Has Two Daddies disambiguated


* GoneHorriblyWrong: Phil thought that if he would tell his patients about his [[HasTwoDaddies fathers]], he would deprive Bykov of his fun, and come out as a winner. But his patients reacts negatively to this, and all of them asks for another doctor. As Bykov explains to him, telling this to his colleagues is fine (as much as they may love to mock him, they ''would not'' tell this to outsiders), but his patients may (and should) live without that information, because it would not help them in any way and in fact would disrupt his work: Russia is a ''very'' conservative country. He even makes a hypothetical example with a lavement and (supposedly) homosexual doctor: who would entrust his ass to a doctor who may have ulterior motives for that? Now, they must somehow restore his "reputation", or he would not be able to do his work.

* KickTheDog: Continuation of Bykov's "funny" jokes about Phil's [[HasTwoDaddies fathers]] from the previous episode. When just mocking Phil for this is no longer enough, he tells this to Gleb and Semyon. They immediately proceeds to mock Phil even further once he appears.

To prove to Bykov that he can't hurt him by mocking his fathers, Phil decides to just tell his patients himself... which leads to all six of them refusing him, thinking that he is gay.

Varya's patient's husband is sure that she cheats on him, and that her lover would attempt to pay her a visit. She only needs to spot him, and call husband. But that lover is no one else but Kupitman. Varya fails to keep this hidden, and warns the guy, but he doesn't believe that his wife may have an affair with someone so old... until his wife (whom Varya asked for this) confirmed that, after which he barely resists temptation to kill Kupitman right here and now.

Gleb's patient just can't stop hiccuping. When everything else fails, he tries the "folk method" and just scares her, which leads to near-fatal heart attack. Now the only way for Gleb to redeem himself (besides a full week of night shifts) is to cooperate with Phil to help him with his problem... by acting so incompetent, Phil's patient would demand Phil back.

Technically truth, but without anything which can specifically point to him. This fails, because he asks wether she knows who ''specifically'' it was, and she is forced to tell him about Kupitman.
