* MistakenForRacist: Subverted. An expectant white mother asks if Adam, rather than the even more qualified black midwife Tracey, can deliver her baby. Adam gets very annoyed about this and tells the mother off for being racist, and Tracey (who is more amused than anything else) tells him that she doesn't need a "white knight" looking out for her. The general feeling is that Adam has wildly over-reacted, and he's told to apologise, which he does. Later, during the mother's c-section, Adam encourages Shruti to carry it out, and the baby is delivered. The mother is delighted until she realises that it was Shruti who actually delivered it, whereupon she explodes "Tell that Paki to get her hands off my baby!". After that particular incident, Adam snarks that "[[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler Adolf]]" is a good name.
