Yeah, he's around. And maybe I should. He's pretty great at giving hugs, even with all that armor.

And ask Flynn about those classes, huh? I will too, next time I talk to him.
Sure! Talk to you later, Gabriel. [It might have been an awkward note to end the conversation on, but House makes an effort at a smile, himself, before hanging up.]
