Forgive me if I've already asked this once but I don't remember if I was answered.
Members of House's team are referred to the affectionate term "duckling" whether it's an old team member or new and it's not hard to understand why they're referred to this way after you've seen the on the move differentials House loves to conduct and they're all following him as little ducklings would their mother.
Now the point of this post is to ask this: In what episode(s) if any has House himself refer to his team (or any member of it) as a duckling? I've wracked my brain trying to remember him calling them this and can't. Or is the term "duckling" just an affectionate term we fans have coined for House's fellows?
