A DRILL SERGEANT SHOWS TOUGH LOVE FOR HIS TRAINEE ON AN ALL-NEW “HOUSE” MONDAY, JANUARY 24, ON FOX

Amber Tamblyn Guest-Stars

A teenage military trainee at a juvenile offender training camp suffers peculiar symptoms after enduring an intense training course, and mysteriously, his drill sergeant is soon admitted for similar symptoms. Unable to track down the cause of the shared illness, the team searches for clues in the trainee’s family medical history, and Masters (guest star Tamblyn) and House reveal a unique bond between the sergeant and trainee. Meanwhile, when an indecent photo of Chase is posted on a social-networking site following three different romantic encounters, Chase is determined to find out which girl is trying to publicly disgrace him. Also, sensing Cuddy’s stress over her daughter Rachel’s enrollment at a prestigious preschool, House secretly prepares Rachel for observations and reveals a soft spot for the toddler in the all-new “Carrot or Stick” episode of HOUSE airing Monday, Jan. 24 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

The Bracket (3x14 How I Met Your Mother) did it first and better.

Yeah, I can't believe that House will go with "a bracket" to allow Chase to work it out though. Or that Chase ever ran the "evil twin" or "prince of norway" plays. :-)

Because Chase just doesn't have awesome hair. Because Cameron took it in the divorce.
