Gleb gets warned by Kisegach that if he would shout on patients again, he would be punished. Unfortunately, his new patient is deaf like a trunk, so there may be no other way. When he predictably snaps and starts shouting on the patient (who just ''keeps'' misunderstanding him), he immediately gets busted by his mother. But when she attempts to do his work for him, she gets the same results (and even gets busted herself, this time by the patient's daughter). Only then she apologises to Gleb.

* BadLiar: Phil must cover for Lobanov (who leaved for new shoes), but his attempts to lie to Bykov sounds too clumsy to be believable.
* BrokenAesop: Phil learns that snitching is bad. Not a bad lesson, especially given the taboo Russian culture puts on it. Unfortunately, the story teaches that moral through Lobanov, who regularly breaks the rules (both minor and major), and who's frequently used as the resident AntiroleModel.

** Gleb's second patient is an old man with ''extremely'' bad hearing; he either can't hear Gleb at all, or hears [[SustainedMisunderstanding anything but what was really said to him]]. Gleb quickly gets tired of attempting to calmly explain what he needs, and starts shouting. Unfortunately, he just gets busted by Kisegach (he had a conflict with her about other case when he shouted on a patient not long ago -- again, [[TooDumbToLive for a very good reason]]), and [[NotWhatItLooksLike now has to explain what it was]].
** When Kisegach tries to treat Gleb's deaf patient by herself, she achieves the same results, including shouting on him and being busted (by the patient's daughter this time). Only after that she reluctantly accepts her wrongness and returns Gleb his keys.
* MistakenConfession: When Bykov tells Phil that he would stay on a night shift, "[Phil] know for what", he thinks that it was for his attempt to cover for Lobanov, and comes to apologise before Bykov. Then he learns that Bykov was unaware about this, because he told Phil about a night shift only [[ItMakesSenseInContext because Varya asked him for that]]. Now, Phil has a legitimate reason for his night shift (for his lie attempt), ''[[OhCrap and]]'' he accidentally [[TheStoolPigeon let Semyon down, again]], so they would spent that night shift ''together''.

** Gleb's next patient is a [[ICantHearYou deaf old man]], who can hear that Gleb tells him something, but can't hear anything specific, and when he can, he ''always'' hears [[SustainedMisunderstanding something entirely unrelated]]. Naturally, Gleb resolves to shouting on him, just in time for Kisegach to bust him again.
** Ultimately, Kisegach herself gets busted yelling on a deaf patient by patient's daughter. The patient then fails to hear what his daughter says, too.
* MissingStepsPlan: Varya's plan involves Bykov announcing that he has two theatre tickets (she hopes that Gleb would take one, and Varya would leave one for herself), and then she would take everything from here. This goes wrong ''immediately'', because Varya didn't think how she would actually ensure that Gleb would get that ticket. The first ticket gets taken by Lobanov (who just wanted to [[TheSlacker leave early]]), and second one by Phil (who's genuinely interested, because it's a classic Russian play). She manages to take a ticket from Semyon without problems ([[LampshadeHanging he tells her that her plan is too insane to work]]), but it would be harder with Phil, since he isn't aware about her and Gleb. So, she asks Bykov to leave Phil on a night shift, which he reluctantly agrees to. Phil no longer needs this ticket, so he gives it to Gleb. Congratulations? Nope, Gleb has a new girlfriend and wants the second ticket for her, so Varya asks Bykov to leave Gleb on a night shift. He refuses to do as she asks for the third time, and instead punishes ''her''.
* PetTheDog: After Varya's attempt to win Gleb [[GoesHorriblyWrong backfires on her]], Bykov takes pity on her, cancels her (deserved) punishment and invites her to watch that play together.

* RuleOfThree: Varya tries to ask Bykov for help three times. First two times, he agrees (giving away the tickets, and leaving Phil on night shift, respectively), but on third time, he punishes Varya herself for wasting everyone's time.



* TheStoolPigeon: Phil rats Semyon out to Bykov (that he leaved his night shift too early). Semyon, of course, is not happy, and decides to "teach" Phil how to "cover" for his friends if they really needs this. But then Bykov ([[ItMakesSenseInContext asked by Varya]]) tells him that he must stay on a night shift, and "he already knows why", just after asking where's Lobanov (to which Phil lied). This leads to Phil [[MistakenConfession accidentally telling Bykov the truth]], which results in both Lobanov and Phil staying on a night shift (Lobanov for his screwup, and Phil for his lie attempt). He does better the third time, when Bykov asks what Lobanov is doing, and Phil hides the fact that Semyon is just sleeping.
* SustainedMisunderstanding: Gleb's [[ICantHearYou deaf patient]] either can't hear what Gleb tells him at all, or hears something entirely unrelated. [[OverlyLongGag For basically half of the episode]].
* TooDumbToLive: Gleb's first patient suffers from pneumonia, but decides to ignore his procedures, and instead just sit and smoke, which would obviously make his condition even worse. When Gleb tells him that this is very stupid idea, he rudely tells him that he doesn't care. No wonder, Gleb starts act rudely in turn.

