*Aurnia sits on a cold chair, uncomfortably waiting for the good doctor, House*

*Walks in pretty ticked off (as usual) about having to do clinic duty; the only indication that he was a doctor was the stethoscope around his neck. Why couldn't he get a good case instead?*
"Are you dripping?" *he asked bluntly, implying an STD.*

*Aurnia looks at him blankly. Appalled by his strange manner.* "Um, my name is Aurnia. I would just like some asprin. I don't have any on me, and I can't find any elsewhere."

*Now it was House's turn to look at her blankly.* "You waited in the clinic for two hours to get some asprin?" *he said, exasperated.*

Audrey walked into the clinic, clutching her mouth. "Excuse me doctor, but-oh." she noticed Aurnia. "Sorry, I didn't realize you had someone else in here." she said, stepping back. "I'll wait, shall I?"

*HOUWSE House turned, annoyed at the amount of human contact he was having that day.* "Are you dripping?" *He asked, again implying an STD.*

Audrey looked at House blankly and shook her head. "Sorry, I've been having a pain in my stomach, and I'm not sure what it is." she said

"Hmm..." *House said in an animated way, pretending to think.* "Well, my diagnosis depends on whether or not you have health insurance."

Audrey narrowed her eyes. "Shut up." she said. "Can you just, give me some advil or something?"

*House swivled around on the stool, reached over for the little slip of paper she had gotten from the clinic's front desk.*
"Uh..." *Reads.* "Audrey. I'm going to break from the parable of the wicked doctor and tell a little story about a patient. Let's call her… Faudrey, who has stomach pains and malnutrition. Faudrey has idiopathic gastric fibrosis. Her stomach lining is turning into rock. There's no known cause, no treatment. She's slowly withering away to death."
*House gave her back her slip of paper and continued to talk.* "A stomach transplant's about a half a million dollars, but this poor sucker's got no insurance. If she tried to sign up now, she'd be excluded, pre-existing condition. If only Faudrey hadn't been diagnosed with fibrosis before she got insurance."
