Thirteen is a character on the hit television show “House,” she is one of many doctors temporarily hired by House with the intention of gradually screening them out. Her real name is Dr. Remy Hadley, she is called Thirteen because all the candidates were originally given numbers. She is around 25 or 26 years old, born on March 10, 1984 in New York City. She has long wavy brown hair and blue eyes. Often seen as mysterious too many people. One of the things which originally made Thirteen interesting to House was the sheer limited amount of information she gives out about herself, so he began trying to find out as much as he possibly could. In one episode she got distracted and failed to give a patient his pills, resulting in both his death and the death of his service dog, who ate the pills off the floor. House fired the rest of her team, but kept her, arguing that she would never make such a mistake again. In another episode he figured out that she is the only one on the team who drinks decaffeinated coffee, and he replaced all her coffee with regular. Thirteen then had an overreaction to her resulting clumsiness, and House found out from her, that her mother died of Huntington's chorea, a hereditary disease with the early symptom of physical clumsiness. Thirteen did not deal well with the knowledge that she might have Huntington's at all. She refused to get tested by anyone, and when House tested her without her knowledge in the episode called "You Don't Want to Know," she refused to look at the results. She believed that by not knowing, she was giving herself the courage to do things she would never have been able to do otherwise. However in the episode titled "Wilson's Heart," the death of Amber, another young female physician, led her to self-test. The result was positive: she has Huntington's just like her mother had, turns out it was genetic after all. In "Lucky Thirteen," Thirteen is on a destructive downward spiral. Confirming that she’s bisexual, she's found partying with a girl whose name she doesn't know. The girl begins to have seizures, and so Thirteen has the girl brought to Princeton-Plainsboro. During this episode, Dr.Cuddy demands that Thirteen take a drug test after finding her giving herself fluids via an IV to deal with her hangover. House saves her from having to take the drug test, but fires her instead. By the end of the show, Thirteen is rehired by House who was only toying with her emotions. The episode closes with Thirteen continuing with her destructive habits and partying with another woman. In the latest episode with Thirteen titled “Help Me”, she requests to leave for personal reasons. There’s a scene in this episode where she is seen holding a drink and her hand is violently shaking. Indicating that Thirteens disease of Huntington’s is slowly effecting her motor skills as it progresses.
