Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. At the beginning of the episode we find Henry and Radar in Henry's office, suffering from the cold. A recent shipment of supplies has come in but unfortunately, the items are useless given the cold weather. What two summer items does Henry mention in his letter to the supply station?

Answer: mosquito netting and summer underwear

While dictating this letter to Radar, Henry states 'I am wearing so many pairs of cotton drawers my thighs don't know each other any more.' Radar faithfully jots down this comment...
2. Who is the first to possess the long john underwear?

Answer: Hawkeye

Hawkeye's father, being the caring individual that he is, sent Hawkeye this pair of long underwear in order that Hawkeye be warm. At the beginning of the show, Hawkeye makes the mistake of revealing his secret to warmth with Trapper...
3. How does Trapper acquire the long johns?

Answer: Pretending to be sick

Trapper, who has a silly sounding sneeze, is the second person to wear the long johns in this particular episode, cajoling them out of Hawkeye through the use of guilt.
4. Trapper loses the long johns to Radar. How does this come to pass?

Answer: Poker game

How else does anything silly happen on M*A*S*H but through card games? 'Soft as a baby's bottom,' or so says Trapper. Unfortunately, Trapper, who believes he will win with his full house, loses the underwear to Radar who has two pairs...of 10s!
5. Radar passes up a terrific date with a beautiful nurse when he trades his newly accrued set of long johns to the camp cook. What food item does he get in return?

Answer: A complete leg of lamb with mint jelly

Traditionally, mint jelly would be the condiment associated with a leg of lamb...yum!
6. How does Frank, the next possessor of the long johns, acquire the underwear from the cook?

Answer: Bribe

The cook, who fears that he will be 'busted' down in rank by Frank for keeping an unhygienic kitchen, suggests Frank take the underwear in return for not reporting him.
7. When Margaret asks what Frank would give up for her, what does he offer?

Answer: The moon

'That would be nice Frank...IF you had it!' Margaret's intent is to have Frank suggest giving up his wife, but she eventually settles for Frank's long johns which she grabs from him while angrily forcing him to leave her tent.
8. Who acquires the underwear next, via theft from Margaret's tent?

Answer: Klinger

Klinger, using the bayonet from his rifle, cleverly removes the pair of long johns from where they hang in Margaret's tent.
9. The long johns are handed over to Father Mulcahy next. Mulcahy has the fortune of wearing the long underwear overnight, but then loses possession. How does this occur?

Answer: He gives them up of his own free will

After having acquired the underwear from a guilt-ridden Klinger, Mulcahy decides to hand them over to Colonel Blake...but not before having a warm and pleasant sleep in them!
10. Colonel Blake is next to come into possession of the long underwear. After being threatened and cajoled by Hawkeye and Trapper, the Colonel comes upon what physical misfortune?

Answer: Appendicitis

Henry's appendix attacks and Trapper and Hawkeye are forced to remove it...but the underwear aren't damaged. They return back to Hawkeye, their rightful owner, who doesn't make the same mistake a second time by falling for Trapper's fake cough bit.
