History Recap / TheInternsS13E5

Phil, who's still unaware that Katia is a prostitute, starts asking Polina for details: who she is, what she likes, etc, so he may prepare a better date. Polina gives him maximally vague answers to just cut off awkward conversation, and rushes to Timur. They ''must'' find a way to deal with this situation before it goes too far, since Phil would never forgive them for breaking his heart in such a cruel way (with which Timur agrees). Even worse: she may be a con artist (otherwise, why she would even bother with these dates?) who would drug him out to rob him -- of his money in the best case, and of his internal organs in the worst case. And even if she isn't a con artist and is "just" a prostitute, she quite possible may simply charge them for all this time, which would be ''a lot'' of money. Timur and Polina starts pressing Katia to reveal just ''why'' she continues dating Phil, but she insists that she ''really'' likes him -- which also means that nope, they're not required to pay her, she did this on her own initiative. Now, Timur thinks that they may just leave them alone -- Phil would dump Katia anyway, as intelligent with him has no future with a hooker, but it wouldn't be ''their'' fault. Polina, however, fears that ''something'' is wrong. Comes evening, and Phil is on a date with Katia. Everything goes fine, but she feels awkward, and finally gathers enough courage to reveal something important to him... Meanwhile, Timur insists on waiting until Phil returns, so they may apologise -- only for him to state that he's in love, because Katia is perfect. Turns out that, instead of revealing the truth about herself, she lied to him about her ill father, whom she must visit.

Bykov, in his usual manner, takes Kupitman's phone to see his messages, and learns that he had a date with his lover here, in the hospital -- but not her name. So, he orders Lyuba to move away from his "ambush site", and starts watching; the first woman who shows up is... Kisegach, who's asking about Kupitman. Bykov tries to ask Kisegach what she's doing here -- and then Kupitman himself finally shows up and explains that he called Kisegach exactly to humiliate Bykov; he knows that Bykov reads his messages, and isn't happy with it at all. Bykov then tells Kisegach about the information he just learned. Firstly, they know for sure that Kupitman has a new woman. Secondly, she works here, in their hospital. And thirdly, which is the most strange: Kupitman hides her from everyone! That last part surprises even Kisegach: they knows that Kupitman takes pride in his sexual advances, but keeps ''that one'' secret. I can't be an affair with a married woman, since these he takes as special achievements. Unfortunately, they have too little information to speculate upon, so they decides to ask their main "information centre" -- Lyuba. Lyuba and Kupitman starts working on Kupitman's cover story: they must find whom they may pass as Kupitman's lover to deceive Bykov. But whom? Kupitman's patients? No one would believe that he's that stupid. Nurse Olya from his department? She's a lesbian with forty years of "experience", and everyone knows it; even if she would suddenly fall for a man, it wouldn't be Kupitman. Kupitman angrily tells Lyuba to stop rejecting his ideas, and start offering hers -- only for her to point that it's Kupitman's fault that Bykov shamelessly reads his mail. Kupitman gets even angrier, and suggests to stop even bothering with excuses: why they're hiding like they're doing something criminal? This secrecy gets more and more detrimental while also involving more and more people, so may as well tell Bykov now, before he finds out on his own. But when they finally tells this to Bykov... he doesn't believe them, thinking that it's some kind of unfunny joke. Kupitman -- with Lyuba? He would rather believe in his romance with Queen of England! Kupitman, angry at such reaction, tries to continue arguing, but Lyuba stops him: if Bykov is so stubborn in his disbelief, it's his problem, not theirs.

