Dr. Robert Chase.  Chase is a House Jr. so to speak.  He doesn’t have quite as many “ass” type qualities though.  Although I think he has potential.  He has the ability to deduce, and not only medically.  We see him lay some of these skills down late in Season 1 and Season 2.  Chase has issues with his father, very similar to House’s and Foreman’s.  It seems like everyone has problems with their dad’s these days!  But when Chase’s father visited, it was the last time Chase would ever see him, and he didn’t even know.  His dad even told House about the problem, and asked House not to tell Chase, which surprisingly he never did.

As time passes, Chase becomes more of a supporter or House.  And, because of this, he sometimes unnaturally follows Houses orders, no matter how outrageous they may be.  I think sometimes that frustrated House, due to his tendency to desire arguements.  He was a bit sneaky, too.  He turned information regarding House over to Vogler, in order to save his own job.  Sneaky, but it’s not out of the realm of something House himself would do.  This was of course in the first season, before a relationship had really been formed between the two.  We see that when Tritter comes to Chase for information, Chase refuses to work with him.  This didn’t stop other team members from accusing him of working with Tritter though.

Overall, Chase is a good guy.  We see him become attached to Cameron when they slept together, simply because he couldn’t handle a purely “physical” relationship.  Chase is a Christian in the show, and was in Seminary before entering medschool.  This never prevents him from assisting House in morally questionable situations however.  This causes many arguements between Chase and Foreman, due to Foreman’s resentment of House.  Ultimately, House fires Chase because of an assertive comment made toward House.
