadley : What for? You seemed to have lied your way out of any trouble.

Valerie : Until Bill checks up on my cover and I have to create a whole new one to cover that one up. I've done it before, but it's a pain and I would like Dr. Hadley to share that pain. Lisa Cuddy : She didn't reveal any confidences and she had a valid medical reason to ask about your landscaping class. Valerie : We can see what a jury says about that.

Lisa Cuddy : And admit to your husband the truth? You're not gonna sue us. When House said that this made her too young to be a doctor, she accused him of forgetting what year it was at the time. In reality, Olivia Wilde was 24 when she started on the show. As Remy entered puberty , she realized she was attracted to both sexes.

From her reaction to a patient who also admitted attraction to the same sex in the episode The Softer Side , it appears that she had to handle a great deal of confusion over this during her high school years. However, by adulthood, she was perfectly comfortable with her sexuality, although she preferred to keep her preferences to herself when dealing with colleagues.

In the episode Changes , House tells Thirteen that her then high school boyfriend is waiting outside his office. House said that Ricky dumped her, but Thirteen replied by saying Ricky dumped her after discovering she slept with his sister.

House tells her to let him down gently. This episode reveals a small detail on what Thirteen was like in high school. Remy obtained admission to Sarah Lawrence College, a small co-educational college in Yonkers, New York, just outside New York City, where she was a student in residence taking a pre-med program.

Sarah Lawrence is known to have the most expensive tuition of any university in the United States. This indicates either that Remy's family was well off enough to handle the tuition or that she was smart enough to earn a partial scholarship.

Both elements were likely true as she was smart and dedicated enough to get into medical school. Despite her academic schedule, she did find the time to further explore her sexual desires, including an interlude with her roommate, a cheerleader from Iowa as mentioned in Epic Fail. It has not been revealed where Remy went to medical school, although it is revealed in the episode Unfaithful that she at some point did an ER rotation in Miami.

By the time she reaches the application process, she has completed a residency program and has been designated a specialist in internal medicine. Despite the existence of a test for the genetic marker that ensures a patient will develop Huntington's, Remy rationalized that not knowing, either way, was a better option as it allowed her to plan for the long term by going to medical school and applying for desirable jobs in her field.

Her nickname comes from the number she was assigned - However, it doesn't seem to have fazed her. In The Right Stuff , she soon chimed in with the first reasonable suggestion, immediately getting the attention of Dr. House - she surmised the patient's synesthesia may have been caused by thrombosis and asked if the patient spent "A lot of time above 20, feet. Well, as you said, you wouldn't interrupt Buddy if it wasn't important. She also unwittingly exposed Henry Dobson as a fraud when she agreed to perform an echocardiogram assigned to him.

As a result of her performance, she was made part of the final She seemed to be well on the inside track in 97 Seconds as part of the "women's team. Thirteen came up with the same conclusion and gave the patient ivermectin to treat it. However, the patient didn't respond to it, leading House to believe it might be something else.

As a result, the patient died, as did his assistant animal, an English Shepherd. House thought that was too great a coincidence and searched the room, finding the empty pill cup with dog teeth marks on it. The patient had Strongyloides but didn't take medicine - the dog swallowed it instead, and due to the breed of the dog, it was fatal to it.

House: When I asked you if you had seen the patient take the pills, the correct answer was "No. He explained that it was unlikely that she would make a similar mistake again. Although by the next episode, Guardian Angels , the rest of the applicants' real names started to be known, Thirteen was still portrayed as secretive, so much that she refused to reveal her name to her fellow applicants, directing them to keep calling her "Thirteen" instead.

She survived that episode when House decided to fire Henry because their thought processes were too similar. She also survived Mirror Mirror when House deliberately refused to fire anyone so that Robert Chase would win all the bets in his "Which applicant gets fired next" pool so he could split the proceeds.

However, Thirteen was really in trouble by the episode Ugly. House was concerned that he was overestimating her abilities because she was good looking, the same issue he had with Samira Terzi , who turned out to be completely useless despite her previous experience in diagnostics.