Just when it seems that they heard the last from Yakov, Sophia reveals that ''he'' would organise everything for their wedding -- and she means ''everything''. He doesn't give a crap about either her or Gleb's opinions and wishes. Neither one is happy with it, but Sophia thinks that there's no way to fight her father when he has a different opinion; you either do as he wish, or... nope, there's no "or", you ''would'' do as he wish. Sophia still insists that there's no way to fight with Yakov's stubbornness -- but Gleb wouldn't give up without at least trying. They wouldn't let Yakov to make ''their'' special day into his own. He is so self-confident that Sophia starts believing that they have a chance. When they finally comes up with a solid plan (vampire-themed wedding), Gleb calls Yakov, so they may just tell him as is and inform him that he ''can't'' ignore their wishes... only for Yakov to somehow convince even him. And, as a cherry on top of the cake, wedding would be in Kirov, for Sophia's grandma Nora's convenience (she has bad health). Gleb tries to ask his mother for help, expecting her to over-argue Yakov. Kisegach fails to convince Yakov, but she knows who else may stand a chance -- Bykov; he has just as unbreakable willpower and ability to force people into doing his bidding. If he can't do this, no one can. To everyone's surprise, Bykov manages to... no, not win completely, but fight back some positions. Wedding ''would be'' in Moscow... and that's it: there would be no "vampire wedding", they would take 70% of expenses, and they ''would'' find a way to transport grandma Nora (that last one was absolutely non-arguable, either wedding would happen with her, not it wouldn't happen at all). Kisegach actually laughs over the last one.

* ControlFreak: Just when it seems that they heard the last from Yakov, Sophia reveals that ''he'' would organise everything about their wedding -- and she means ''everything''. He doesn't give a crap about either her or Gleb's opinions and wishes. In the end, not even Bykov manages to convince him, with the sole victory being that the wedding would still happen in Moscow.
* FailedASpotCheck: Bykov and Kisegach misses every single clue that there's something between Kupitman and Lyuba worth investigating (Lyuba being in the place where Kupitman planned his date; Lyuba stubbornly refusing to provide them with information about Kupitman, pretending that there're no rumours at all, only agreeing to play along when they threatened to ask Rita).

* ImagineSpot: When Polina reveals to Phil that Katia is a prostitute, he seemingly reacts well... then he stands up and jumps out of the window. Fortunately, it turns out that this is how Polina imagined it would work. She almost rushes to inform Phil right here and now, but Timur suggests to wait a bit more: Phil is of much higher cultural level than Katia, and would become bored with her very quickly, dumping her wether she reveals herself as a prostitute or not.
* SeriousBusiness: There's one thing for which Yakov would fight to the end -- they ''would'' bring grandma Nora with them, no matter what, so if they want to throw a wedding in Moscow, they must find a way to bring her here (and she's a sick old woman), like using an ambulance to move her all the way from Kirov.

* TakeThat: When Sophia suggests the vampire-themed wedding, Gleb says that (hopefully) she didn't take this idea from ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''. Sophia reveals that she disdains ''Twilight''.

Phil still isn't aware what Katia is prostitute, and invites her on a date; weirdly, but their affection seems to be mutual. Bykov read Kupitman's messages, and now knows what he has a woman -- but not her name. Gleb and Sophia must find a way to ensure what Yakov ''wouldn't'' usurp their right to plan out their own wedding.

Phil, who's still unaware what Katia is prostitute, started asking Polina for details: who she is, what she likes, etc, so he may prepare a better date. Polina gave him maximally vague answers to just cut off awkward conversation, and rushed to Timur.

And even if she isn't a con artist and "just" a prostitute, she quite possible may simply charge them for all this time, which would be ''tons'' of money.

So, he ordered Lyuba to move away from his "ambush site", and started watching -- and first woman who showed up was... Kisegach, who started walking around, asking for Kupitman.

Just when it seemed what they heard the last from Yakov, Sophia revealed what ''he'' would organise everything about their marriage -- and she meant ''everything''. He doesn't give a crap about either her or Gleb's opinions and wishes. Neither one is happy with it, but Sophia thinks there's no way to fight her father when he has different opinion; you either do as he wish, or... nope, there's no "or", you ''would'' do as he wish.

Bykov informs Kisegach about information he just learned. Firstly, they know for sure what Kupitman has new woman. Secondly, she works here, in their hospital. And thirdly, which he finds very strange: Kupitman hides her from everyone! That last one surprised even Kisegach: they know what Kupitman finds weird kind of proud at his sexual advances, but keeps that one secret. It can't be affair with married woman, since these situations he threats as special achievements. Unfortunately, they have too little information to speculate on, so they decided to ask their main "information centre" -- Lyuba.

Timur and Polina started pressing Katia for information just ''why'' she continues dating Phil, but she insists what she ''really'' likes him -- which also means, nope, they are not required to pay her, she did this on her own initiative (though she trolled them at first by playing along with their fears what they owe her large sum). Now, Timur thinks what they may just leave them alone -- Phil would dump her anyway, but it wouldn't be their fault, since they are just not compatible. Polina however, fears what ''something'' is wrong.

