"## [Ragtime]" "What's that step you're doing, Radar?" "You'll have to ask Nurse Kellye." "She's leading." "[Sighs] Another thrilling night of festivity in South Korea." "Hawkeye, if you had your choice, where would you like to be tonight?" " In the whole world, Father?" " Uh-huh." "Back in my tent shaving my corns." " Why don't you go do it?" " I'm saving it for the holidays." "Bartender!" "A man comes off a dusty cattle drive, can't even get a drink." "Coming, sir." "Just keep moving." "I'll catch up." "You're new around here, ain't you, fella?" "You better smile when you say that." "Come on." "Come on!" " Say, ain't you the new schoolmarm?" " Yes, sir." " You wanna fight?" " I would, sir, but I have such delicate features." "Ah, this mad, gay nightlife." "I think I'll get into my plaid knickers... wind up the '32 Packard... run up to Newport for croquet with the Vanderbilts." "Writing home again?" "That's your third letter this week." "Only way I can keep my sanity." "If you want sanity, you can have mine." "God knows, I'm not using it." " Radar, you do the Peabody?" " Not while I'm dancing, sir." "Farewell, you mad fools!" "I'll be in my tent having a martini with a lizard." "[Thinking] You can really go out of your skull here, Peg." "There's just nothing to do when you're not working." "I remember reading Justice Holmes." "He said..." ""War is an organized bore."" "Which brings me to Major Frank Burns, not one of our best doctors." "Hawkeye says he became a surgeon after he washed out at embalmers'school." "This morning he was operating on a kid named Davis... and I was the anesthesiologist." "Sometimes you have to double in gas here." "More suction, nurse." "Stop daydreaming!" "You're there to assist the doctor, Lieutenant." "Give her a doctor, she'll assist him." "Frank, pulse is weakening, blood pressure dropping." "I'm doing everything I can." "This soldier's a mess." "Gee williewockers!" " Sewer mouth." " Why must you ride him?" "I'll stop soon." "I only paid for an hour." " No pulse." " Well, then that's that." " What do you mean?" "Do something!" " He didn't have a chance anyway." " You can't just give up!" " Have you no respect for the dead?" "Cover the belly, Kellye." "Bag him, Frank!" " You're not supposed to tell me what to do." " Bag." " Try open heart massage." " We can do it closed." "I saw it done in the States." "Bag!" " Good." "Rather not open his chest." " Bag him once every five beats." " You're going over my head!" " Everything's over your head, Frank." " Bag!" " Nothing." "Hah!" " Come on, you!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!" " Enjoying your dramatics?" "Bag!" "Bag!" "Hey!" "I'm getting a pulse." "Good." "Better." "It's going." "[Chuckles]" " Another unit of whole blood." " Getting stronger." " Good work, Doctor." " Thank you." "I'm not gonna forget this, Hunnicutt." " He did save the patient, Major." " It was the way he did it!" "[Thinking] 5:00 in the morning, Peg." "I was worried about Davis, so I'm keeping tabs on him." "He's still pretty much up for grabs." " Mornin', Doc." " Klinger." " How's he doin'?" " Hanging in." "Know anything about dreams, Doc?" "I only know I wish I were having one right now." "I had one last night." "I was holding this paper that said, "Klinger is hereby declared nuts." "Signed, Colonel Potter."" "I was saying good-bye to everybody.!" "I even clipped the hair off my chest for Major Houlihan to keep in her watch." "She kissed me right on the mouth." "Next thing I know, I'm in San Francisco." "Sprung!" "Free!" "There's this big parade." "Four bands." "People carrying a banner that says, "Klinger's Nuts!"" "Shh." "Then I'm in Toledo..." "with my loved ones." "And I own a delicatessen." "Eight tables!" "Individual relish jars." "You'll never guess who the waitress is." "Major Houlihan." "And she's still got my hair in her watch... pinned on a see-through blouse." "What does that mean, Doc?" "Well, it just might mean..." " that you wanna go home..." " I knew it!" " With Major Houlihan." " Yech!" " Morning, B. J., Klinger." " [Together] Father." " The same?" " Uh-huh." "Oh, this dreadful war." "The waste!" "The waste." " You gonna stick around a few minutes?" " Yeah." "I'm gonna grab some breakfast." "I won a real egg in a poker game last night." "Lucky devil." "Uh, just a figure of speech." "No change." "You seem jumpy." "Would you like a little phenobarb?" " Maybe 16 milligrams?" " I'd prefer a few milligrams of prayer." " The guys giving you static?" " The static is coming from higher up." " The Lord teed off at you?" " Oh, God forbid." "No." "Actually, the difficulty lies... between the Lord and the troops." "Colonel Maurice Hollister, Divisional Chaplain." " I don't know him." " They call him Attila the Hun of chaplains." "He's coming this afternoon to inspect me and the operations of my flock." "Don't sweat it." "Hawkeye says you're the best chaplain in the business." " Did he really say that about me?" " Mm-hmm." "Ah." "That crazy agnostic." " Do you need me, B. J.?" " Not till Sunday." "If you do, I'll be ironing my cassock." "I'd better iron my underwear too." "Hollister's very thorough." " Oh, the noise!" "The people." " What happened?" " Klinger ate a fresh egg." " I just wrote that to Peggy." "I wouldn't try." "It loses so much in translation." "He had it poached... on a piece of toast freshly baked in 1945." "For a second, it brought back the atmosphere of gracious dining... at Nedick's in Grand Central Station." "I'm