House: Oh, my god! Is she really that good looking? James Wilson : Apparently. Thirteen comes to believe the patient has Lyme disease , the same diagnosis she comes up with before and immediately dismissed. However, Thirteen was right, and it saved her. She was the only applicant who believed that the patient was still ill and would not survive his facial reconstruction surgery. Not only that, she came up with evidence of Lyme disease, the target-shaped rash , by looking at old pictures of the patient's face that did not show discoloration around the hairline.

His hair hid the rash. By Games , Cuddy forced House to choose only two of the remaining four applicants. When House had to choose between the two members he wanted on his team, he chose Lawrence Kutner and Chris Taub due to Cuddy making him take Foreman back and eliminated Amber because she couldn't handle losing well and Thirteen but did not give a reason for her elimination. Cuddy then played right into his hands by saying that he can't have an all-male team, and he had to hire Thirteen because she's the nicer one as well.

This was part of House's plan. In the season 4 finale, Wilson's Heart , she tested herself for Huntington's Disease, and the result came back positive, meaning that she does have the disease and can expect to deteriorate and eventually die as a result. Thirteen is the only currently-known doctor on the show that is not heterosexual; her bisexuality has been explored since the episode Don't Ever Change.

Thirteen continued to be slow to reveal any information about herself within the show. However, by Don't Ever Change , Foreman suggests to Thirteen that the reason for her secrecy is that she is bisexual for example, she was once seen looking interestedly at pornography House was watching. House arrives at the same conclusion at the end of the episode. She has since made various jokes about dating girls while refusing to confirm or deny her sexuality, but her lack of anything to say at the moment seems to confirm Foreman's suspicions.

However, the rest of her co-workers adopted Foreman's suspicions and House clearly calls her out on it at every opportunity. Thirteen refused to confirm or deny the rumor, but is not above teasing her teammates about it. In Living The Dream , she said, perhaps jokingly, that she thought she had dated one of the actresses on the show. However, in the episode Lucky Thirteen , her sexual orientation became open to the entire team when she brought her most recent one-night-stand to the hospital after she suffered a seizure in bed.

However, this did not change House's teasing attitude, or the attitudes of her colleagues towards her. This was probably because they had suspected it all along. However, in the same episode, it is clear that Thirteen's behavior is deteriorating; staying up late at night and engaging in promiscuous sex with other women.

This was clearly because she decided to take the test for Huntington's, which turned out positive. When Cuddy catches Thirteen giving herself intravenous fluids after a particularly late night, House manages to convince Cuddy she can't give Thirteen a drug test but then fires her. However, once he sees her bond with Spencer personally, he reinstates her. He only fired her to see if she could form relationships that might stabilize her behavior.

As a parallel, Darryl Nolan decided to help House reinstate his medical license when he saw him form a bond with Lydia. However, the Huntington's diagnosis continued to make Thirteen take unnecessary risks.

In the episode Last Resort , she agrees to be a guinea pig for a hostage-taking patient and injects herself with every drug given to the patient to allay his fears that they are giving him a sedative.

It is only at the end, when she is near-complete kidney failure from the drug overdoses, that she realizes she wants to live and refuses to take the last drug, which most likely would have killed her. She straightens out after that incident. However, when House announces he's not coming back, she starts working for her boyfriend, Eric Foreman. They solve the case with a little help from House. However, Foreman realizes that he can't work with Thirteen while remaining his girlfriend because she won't stand up to him.

He fires her, and she eventually heads off for an indefinitely long trip to Thailand. However, she eventually returns, and although she's offered a job in a community clinic, she agrees to come back to work for House in Teamwork.

It is also touched upon in the episode Post Mortem , her team acknowledging her open sexuality. Taub mentioning to Chase about Thirteen having "Sapphic sex. Thirteen's compassion and care for others are among her best traits, but she has major problems dealing with death and terminal patients, perhaps out of fear of her mortality from her Huntington's disease.

She is also afraid of getting attached to people because she doesn't want to 'pull someone down' with her, so she was hesitant to begin her relationship with Foreman.

