2. Surprisingly, and at long last, Trapper is featured as the lead character in the operating room (early on it was nearly always Hawkeye). The young soldier that Trapper operates on has been wounded in which area of the body?
3. While Trapper, Margaret and Ugly John sweat it out in the O.R., Colonel Blake and Radar are dealing with a problem of their own in Blake's office, namely how to get a hold of the Colonel's wife in the hospital where she is in labor. Eventually she gives birth...but to a boy or a girl?
4. Is it true or false that Colonel Blake is the only regular M*A*S*H character whose wife gives birth during the course of the series? (With 'course of the series' meaning, that character's time on the show!)
5. With half the gang in the O.R. and the Colonel and Radar busy calling Henry's wife, Hawkeye finds himself alone with Father Mulcahy in the mess tent eating some army slop. Sitting near Hawkeye is Captain Kaplan, the camp dentist, who has just received his orders to return home. Kaplan is rather paranoid about his return home, believing that nearly anyone or anything nearby might 'jinx' him. Which of these behaviors does he not display during this episode?
6. Which of these characters makes his/her final appearance on 'Showtime'?
7. While it was normally the case that Trapper and Hawkeye would torture Frank with endless practical jokes during the early seasons of M*A*S*H, in this episode Frank pulls a series of pranks on Hawkeye. Which of these was not one of the brilliant schemes concocted by Frank in order to 'get' Hawkeye?
8. Aside from the trio of sisters and the comedian, an acoustic band performs, and Radar is featured playing with this band. At which musical instrument does Radar (aka Gary Burghoff) prove quite adept in 'Showtime'?
9. Back to Captain Kaplan, our paranoid camp dentist. Does he make it out of camp safely during this episode, despite his paranoid attempts to protect himself?
