Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. One of the most beloved guest stars, namely Colonel Flagg, shows up at the beginning of the episode. Edward Winter is the actor who played Colonel Flagg on 'M*A*S*H'. Is this Winter's first appearance on the show?

Answer: No

Indeed not. Edward Winter showed up first in the 'M*A*S*H' episode 'Deal Me Out', where he played a certain Captain Halloran, also part of military intelligence. It could very well be that this Captain Halloran was just another of Colonel Flagg's aliases.
2. Colonel Flagg has broken his arm, ostensibly why he has arrived at the 4077th. How did this painful mishap take place?

Answer: Helicopter crash

Specifically, Colonel Flagg fractured his radius in the crash, while the chopper pilot miraculously walked away unscathed. Later, it is suggested that Flagg may have fractured the arm himself, something an incredulous Hawkeye has a hard time believing, that is, until Flagg re-injures his own arm using the x-ray machine.
3. Colonel Flagg pays a visit to Henry's office after he has recovered from his surgery. During his meeting with Henry, he provides the bewildered C.O. of the 4077th with a laundry list of different aliases he uses. Which of these is a female name that Flagg goes by on occasion?

Answer: Louise Klein

Among his other aliases are: Major Brooks, Lieutenant Carter and Ensign Troy. When Henry inquires about 'Colonel Flagg', Flagg responds, 'Colonel Flagg was never here, you can tell your people.'
4. In the Swamp, Trapper is pleased to introduce Hawkeye to an old friend who has just walked in. What name does Trapper use for this friend, who seems to have as many aliases as Flagg?

Answer: Vinny Pratt

Trapper claims to have introduced Vinny Pratt to his wife, and Vinny calls Trapper 'The Old Dirty Doctor'. Vinny, it seems, has taken a position in army intelligence.
5. Trapper's friend is on a secret intelligence mission at the 4077th, he seems to be on the trail of Colonel Flagg. While at the camp, he requests that his old pal Trapper and the perplexed Hawkeye call him Captain Stone. What function in the army does this Captain Stone have?

Answer: Engineer

At first, Pratt wants to be known as Captain Perkins, a priest. When Trapper suggests that they already have a camp priest, he suddenly switches gears and becomes Captain Stone, engineer. Later, He is also called Major Strauss and Martinez. How confusing!
6. Captain Stone arrives in Henry's office, and insists the bewildered Colonel play along with him. He wants to discover what Colonel Flagg is up to, and he will stop at nothing to find out. How does he convince Henry to help him out?

Answer: He threatens to reveal some illicit meetings Henry has had with other women

It seems that Henry has engaged in some dalliances at home. In one case, he signed up at a certain Happy Hour Motel in Elkhart, Indiana as 'Mr. Carl Williams and daughter'. Another time, he met a certain Linda Collins, a 'rent-a-car girl' in Houston during an AMA convention. 'You can count on my full and fearful cooperation,' Henry suggests.
7. In Radar's office, Colonel Flagg sends an insane-sounding message to his headquarters. How does he finally sign this note full of gibberish?

Answer: Queen Victoria

His telegram is addressed to the 'Far East Export-Import Company' at 27 Zapata Circle, Tijuana, Mexico. It begins, 'Mary had a little lamb', and gets even more ridiculous from there.
8. Trapper and Hawkeye decide to play a little game with Colonel Flagg and Captain Stone. They direct them both to search the file of what camp member, suggesting that they will find something very interesting in said file?

Answer: Frank

Naturally, they pick on Frank. Hawkeye hatches the brilliant plan after Captain Stone witnesses Frank's self-righteous and overzealously patriotic behavior. That evening, both Stone and Flagg are to go to the office to search Frank's file.
9. Radar is, of course, recruited to assist Hawkeye and Trapper in their little ruse. After Colonel Flagg has come and gone from the office, what is Radar's signal supposed to be for Captain Stone to enter?

Answer: Smoking at the door like Marlene Dietrich

Amusingly, when Colonel Flagg leaves Henry's office, he takes a look at the sleeping Radar, who had just been peeking through the door. Radar's glasses are still on. Quickly, Radar takes his glasses off when Flagg's flashlight leaves his face. Suddenly, Flagg takes another look and sees Radar's face, sans glasses. He doesn't notice. Some intelligence officer!
10. At the very end of the episode, Flagg and Stone realize that they have been fooled. Not taking things too hard, they agree to go have a cup of coffee together. Here, Stone calls Flagg by his first name. What name does he use?

Answer: Sam

This is the only time that Colonel Flagg's first name is mentioned, and there is no way to be certain if this is his 'real' given name, so we'll just have to assume it. Happily, he would show up in five more future 'M*A*S*H' episodes!
