* '''Enforced''': The character of Dr. Bob is a [[Take That]] an an unpleasant doctor his creator once had the misfortune of seeing.
* '''Lampshaded''': "What do you prefer? A nice doctor to comfort you on your last breath? Or a mean one to healing you?"
* '''Invoked''':
* '''Defied''':
* '''Discussed''': ???
* '''Conversed''': ???
