** "Hold, Please" focuses on the horribly inadequate VA system to get medical assistance for war injuries.
** "Hello, Penelope" emphasizes the importance of taking anti-depressants and properly dealing with depression and anxiety by showing Penelope going off of her meds and quitting therapy and the resulting breakdown. It also makes a point of saying that if someone you love is suffering from a mental illness, you need to remember that just because you don't understand why they're feeling anxious, depressed, lonely, hopeless, or frightened, it doesn't mean that it isn't real ''for them''.
** More than one of the Elena-centric plots in Season Three teaches that, while pride in one's sexuality is important, it is unhealthy to base your whole identity around it and neglect the ''other'' important aspects of yourself.
