== Private Lives ==
Mary attends the speed dating night and is paired with House. She tells him that she was dragged along by her friend who 'keeps trying to fix my life'. She brought a crossword puzzle along with her which House notices. Mary says she likes puzzles and that her job as a Police Detective is unfulfilling as 'criminals are idiots' and it doesn't challenge her.
House is initially interested in her before realising that she is lying about liking puzzles and being a detective in order to manipulate him. She had filled in the crossword with random letters and House comments that she has some natural talent as a liar but not enough brains to follow it through.Mary: I hate these things.House: What, are you here at gunpoint? You need me to call 911?Mary: Friend dragged me. She keeps trying to fix my life. Which, admittedly, could use it, but... still annoying.House: You like puzzles.Mary: I hoped my job would let me play with puzzles all day long, but it didn't work out that way. Police detective. Turns out criminals are idiots. If they're not gonna bother to challenge you, what's the point?House: Is there a fire alarm we could pull? Maybe get out of here. Except... Maybe you're just too swoft.Mary: Beg your pardon.House: Swoft. It's one of your crossword answers. I believe it means lying manipulator who tells men anything they want to hear. You brought a prop as a conversation starter. Folded the paper to make it look read, filled in some answers, but you couldn't be bothered to work at it, so you just put in random letters. You have some natural talent as a liar, but not enough brains to see it through. I'm gonna assume you're not a cop. Are the five minutes up?
