Someone had wrote on the wall in the restrooms that "Bykov is a bitch!"... but who? Kupitman (and everyone else) suspects Gleb. It wasn't him, but unfortunately, no one believes in his innocence. Gleb asks the other people who may hate Bykov enough to attempt this, and collects ninety candidates... after which Bykov reveals that it was him. Why? To watch how people would react, and what they thinks about him (it didn't take long for other people to start adding something from themselves to initial "bitch").
Semyon warns Phil: if he continues to flirt with Olga, he would kick his ass. Phil asks the other people wether it's okay to date Semyon's ex-wife, but everyone whom he asks tells him to avoid doing this, unless Semyon explicitly permits him. Phil decides to ask him for it directly... by drinking some vodka with him. Semyon still forbids him (even when he gets deathly drunk), and Phil tries to tell about this to Olga... but is too drunk to remember a reason why they must break up. She decides to take him to her house, since he's too drunk to move by himself.
Varya's patient is a young man... who entrusts her with his dark secret: he suffers from impotency; the problem is not physiological, but rather purely psychological in nature, he has some kind of "mental block" in his head. She asks Kupitman to help him... and he tells her that her patient just tries to fool her into attempting to "cure" him, in hope to seduce her (this is a common trick). Varya decides to test wether it is indeed the case, and learn more about patient's past... only for him to tell her a sob story about his first sexual experience which ended badly (he got "stuck" in his girlfriend when she had seizure, and only doctors managed to set him free) and got him a mental trauma. Varya believes in this, but Kupitman convinces her that this is a lie, even more blatant than the first one. Angry Varya humiliates the guy before the other patients by telling them about his impotency... and only after that she learns from Bykov that the story, while ridiculous, indeed happened: Bykov was presented during the operation. Oops...
This episode provides examples of:
- Cassandra Truth: Varya's patient apparently has a mental trauma-induced impotency. Kupitman (whom Varya asked for help) thinks that this is a (poorly disguised) attempt to fool Varya into trying to "cure" him, which would allow the patient to seduce her (Kupitman knows what he's saying, because he used same trick multiple times; it's just as effective as pretending to be gay, which he also used, sometimes simultaneously with the first one). When Varya starts asking the patient about this, he tells her a sob story about his first sexual contact with a girl, when he somehow got "stuck" in her (when she had a seizure) so hard, it took a team of doctors to disconnect them. Varya believes him and is driven to tears. She tells about this to Kupitman, too, and he explains to her that this is a lie, too. She gets angry and rushes to the patient. Unfortunately, patient did not lie about his impotency (despite the story sounding absurd), and Varya only learns this after publicly humiliating him. Yes, even that story about him being "stuck" in his girlfriend was true: Bykov was one of those doctors.
- The Bro Code: Everyone whom Phil asks wether he may date Olga without Semyon's permission tells him that while it's not formally forbidden, it would be a dick move from his side.
- Crazy Jealous Guy: Lobanov is extremely jealous of Phil starting to become close with Olga, and confronts him about this. He directly threatens to kick his ass if he doesn't stop.
- Crying Wolf: No one believes Gleb when he insist that he is not the one who wrote "Bykov is a bitch!" on the wall in the restroom. Bykov later even lampshades the fact that Gleb has a list of ninety other suspects who hates Bykov enough, and yet everyone still suspects not them, but Gleb, without any evidences. In truth, it was... Bykov himself.
- Deadpan Snarker: When Bykov and Kupitman notices that someone had wrote on the wall in the restroom that "Bykov is a bitch!", Kupitman assumes that it was Romanenko. Bykov asks why he suspects him, to which Kupitman replies with sarcasm.Bykov: Why're you thinking it was him?
Kupitman You're sleeping with his mother, living in his house and standing between him and his money. No, it can't be him. - In Vino Veritas: Since the normal dialogue would lead to nowhere, Phil tries to "explain" his position to Semyon while drinking some vodka together. Their "dialogue" is incomprehensible, but they somehow understands each other. Lobanov still forbids him to date Olga, though. Phil tries to explain this to Olga, but is too drunk to remember and only manages to tell her that they must break up, but not why. She decides that he's too drunk to leave him alone, and takes him to her house, which leads to them having sex. When Phil realises this in the morning, he also realises that Semyon would kill him for that.
- Lampshade Hanging: When Lyuba demands that Gleb must clean "his" words "he" leaved on the wall (about Bykov being "a bitch"), he's surprised not by her accusing him of doing this (everyone considers it was him, she is not exception), but by the fact that she somehow noticed this in the male restroom, which he immediately points out.
- Playing Hard to Get: Kupitman thinks that Varya's patient fakes his impotency (which he has for "psychological reasons") to fool her into trying to "cure" him, so he may seduce her (this is a common trick, just as effective as pretend to be gay; Kupitman successfully used them both before at several occasions, sometimes even in tandem).
- Who Murdered the Asshole: Someone had wrote on a wall that "Bykov is a bitch". To prove his innocence, Gleb must find who had really done that... the problem is, there's no lack of suspects: Bykov angered many people (mostly by his sense of humour), and Gleb comes up with a list of ninety other people. In the end, Bykov reveals that he wrote this himself. It didn't take long for other people to start adding something from themselves near original writing, and their opinions about him was Bykov's motivation to do this in the first place.
