[personality]
Lisa Cuddy is a woman who wants everything, but knows that she can't have it. She's worked hard her entire life to be the woman that she is: accomplished (one of the few female Chief of Medicine and Dean of Medicine in the country), wealthy (a very big house in a very nice part of town) and running one of the best hospitals in the country with the best doctors in the world. She can keep Gregory House in line when no one else can, being described by the writers of the show as a "tough as nails woman". It's true, when it comes to the wire, no matter the situation, she attacks it from the angle she deems best. Whether it's recording someone's confession to making meth using hospital supplies or whether it's telling an investigator to leave House alone, Cuddy places the hospital (and House) above herself. She's a woman that cares for her patients, but at the same time, has to face the grim reality of negotiating between insurance and being the "bad guy".
However, as a token to her contrary nature, she does want it all. She gave up having a personal life for having the dream professional life. She worked so hard to become a doctor that she became the top doctor and stopped practicing medicine. Of course, as House constantly guilts her, she's forgotten how to be a doctor and more like a bureaucrat. That fact that she barely gets to practice medicine and spends most of her time chasing after people. She wants to be a mother of her own child, but she spends more time mothering House or telling other doctors not to fight in hallways. She's tried to get pregnant, but sadly, she could. She tried adoption, and it was only when a patient died that she managed to adopt a child. It's there that she realizes that to be a mother to her child, she has to quit her job -- and it crushes her that she's the only one that can do that job because she's the only one that can handle House. It frustrates her, but at the same time, she's glad that she has him. He's the only one that understands her enough to know the conflict that she goes through continually. He might insult her, but at this point in their relationship, she's well aware when he's telling the truth and when he's trying to hurt her.
Despite the fact that she's a tough woman, she harbors a lot of guilt. Guilt over the fact that she ruined House's surgery, making him a cripple allows him to act the way he does. She doesn't give him leeway, but she does given him more freedom than other doctors. House knows her and she knows house; the relationship is addict/enabler (when he's in pain, she gives him vicodin---guilt? or sympathy? it's a fine line with her). House is the exception to her no nonsense rule. She'll put up with anything he does, despite the fact that she knows he's an ass and she'll tell it to his face. Her position of power often conflicts with how House wants to approach a patient, but more importantly, she's the only one that can hold that position of power. She's committed perjury for him, but at the same time, she's gotten so vindictive that she's had his power cut. Lisa Cuddy is one of the few people that can play House at his own game in his turf.

Cuddy always found that if her day did not include the act of stomping down the hallway in her very expensive shoes to find a man that was hiding in a coma patient's room to watch a soap opera, it would mean that she was in the twilight zone. Somewhere between accepting the kind donation to the school from that very rich man (that tight lipped smile would only last as long as he kept looking down her shirt; "Thank you for the contribution, however I'm not free tonight for dinner.") and finding the Jamba Juice in catatonic patient's hand, she realized where he had to be.
As hard as it was to work for House, it was harder for House to work for you. She gave everyone a reassuring smile, trying to counter a preemptive outburst from her employee. The patient's room was the only one that had cable TV with minimal glare and it was only a few steps away from Wilson's office. Hidden, dark, and he had sustenance? It was the perfect lair for House to hide in.
She slid the door open, leaning against the frame with a scowl on her face. It was all a routine by now.
"We pay for cable in patient's rooms for them, not you. For once, can't you pretend like you're a doctor?"
No, that one was too emotional. Didn't she use that one yesterday?
"You have a patient."
A bribe, very good. She would lie, lure him out and then shove him in clinic.
James Bond had nothing on her art of deceit.
