Mr. House / René Auberjonois Impression
Singysinger for Robert House
Shrewd, arrogant, reclusive, and gifted with a towering intellect, House is based on Howard Huges and voiced by René Auberjonois. His accent is archaic, mid-century Mid-Atlantic.
Please give us your best René Auberjonois/Mr. House impression. And while having a tone similar to the original will undoubtedly help, we're really more interested in hearing effort placed on mimicking the unusual accent and delivery style of the original.

Of course you haven't. Vegas always was one of a kind. What you see down on the Strip is just a fraction of the city's former glory, and yet... more than an echo. I preserved its spirit.[Restraining anger, losing it a little towards the end.]
By the time I was 30 years old, I was a billionaire 30 times over. I founded and ran a vast economic empire. Do you really think I'm going to let an upstart come into my home and ransom my property to me? I spent two centuries searching for the Platinum Chip. It's my invention, my property - mine. Now be a good courier and deliver it![Amused.]
It's curious. I've noticed that even those who claim everything is predetermined and that we can do nothing to change it look before they cross the road.
