Synopsis

From the sterile confines of the Princeton-Plainsboro clinic waiting room, a man brandishing a firearm seized House, Thirteen, and several patients, taking them captive within Dr. Cuddy's office. He declared himself afflicted by a debilitating, long-unidentified illness and issued a demand for immediate medical intervention from the hospital's foremost physician, punctuating his plea with chilling threats of violence against the hostages should his demands go unmet.
