Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This episode opens in the Swamp, where Hawkeye and BJ find themselves, what else, bored and doing anything they can to make the time go by. While Hawkeye knits (yes, knits!), he tells BJ of a fantasy that features the latter with which Hollywood actress?
2. Frank Burns arrives at the Swamp to break up, or perhaps enhance, the monotony. In his hand he carries a gift from his receptionist, which he shows to Hawkeye and BJ. What sort of rather childish gift has Frank received?
3. More important than Frank's gift is the section of the 'New York Times' in which the item has been wrapped. This section of the Times contains the world famous Times' crossword, much to Hawkeye's delight. The scene shifts to the O.R. where the doctors and nurses work away at the crossword with Father Mulcahy's assistance. Father Mulcahy asks for a six-letter word for a 'burrowing animal'. What is Frank's guess?
4. Following the O.R. session we are directed to the mess tent where Hawkeye laments his inability to finish the crossword puzzle. They only need to answer 38 across and the puzzle will be completed. The clue asks for a 5-letter word for bedbug in what language?
5. Frustrated to the point of desperation, Hawkeye remembers that he has a friend named Tippy Brooks who works as a doctor for the Navy. Brooks is not only a naval doctor, but also a crossword puzzle whiz. On what naval ship does Brooks serve?
6. In a side plot, Klinger is working on his latest shenanigan to end all shenanigans. This time, in order to acquire his beloved Section Eight, he has decided to eat a jeep. Which of these jeep parts do we see Klinger begin to consume during this scene?
7. Hawkeye's friend, Lieutenant Brooks, arrives that evening with an admiral. They believe that a true medical emergency is on hand. What is the name of the Admiral?
8. Not having a legitimate reason for having summoned Lieutenant Brooks and the Admiral, the doctors walk the two of them through the post-op ward in hopes that they can cover for themselves. When the Admiral notices that no true emergency exists he is rather irked, and suggests that he will press charges. Just then, who rushes into the post-op, announcing that several civilians have suffered from burns?
9. With a true emergency on hand, all available personnel are needed to assist in the O.R. Fortunately, not only is Hawkeye's friend Tippy a doctor, the Admiral is as well.
10. Finally, by the end of the episode the Admiral and Lieutenant Brooks are ready to make their way back to their ship. Before leaving, however, the Admiral provides the missing word that Hawkeye has been seeking to finish the crossword puzzle. What is this 5-letter word that begins with the letter 'V'?
