Hugh Laurie loves me for one moment



I am trapped inside someone else's nightmare with Hugh Laurie, star of Fox television series House, M.D.

We are in a white room with four walls and multiple tiny doors and we would like to leave. But behind every tiny door is a dead body--someone that the nightmare's owner loved. The same dead body appears behind every tiny door.

When we perceive that the floor will soon turn to water and we'll drown, Hugh looks at me with his Mediterranean blue eyes and says, "I have been preparing for this, and if I need to, I'll sacrifice myself for you." And I say things like, "No, don't say that!" but his emotions escalate to fever pitch and he is on the verge of asking for my hand in marriage when a hot air balloon made entirely of marijuana comes and rescues us and we float into the night.

By the time we land safely on the ground Hugh is back to his old bristly self. We will not get married.