Phil rats Lobanov out to Bykov, not realising just how unacceptable the snitching is in Russian culture. Lobanov decides to teach him how to cover for other people, by forcing Phil to cover for him while Semyon is away from the hospital. Meanwhile, Varya decides to ask Bykov for leaving Phil on a night shift (for any reason he can find). Bykov's choice of words leads to Phil mistaking it for him being busted, and he confesses to Bykov, which leads to both Phil and Semyon staying on a night shift (for lie attempt and leaving during working hours, respectively).

Gleb was warned by Kisegach that if he would shout on patients again, he would be punished. Unfortunately, his new patient is deaf as trunk, so there may be no other way. When he predictably snaps and starts shouting on the patient (who just ''keeps'' misunderstanding him), he immediately gets busted by his mother. But when she attempts to do his work for him, she gets the same results (and even gets busted herself, this time by the patient's daughter). Only then she apologises to Gleb.

Varya has new a plan how to date Gleb: she has two theatre tickets, but must somehow hide from him that they are from her, so she asks Bykov for help. Everything goes wrong immediately, because one ticket gets taken by Lobanov, and the second one by Phil. Varya manages to persuade Semyon to just give her that ticket (he was not interested in the play anyway, it was just an excuse to leave early), but it would be harder with Phil.

Just when Varya finally has everything set up, Gleb tells her that he has a new girlfriend, and wants that second ticket for her. Varya decides to ask Bykov to leave him on a night shift as well, but Bykov, already tired of her schemes, punishes ''her'' instead, and lets Gleb go.

Unfortunately, the story teaches that moral through Lobanov, who regularly breaks the rules (both minor and major), and who's frequently used as the resident AntiroleModel. While Lyuba (who's more sympathetic character) supports this view, she gives no ''other'' arguments than "it's bad". Ultimately, the story gives the "snitching is petty" moral at most, but even then, the sole time Phil did snitch on Lobanov voluntarily, it was before he learned why it's bad.

* BrokenAesop: Phil learns that snitching is bad. Not a bad lesson, especially given the taboo Russian culture puts on it. Unfortunately, the story teaches that moral through Lobanov, who regularly breaks the rules (both minor and major), and who's frequently used as the resident AntiroleModel. While Lyuba (who's more sympathetic character) supports this view, she gives no ''other'' arguments than "it's bad". At most, the story gives the "snitching is petty" moral, but even then, the sole time Phil did snitch on Lobanov voluntarily, it was before he learned why it's bad.
* CultureClash: Phil learns the hard way what that [[TheStoolPigeon snitching on other people]] is ''far less'' tolerable in Russia than in USA, and considered to be betrayal.

* MissingStepsPlan: Varya's plan involves Bykov announcing what that he has two theatre tickets (she hoped what that Gleb would take one, and Varya would leave one for herself), and then she would take everything from here. This goes wrong ''immediately'', because Varya didn't plan how she would actually ensure that Gleb would get that ticket. The first ticket was gets taken by Lobanov (who just wanted to [[TheSlacker leave early]]), and second one by Phil (who was genuinely interested, because it was a classic Russian classic play). She managed manages to take a ticket from Semyon without problems ([[LampshadeHanging he only tell tells her what that her plan is too insane to work]]), but it would be harder with Phil, since he doesn't isn't aware about her and Gleb.

Added DiffLines:

Varya has new plot how to date Gleb: she has two theatre tickets, but must somehow hide from him what they are from her, so she asked Bykov for help. Everything goes wrong immediately, because one ticket was taken by Lobanov, and second one by Phil. Varya managed to persuade Semyon to just give her that ticket (he was not interested in the play anyway, it was just excuse to leave early), but it would be harder with Phil.

Phil ratted out Lobanov to Bykov, not realising just how unacceptable this is amongst Russians. Lobanov decided to teach him how to cover for other people, by forcing Phil to cover for Lobanov while he is away from the hospital. Meanwhile, Varya decided to ask Bykov for leaving Phil on night shift (for any reason he can find). Bykov's chose of words leads to Phil mistaking what he was busted, and confessing to Bykov. This leads to both Phil and Semyon staying on night shift (for lie attempt and leaving during work, respectively).

Gleb was warned by Kysegach what if he would shout on patients again, he would be punished. Unfortunately, his new patient is deaf as trunk, so theres may be no other way. When he predictably snaps and starts shouting on patient, he immediately gets busted by his mother. But when she attempted to do his work, she gets the same results (and even gets busted herself, this time by patient's daughter). Only then she apology to Gleb.

Just when Varya finally had everything set up, Gleb tell her what he has new girlfriend, and wants that second ticket for her. Varya decided to ask Bykov to leave him on night shift as well, but he's already tired of all this, and punishes ''her''.
