Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. I warned the 4077th that it was time for their annual checkups. Good thing I did, because that's how we found out Trapper had an ulcer.

Answer: Henry

Radar started singing "Kalamazoo" before Henry took the microphone away from him and started his awkward announcement.

2. I had to inform the camp that Avery Updike couldn't possibly have killed Sir Winslow. He was locked in the linen closet with Jessica.

Answer: Colonel Potter

In the episode "The Light That Failed" BJ got a book called 'The Rooster Crowed at Midnight,' and he ripped out various chapters for the camp to read along with him. The last page came up missing, and they called the author to find out "whodunnit," but even she didn't get it right when she fingered Avery Updike!

3. I was a disc jockey for a night, helping the camp get through a deluge of patients. I played our C.O.'s favorite tune, "Sentimental Journey" twenty-three times that night.

Answer: Radar

Colonel Potter asked him to play that tune in particular because he had fallen in love with Doris Day when he was younger, but after he married Mildred.

4. Hawkeye and Trapper recorded me saying goodbye to my mistress without our knowledge, and played the message over the PA system.

Answer: Frank Burns

Frank had asked for a transfer and was saying goodbye to Margaret. When she heard their farewell's being broadcast she asked for a transfer too.

5. I broadcasted an angry appeal to a thief that stole money from Hawkeye. When he got it back I was inspired to announce a commandment a week.

Answer: Father Mulcahy

Father Mulcahy found his speech to be rather effective, and told Hawkeye that maybe he could broadcast every Sunday. To this Hawkeye replied, "I wonder if thou shouldst?"

6. I was furious when I thought someone in camp stole one of my newspapers, so I sent a tirade over the PA system. They fired back by stealing everything I owned...except my other newspapers.

Answer: Charles Winchester

Unfortunately by the end of the episode Charles found out that his area in Boston just didn't get the newspaper that day.

7. I told Major Houlihan over the PA that she had a phone call from her father. To get the call she ran into my office wearing nothing but a towel. Holy Toledo!

Answer: Klinger

She greeted him with a shout, saying "You hang up that phone and I'll kill you!" Klinger said to her dad on the phone, "Uh, here's your little angel now sir."

8. In a devious plot, I yelled at Henry over the PA about lifting prints off certain stolen articles. I did it so people would stop blaming me for stealing the stuff.

Answer: Hawkeye

Hawkeye was being accused of stealing personal affects all around the camp. His plan to frame the thief came through, and we found out it was Ho John. He was going to sell them for money to bribe the border guards.

Answer: Margaret

Klinger took the PA apart, and spent the whole night trying to put it back together again. Once Margaret found out he had it turned on while she was talking she threw it against the wall and broke it again. Poor Klinger!

Answer: "Post Op"

The name of this man is Sal Viscuso. He also appeared in "Dear Sigmund" as a patient that rolled over in an ambulance, and once more in "Tea and Empathy" as the soldier that was hiding stolen penicillin.