starved." "You got any of that cake your wife sent you?" "Yeah, sure." "Elizabeth Taylor married somebody whose name begins with N-I." " N" " I?" " Nixon!" "Elizabeth Taylor married our vice president!" " Nicky Hilton." " Nicky Hilton's our vice president now?" "Here you go." "They also serve who stay at home and bake cakes for us to drink." "It's Peg's first overseas package." "Would you believe that's Annie Get Your Gun?" "I had no idea Ethel Merman was so tall." "Chocolate Jockey shorts?" "[Laughing] The Hershey bars melted on them." "[Radar On P.A.] Attention all personnel." "At 1330 hours..." " we'll be holding the finals of the cockroach race time trials." " You going?" "Nah." "People who go to those things only want to see a cockroach crash." "[Thinking] Hawkeye just came in." "He loved your cake." "He's really one of a kind, our Hawkeye." ""Finest kind,"as he says." "Without him, I think we'd all go nuts." "This morning he read in Life magazine where students at Cal Tech... squeezed 15 people into a Volkswagen." "Hawkeye thought we could beat the record." " [Excited Chattering]" " Nobody breathe for the next ten minutes!" "Let's have no groping, please." "All gropers will report to my tent, and right after that, the "gropees."" "Come on." "Get inside." "We're trying to make a record." " Gage, you're next." "Climb in." " I don't want to." "I'm shy." "Shy, shmy!" "Come on!" "For the glory of the 4077." " The cover of Life magazine." " All those bodies." " Come on." "Here comes Lieutenant Gage." " [All Cheering]" "All right, you guys." "Lie at attention!" "This is completely against military regulations!" " Wholly unauthorized!" " You've got some of my nurses in there." "I'll rinse 'em off before I return them." "Squeeze in, Major." "We got plenty of room." " This is completely beneath me." " I was hoping for that spot myself." "We'll see what Colonel Potter has to say about this!" " How many we got here?" "Count off." " [All Together] One!" " [Laughing]" " Fine." "All we need is 15 more." " Wait!" "Wait!" "I have to take a picture!" " [Horn Honking]" "How 'bout V.D. Films, Radar?" "Is the one we've got adequate?" "I don't know, sir." "Every time it's shown, I faint." "Must be okay then." "Why don't we order Trench Foot Through the Ages... and The Bleeding Gum Story?" " That'll make a good double feature." " Yes, sir." "I'll order those." " Let's see." "There's one other..." " [Knocking At Door]" "Come." "Caught this Korean woman trying to take one of the jeeps, sir." "I'll handle it, Sergeant." "Sit down, madam." " I guess I'll order..." " Why don't you order those films, Radar?" " What's the big idea, Klinger?" " How'd you know?" "Korean women are not noted for hairy knuckles." "I can't take it anymore." "I can't!" "I'll do anything to prove I'm not fit." "I'll..." "I'll wet my bed." "I'll wet your bed!" "I'll wet the whole camp!" "Now, son." "None of us wants to be here." "I don't wanna be here." "Radar doesn't want to be here." "The doctors, the nurses." "Certainly the wounded don't want to be here." "But we've got to do our best." " Understand, son?" " I'm trying." "Then get your butt in high gear and get back to work!" " That your last offer?" " You got it!" "Out!" "Yes, sir." " Colonel, can I see you?" " Do I have a choice?" "It's about Captain Pierce." " He sew up your fly again?" " No, sir." " He spit at you?" " He's stuffing a bunch of personnel into a jeep." "Something about setting a world's record." "[Chuckles] He's a pistol." "Can't you see Pierce is just trying to boost morale?" "My morale is fine." "I love it here." "Either you or Klinger is nuts." "Now I've got to figure out which one." "Come on, Major." "Just one more and we'll have a record!" " Yeah!" "Come on!" " Come on." "Life magazine." "Yeah!" " Will you photograph my best side?" " Absolutely." "I'm gonna set the timer." "Now, get ready." "Okay." "Get back!" "Get back!" " Say "cheese." - [All] Cheese!" " [Camera Clicks] - [Cheering]" "Hollister, Maurice, Colonel." "Division Chaplain." "Pierce, Captain." "Band vocalist."

"Private Weintraub will attempt to bake some unleavened bread on a rock... much in the same way as Private Moses... much in the same way that Moses did." "Would you all stand for the benediction, please?" "And now, may the Lord bless us all and keep us." " Amen." " [All] Amen." "Father Mulcahy, that has to be one of the finest services I've ever attended." "Thank you, sir." "Excellent service, Chaplain." "Excellent." "I really enjoyed it." "Sensational, Father!" "You're ready to play the Vatican." " Oh, my." " Aces, Father." "That was really neat." "Especially that scary part about going to hell." "Colonel, you're presence today was a first-rate inspiration." "I get chills in the presence of a real spiritual leader." "Thank you, Majors." "I, uh, gather you're regular churchgoers." " Oh, yes!" "It's a great place to kill an hour." " Oh, yes!" "We better scoot along." "There's no Sabbath for the second in command." "Nor for the head nurse." "God appreciates your responsibilities."

Truman." "You've got to guide them." "You've got to lead them!" "Oh, yes!" "Oh, yes!" "You've got to be the one!" "You've got to be the drum major... that leads this band... right into the valley of blessedness!" "You have to use that voice of yours, Father... as a cry into the wilderness." "Follow me!" "You, see." "Follow me!" "Lead the attack, Father, with a Bible in one hand... and a sword in the other!" "Hallelujah!"