Thirteen is level headed, bright, enthusiastic, and generally not afraid to speak up when she thinks she is right. She has good relationships with patients, and it is shown she isn't as judgmental as her colleagues when it comes to drug-using patients. This could be attributed to her history of drug use. She has deliberately kept the details of her life guarded, preferring to go by her assigned number, 13, even after being hired. Foreman believes that this is because she is bisexual and wants to keep her private life hidden.

She arguably possesses greater street smarts than any of the other characters. In the episode Joy, she correctly identified a female drug dealer who met up with the patient, while Taub mistook the same woman for a prostitute.

Also, she distinguished unadulterated cocaine from that mixed with impurities and was also aware the dealer kept both pure cocaine for new customers and impure cocaine for addicts and asked for the impure sample for testing. In the episode The Down Low , when gangsters cornered thirteen and drug dealer Eddie, she easily fell into the role of a prostitute, thereby preventing Eddie's associate from realizing he had brought a doctor to where their drugs were stashed.

She also appears well able to defend herself, as when a patient grabbed her in Adverse Events, she not only escaped his grip but did so by breaking his nose. However, when she was younger, Thirteen appears to have been more vulnerable. In Private Lives , she admitted that at the age of 17, she fell in love for the first time with a man of 30 who was merely manipulating her. Her tough persona might also mask a more sensitive nature, as her encounter with the patient in Mirror Mirror implies she is often in a state of fear and anxiety.

For this season and the following two, Olivia Wilde, was credited as "also starring" starting with Games. Remy first appears as an applicant for House's new team in this episode. House created a type of 'Survivor' contest after the events in Human Error 3. She immediately distinguishes herself from the other applicants but is reluctant to make a connection with anyone at PPTH, even going so far as to refuse to tell them her real name. When House introduces the patient who is given the code name "Osama bin Laden", the applicants start questioning her.

Thirteen guesses the patient frequently flies and has an embolism. He then orders the applicants to do a whole bunch of tasks. The Right Stuff. House sends Cole to find the patient's car, but Thirteen volunteers to go with him. House comments sarcastically that they have a love connection, and leaves. House calls Thirteen and Cole who have found the patient's car, but it is behind a locked fence with two angry dogs.

When House asks them what's taking so long, Thirteen says that the car was towed and the yard's locked - they can't get the key. House responds that it's why he sent two of them - one breaks in, the other posts bail. When Thirteen says that getting arrested isn't what she's worried about, House says, "Not a problem. You know how to kill dogs, right? Thirteen and Cole find out who the patient is, but there is no useful information apart from the patient's name.

House is annoyed that they spent so long finding the car when they barely found anything useful, and asks Thirteen why she went with Cole. He thinks that Thirteen didn't want to have the patient mirror her, and decides to make her do the heart biopsy instead. House tells Foreman that he and Thirteen will do the biopsy and Foreman leaves. House makes Thirteen do the biopsy. The patient starts acting like House, making sexual comments about how hot Thirteen is, but House tries to pretend that she's his boss.

After the patient says, "This is so frustrating," Thirteen says that she doesn't think he's mirroring her, and House realizes that he has to leave, since the patient won't mirror Thirteen while he's there.

After House leaves and Thirteen completes the biopsy, the patient starts acting like he is very scared. Thirteen tries to reassure him by saying "It's OK. It's going to be OK," and the patient responds with, "No. No, it's not. He threatens to fire Kutner if he doesn't, but before Kutner can, Thirteen walks out. Mirror Mirror. Thirteen finally reveals how her mother died when House confronts her about her mother.

Thirteen admits she died from Huntington's disease. Thirteen figures she might have it, but House tells her that she's probably just taking in too much caffeine - he switched out her decaf. Thirteen has not been tested for the Huntington's gene, and House is astounded. While in the episode Thirteen prepares to biopsy House, House awakens and asks if the patient is still alive and Thirteen proceeds with a liver biopsy.

House realizes it was Thirteen who drugged him, but she notes he drugged her too. At the end, Thirteen confronts House about testing her for Huntington's. They don't look at the test results, with House dropping it in a trash bin. You Don't Want To Know. During this season, some Thirteen's personal information is revealed. Thirteen starts displaying signs of self-destructive behaviour and also reveals that she has asthma.

