I think that's a bit much, maybe, unless it's sooo out of this world and unreal that it's funny.

I like that House is taking the higher ground actually. He could retalliate if he wanted to, but he is chosen not to because he's done sinking to that level. I don't think it's because of Lucas's little speech in the cafeteria. Which was stupid in itself actually. Lucas should be happy House isn't pressing charges or something.
