CUDDY IS FACED WITH A NEW REALITY ON AN ALL-NEW "HOUSE" MONDAY, MARCH 7, ON FOX

Paula Marshall ("Gary Unmarried") Guest-Stars

Episode Features Dream Sequences in Styles of Iconic Film and TV Genres

Tension reaches new heights when Cuddy faces sobering news that propels her to reevaluate her priorities. While House is distracted by his concern for Cuddy's well-being, the team treats a teenage patient whose worsening symptoms and suspicious body scars indicate more than just physical illness. Sensing the teen's troubled emotional and mental state, Taub turns to the patient's personal life for clues and uncovers disturbing home videos that could put the lives of his peers in danger. Meanwhile, Cuddy remains hopeful that House will be fully present when she needs him most, and a series of dreams, including a musical scene choreographed by Mia Michaels, provide glimpses into her life and her relationship with House in the all-new "Bombshells" episode of HOUSE airing Monday, March 7 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (HOU-715) (TV-14 D, L, V)
