"Fear of Flying" is the 17th episode of the second season of ''Series/BarneyMiller''.
Wojo brings into the squad room one Fred Clooney, who is a bigamist. Mr. Clooney says that he is a Gemini and this has led him to do everything in his life, including getting married, in twos. Mr. Clooney's other wife is in Cleveland and Wojo has to escort him there to face charges. This is a problem because, as it turns out, Wojo is afraid of flying. The situation becomes more serious when Mrs. Clooney--the New York version, that is--comes into the squad room and swallows a bottle of sleeping pills.
In other news, the detectives of the 12th are shocked when one Mr. Woolen brings in $3500 he found in a satchel in the street. In personal news, Fish's wife Bernice is pissed at him because he suggested they take separate vacations.
----
!!Tropes:
* BadToTheLastDrop: What do the detectives use as an emetic after Mrs. Clooney swallows a bottle of pills? Yemana's coffee, of course! And it works, as Mrs. Clooney lives after she pukes Yemana's coffee all over the ambulance.
* BlowingARaspberry: Mrs. Clooney blows a raspberry at her two-timing husband as she's taken out of the squad room.
* CallBack: Fish is irritated when Bernice abruptly hangs up on him. At the end of the episode, he takes a call from her, says "Hello, Bernice?", then slams the phone back down.
-->'''Fish''': That felt good!
* DrivenToSuicide: Mrs. Clooney swallows a bottle of pills. The detectives save her life by feeding her Yemana's coffee.
* FaceYourFears: Wojo has to fly. He eventually forces himself to do it, saying that a man has to face his fears, "even if it kills him."
* TheGamblingAddict: When Wojo tells everyone that he has to fly to Cleveland, Yemana gives him $1 and tells him to take out flight insurance and name Yemana the beneficiary.
-->'''Yemana''': It's the gambler in me!
* OneEpisodeFear: Wojo is revealed to have a fear of flying.
* SecretOtherFamily: Mr. Clooney has wives in Cleveland and New York.
* ShoutOut: The title is a ShoutOut to very popular 1970s novel ''Literature/FearOfFlying'', which is not actually about a fear of flying but about the sex life of a woman who ReallyGetsAround. Harris tricks Wojo into taking the book with him, and it actually works in getting Wojo's mind off having to fly.
* TakeThat: A lot of jokes about how much Cleveland sucks.
-->'''Mr. Clooney''': They're taking me to Cleveland by force!\\
'''Yemana''': It's the only way I'd go.
* ThatCameOutWrong: When Fish says Bernice thinks he wants to have an affair, Barney scoffs and says "You couldn't do a thing like that!" After a DeathGlare from Fish Barney realizes that what he said could be taken in a couple of different ways, and he starts furiously backtracking.
* TVTelephoneEtiquette: DiscussedTrope. After Bernice's conversation with Fish ends, Fish indignantly says "She hung up on me!" Chano says how much he admires people who hang up with TVTelephoneEtiquette. At the end of the episode Fish does the same, hanging up right after he takes the phone and says "Hello, Bernice?"
