Tobias Fünke's better half is back!

Amber Tamblyn, also known as the real-life gal-pal of Arrested Development's "analrapist" David Cross, is heading to House this fall, and here's what he know about Princeton Plainsboro's newest doc:

Amber will appear opposite Hugh Laurie in multiple episodes of the Fox hit's seventh season, which premieres Sept. 20. The onetime Joan of Arcadia star is described as a "brilliant and aggressive" med student, hired by Dr. House himself—but there's just one problem: The chick isn't qualified to practice medicine yet. Think that's gonna stop her?

Probably not, once she's dragged into House's twistedish way of doctoring. Poor young thang.
