* Dr. Habit's bulletin board demonstrates that he has a soft spot for Putunia, as he writes "So strong. Little one understands. :-(" (with the implication that she, like Habit, [[AbusiveParents comes from an abusive background]]). Habit's InsaneTrollLogic philosophy predicates on how people who are sad have all of their teeth despite never using them to smile, and it's implied that this insecurity stems from his own father knocking out Habit's teeth in a moment of anger. Putunia, arguably, is the exact type of person Habit wants to "help" with his delusional mindset: she's a CheerfulChild from an abusive background who has a missing tooth.
** Her name is even a reference to both aspects of Habit's character: Petunia is a type of flower, while Mollar is a type of tooth.

* At first, it doesn't seem to make much sense for Kamal to relegate the duty of talking down Dr. Habit to Flower Kid, as Kamal was Habit's friend and coworker for a long time and undoubtedly knows him better. However, there are a few reasons why this makes sense to do:
** In RealLife, trying to confront a close friend/lover about a mental health crisis can make things more complicated when both parties involved have a tendency to get hostile and bring up old issues, especially since Kamal's feelings about Habit are already quite messy, as he is putting both positive and negative memories they've shared into context. Perhaps it's better for Flower Kid to do it as an objective third party with none of the baggage that Kamal and Habit have between them, and Habit is likelier to listen to an unbiased source.
** Habit also already insulted Kamal's teeth (which seem to be a sore spot for him) and Kamal was already reeling from his mistreatment and firing, and forcing him to relive that would be pretty cruel. If Kamal confronted him, its likely Habit would merely shut him down like before. Because Flower Kid is an AudienceSurrogate and Dr. Habit doesn't know anything about them, it makes it much harder for Habit to poke at any insecurities they may have and likelier to listen.
