I left out something: 'folie a deux is the situation where a paranoid 
delusional system appears to have developed in a person as a result 
of a close relationship with another person who has an established 
and similar delusional system' - from GPNotebook. While this is 
generally rare, Mahesh managed on TTC's to instil a sense of how 
special his teachers were in the newbees. New teachers and old ones 
as well, tended to participate in Mahesh's worldview because they had 
taken it on when they were rounding and very impressionable. 

It's effective, incidious, highly unethical and smacks of 
brainwashing in the worst usages of that term. But what the hey, 
Mahesh needed to feed his narcissism what the hell did he care about 
some stupid ethics. After all, he's the one who said "the lawyers 
will make it legal".
