By the time she reaches the application process, she has completed a residency program and has been designated a specialist in internal medicine. It has not been revealed where Remy went to medical school, although it is revealed in the episode Unfaithful that she at some point did an ER rotation in Miami.

Both elements were likely true as she was smart and dedicated enough to get into medical school.ĭespite her academic schedule, she did find the time to further explore her sexual desires, including an interlude with her roommate, a cheerleader from Iowa (as mentioned in Epic Fail). This indicates either that Remy's family was well off enough to handle the tuition or that she was smart enough to earn a partial scholarship. Sarah Lawrence is known to have the most expensive tuition of any university in the United States. Remy obtained admission to Sarah Lawrence College, a small co-educational college in Yonkers, New York, just outside New York City, where she was a student in residence taking a pre-med program.

She also spent at least her junior year at a high school in West Virginia, where she entered a science fair (finishing fourth in the state). This episode reveals a small detail on what Thirteen was like in high school.ĭuring her teens, she appears to have attended Newton North High School in Newton, Massachusetts, where she describes herself as 'The Queen of Truth or Dare'. House said that Ricky dumped her, but Thirteen replied by saying Ricky dumped her after discovering she slept with his sister. In the episode Changes, House tells Thirteen that her then high school boyfriend is waiting outside his office. However, by adulthood, she was perfectly comfortable with her sexuality, although she preferred to keep her preferences to herself when dealing with colleagues. From her reaction to a patient who also admitted attraction to the same sex in the episode The Softer Side, it appears that she had to handle a great deal of confusion over this during her high school years. In reality, Olivia Wilde was 24 when she started on the show.Īs Remy entered puberty, she realized she was attracted to both sexes. When House said that this made her too young to be a doctor, she accused him of forgetting what year it was (2008 at the time). In House's Head, House mentioned the movie Altered States, released in 1980, and Remy remarked that she hadn't been born then. House offered to euthanize her when the time came and when it was right. In The Dig, it was revealed that Remy's brother also had Huntington's Disease and that Remy's time in prison was due to euthanizing him in the late stages of his illness. Huntington's disease is a genetic illness, and any child of a person with Huntington's has a 50% chance of inheriting the disease from an affected parent. In Season 5, she regretted not having said goodbye. When Anne was finally institutionalized when Remy was about ten, Remy refused to accompany her on the trip to the care facility despite her father's urging.

As a result, she often lashed out at young Remy and her friends, usually embarrassing her and finally resulting in their alienating each other. While Remy was still quite young, Anne started exhibiting Huntington's Disease's symptoms, particularly the inability to control her movements or emotional state. She has an older brother (never named and now deceased) who is perhaps seven to ten years older than her, and a younger sister, Amy Hadley, about two years younger. Remy Hadley was the child of John Hadley and Anne Hadley and was born in New York City sometime in the early 1980s. You could get hit by a bus tomorrow, the only difference is you don't have to know about it today, so why should I?' ―Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley Family background Virtues: Compassionate and treats everyone equally rather than judging them.Įndearing traits: Secrecy about personal life, compassion towards patients, doesn't hide when she's angry at someone (ex: a patient). Vices: Difficulties in coping with death, reckless disregard for personal safety. Has a conventionally attractive appearance. Signature look: Wavy brown hair (sometimes straight, mostly tied up), casual dress, lab coat, usually high black leather boots, turtlenecks, leather jackets, long pants, and suspenders. This is perhaps because of her experimental drug use in the past. For example, she treats drug addicts the same way as a patient without drug addiction. Thirteen often sees past a lot of the stereotypes that the other doctors have of people. Personality type: Mysterious, self-contained. House blurts out her reason is to make her life matter before it's over. Hadley originally felt that not knowing whether she had Huntington's empowered her to take challenges and risks like competing for a position under House. Reason for Becoming a Doctor: Currently unknown, although Dr.