Thirteen is fired but rehired after making a real emotional connection with a patient. However, Thirteen continues on her downward spiral. Thirteen is also forced to become a guinea pig for whatever drugs a hostile patient receives in one of the episodes.

Thirteen suggests an insulinoma about the patient illness, House discloses that she probably has Huntington's. Thirteen denies to the team that she has Huntington's. House tells Thirteen not to feel so bad about being wrong about lymphoma - at least she had a good theory and stuck to her convictions.

He reminds her that dying changes everything, but almost dying doesn't. Dying Changes Everything. A lot of information is revealed about Thirteen, including how she is starting to go out of control after finding out she has Huntington's Disease. Thirteen hooks up with a woman for a one-night stand. Afterwards, the woman suffers a seizure. Cameron asks Thirteen what the patient's name is, but she replies that she doesn't know.

Cameron mentions that Thirteen said the patient took drugs about five hours before the seizure. House becomes intrigued at the thought of the two women together at 3 a. As the team goes through the case file, Thirteen laments that her private life is on display, but also thinks it is just dehydration from drugs. Foreman asks if Thirteen was also taking drugs, but she refuses to answer. Taub reports that the patient had eye hemorrhaging two years ago.

Kutner thinks that blood clots could explain everything, but Thirteen dismisses Spencer as a hypochondriac. House orders a bone marrow biopsy. As Thirteen prepares to draw bone marrow from Spencer, House watches their awkward interaction with amusement.

The patient reacts by stiffening in pain as Thirteen pushes the biopsy needle into her hip. Spencer has been told about House. He chats with Spencer about her sexual experience with Thirteen. Spencer rates Thirteen a seven out of ten.

Thirteen angrily tells Spencer that she found the letters she wrote trying to get House to take on her case. She accuses Spencer of sleeping with her to get to House, and Spencer admits she followed Thirteen to a bar to ask for help, but counters that Thirteen was only using her for sex. Thirteen notes the biopsy results were negative and wants to discharge her. Suddenly, Spencer clutches her chest and the cardiac monitor beeps. Thirteen asks a nurse to get the defibrillator paddles and has to admit the symptoms are real.

In the hospital, the team is shown looking at a spider they found in Thirteen's apartment. Its venom can cause seizures and heart problems. House realizes that an inhaler, also found in her apartment, shows that Thirteen had asthma as a child. Thirteen is the one ordered to check Spencer's body for spider bites. Thirteen admits she doesn't like relationships. Spencer wants to get to know Thirteen more and as they are about to kiss, Spencer comments that Thirteen didn't need to move her hand and Thirteen realizes that Spencer's hip is numb.

Foreman approaches Thirteen as she observes the surgery. He hands her the results of the Huntington's test he kept House from finding in her apartment. He realizes she will be symptomatic in a relatively short time and believes her behavior is getting destructive. When they talk about Thirteen's behavior, Foreman tells her that taking drugs, drinking and having sex with strangers isn't what life is all about.

She replies that she only wants to live her life to the fullest and that it sounds fun to her. Thirteen lies on an exam table. She looks exhausted and disheveled, giving herself a bag of fluids to combat her hangover. Thirteen hears someone coming, bolts up as best she can, yanks the IV out of her arm, but can't do much more before the door swings open.

It's Cuddy. House enters Cuddy's office to find a tired and rundown Thirteen. Cuddy wants her to take a drug test. Thirteen resists and House denies permission to Cuddy and orders Thirteen to follow him out of Cuddy's office.

Once they're outside in the main area, House lets Thirteen know that Spencer's surgery was not routine because she had stopped breathing. Thirteen missed a differential, and House fires her. He only wanted to save her the humiliation of a drug test and to stop her losing her license. Thirteen studies Spencer's chest x-rays. Foreman apologizes to her about her getting fired, saying they ruled out hypertension. Spencer is now on a treadmill running a methacholine challenge.

Foreman thinks Thirteen has been acting like an idiot. Thirteen realizes that lung cysts wouldn't show up on an x-ray. The treadmill test won't close her airway, but will instead make her lungs explode from a broken cyst.

Thinking of moving We might be able to offer you a range of help if you are thinking about moving from your home. What happens after I give my notice? Case Study Can I withdraw my notice?