Sophia still insists what there's no way to fight with Yakov's stubbornness -- but Gleb wouldn't give up without at least trying. They wouldn't let Yakov to make ''their'' holiday in his own. He is so self-confident, Sophia started believing him.

Lyuba and Kupitman started working on Kupitman's cover story: they must find whom they may pass as Kupitman's lover. But whom? Kupitman's patients? No one would believe what he is that stupid. Nurse Olya from his department? Everyone knows she's lesbian, for forty years already -- if she would fall for a man, it certainly wouldn't be Kupitman. Kupitman angrily told Lyuba to at least give her own ideas instead of only rejecting his -- to which she replied with reminder what it's ''his'' fault what Bykov just reads mail which doesn't belong to him. Kupitman became even angrier and asked why they even ''should'' find excuses and cover stories, like if they're hiding some crime? He is tired of all the secrecy, especially since more and more people learns about them anyway, so it's only matter of time until Bykov would find out anyway. They ''must'' just tell him already and end all this.

When they finally came up with solid plan (vampire-themed wedding), Gleb called Yakov so they may just told him as is and inform him what he ''can't'' ignore their wishes... only for Yakov to somehow convince even him. And, as a cherry on top of the cake, wedding would be in Kirov, for Sophia's grandma Nora's convenience (she has bad health). But Gleb knows who else can over-argue Yakov -- his mother.

Evening. Phil is on a date with Katia. Everything goes fine, but she feels awkward, and finally collects enough courage to reveal something important to him...

Lyuba and Kupitman finally told Bykov the truth about their relationship... and Bykov didn't believe him, thinking this is some kind of unfunny joke. Kupitman -- with Lyuba? He would rather believe in his romance with Queen of England! Kupitman, angry at his reaction, tried to continue arguing with Bykov, but Lyuba told him not to -- if Bykov is so stubborn in his disbelief, what they can do with him? it's Bykov's problem, not theirs.

* CassandraTruth: Just when Lyuba and Kupitman grabbed enough courage to tell Bykov about their relationship... Bykov refused to believe them, thinking this is some kind of unfunny joke, and insulted them both. This actually offended Kupitman who wanted to call Bykov out on this, but Lyuba suggested what if Bykov is so stubborn in his disbelief, then maybe it's for the best.
* ControlFreak: Just when it seemed what they heard the last from Yakov, Sophia revealed what ''he'' would organise everything about their marriage -- and she meant ''everything''. He doesn't give a crap about either her or Gleb's opinions and wishes.

* GilliganCut: Gleb calls Yakov with intentions to told him what they ''would'' do as they want, not as ''he'' want. Cut to Gleb and Sophia walking out of on-call room, with Gleb revealing what not only Yakov vetoed whole "vampire wedding" thing in favour of "classic" (and Gleb actually agreed with his arguments)... and what wedding would be in Kirov, since Sophia's grandma Nora can't move to Moscow, and there would be no wedding without her (she is some kind of family's living good luck charm). They later tried to instead ask Gleb's mother to talk with Yakov (with similar results), and then Bykov.
-->'''Gleb''': ''"Oh shit, I completely missed the moment when I agreed... How I would explain to everyone what they must move to Kirov?"''
* ImagineSpot: When Polina revealed to Phil what Katia is prostitute, he seemingly reacted well... then he stand up and jumped out of the window.

-->'''Bykov''': ''"And the last condition what what I and Kupitman must ride to Kirov on ambulance and bring back someone called grandma Nora. Stop laughing, they fought for that point particularly hard"''.\\
'''Kisegach''': ''"I just realised: we'' really ''can't do anything without grandma Nora"''.
* TakeThat: When Sophia suggested vampire-themed wedding, Gleb asked what (hopefully) she didn't take this idea from ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''. She was offended by him even presuming this.
-->'''Sophia''': ''"This isn't about vampires at all; this is merely some cartoon for schoolgirls"''.
* ThemedWedding: Gleb's original plan involved vampire-themed wedding. But he was unable to overarguing Yakov and was forced to agree on "classic" wedding.
