HOUSE ATTEMPTS TO SOLVE A MEDICAL MYSTERY BEHIND BARS ON THE SEASON PREMIERE OF "HOUSE" MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, ON FOX

Odette Annable ("Breaking In") Joins Cast as Series Regular

Jaleel White ("Family Matters") and Michael Paré ("Eddie and the Cruisers") Guest Star

A year has passed since House (Hugh Laurie) crashed his car into Cuddy's (Lisa Edelstein) home, and we find House spending time behind bars at the East New Jersey Correctional Facility under the close watch of the prison warden (guest star Paré). When an antagonistic prison gang leader makes a serious threat, House solicits the help of a fellow inmate (guest star White), but when another inmate's unusual medical symptoms spark his curiosity, House must come up with creative ways to treat the patient while navigating prison rules. House meets Dr. Jessica Adams (Odette Annable), a young, intelligent and bright-eyed clinic doctor, but when they are faced with a controversial opportunity to diagnose the patient's life-threatening illness, Adams is confronted with a choice to trust House and put her career on the line or play by the book in the all-new "Twenty Vicodin" season premiere episode of HOUSE airing Monday, Oct. 3 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
