Today we cover Season 2, Episode #10 - The Sniper

34nd Episode Overall

Directed by  Jackie Cooper

Written by Richard M. Powell

Production code K410

Original air date November 17, 1973

 

Set during the Korean War in the 1950’s

Plot Summary: Hawkeye's picnic date with new nurse Lieutenant Marquette is interrupted by gunshots, which Hawkeye believes to be from Frank Burns, testing his new pistol, but as he and Margaret insist he has yet to fire a shot, the gunshots continue, confirming they are coming from a sniper. The four head back to the camp, where everyone but Radar and Blake, who are both in the showers shelters in the main hospital building, eventually managing to treat casualties which soon arrive. Help from headquarters is not immediately forthcoming, and Frank's attempts to be "a real man" (encouraged by Margaret) leads him and Hawkeye to ambush a figure in the mess tent, who turns out to be Radar, desperate for food. It's not until the following day that outside help arrives, in the form of a US army helicopter firing shots at the sniper. Hawkeye operates on the sniper, and reports to the Swampmen that the sniper targeted the camp in the belief that he was firing on MacArthur's headquarters.

Today we cover Season 2, Episode #8 - The Trial of Henry Blake
32nd Episode Overall
Directed by Don Weis
Written by McLean Stevenson, Larry Gelbart, Laurence Marks
Production code K408
Original air date November 3, 1973

Set during the Korean War in the 1950’s

Plot Summary: Lieutenant Colonel Henry Blake faces a disciplinary review after several complaints from Majors Burns and Houlihan. Among the issues at hand are the 4077th's Kentucky Derby Day, in which the doctors raced around the compound pushing nurses on gurneys; allowing Radar to sell wing-tip shoes tent-to-tent; and failing to stop Klinger's attempt to desert on a homemade hang glider (resembling "a big red bird with fuzzy pink feet"). However, the most serious charge is aiding and comforting the enemy in the form of giving supplies to Meg Cratty, a nurse who runs an orphanage in North Korea.Hawkeye and Trapper John attempt to go to the trial with evidence that will exonerate Henry, but Major Burns (in temporary command) confines them to quarters, guts the swamp and even strips Hawkeye and Trapper to their underwear. Trapper and Hawkeye escape and go to the courtroom, taking Nurse Cratty with them. She testifies that the North Koreans that Henry is accused of aiding were refugees and children at a civilian clinic.

When Burns and Houlihan arrive at the hearing, they cite Hawkeye and Trapper's escape (and technical status as AWOL) as proof of Blake's being unfit to command. Blake defends himself, saying he never set out to be a junior General MacArthur, but that he was only a doctor trying to run a hospital, and that his aid to Meg Cratty improved the life expectancy of the babies born in the area. He then tells the hearing panel to hang him for that if they wish. The head of the hearing board would like to drop the charges in light of the new evidence, but Frank refuses, so Hawkeye and Trapper use what they know best to change his mind: blackmail. Hawkeye jots down a letter threatening to tell Frank's wife about Hot Lips, and of course Frank and Hot Lips give in and drop the charges.

Hope you enjoy it,
Kenny, Meds & Al

SwampCast #5 - It’s All About Trivia

  MASHPodcastLogoSqSwamp.jpg


We normally release a "regular" episode reviewing an episode of MASH, unfortunately we will not be releasing one today (May 1st) instead we bring you a fun Swampcast.

A SwampCast is a non-regular show.. meaning we will not be reviewing an episode during this podcast. These SwampCasts will come out now and then and cover "cast" interview, or listener feedback or anything else that we want to share with the listeners that doesn't fit into our regular show review episodes.

Our 5th SwampCast is about Trivia. Each episode we ask our listeners a trivia question. On this Swampcast we Ask and Answer all trivia questions from Episodes 10 - 30. Every listener who sent in a correct answer will get their name put into a hat and we will reveal at the end of the podcast the 5, yes 5 lucky listeners who will win a MASH 4077 Podcast T-shirt.

Hope you enjoy Swampcast #5 and remember a new "regular" episode of MASH 4077 Podcast will be released on May 15th.

We hope you enjoy it,
Kenny, Meds, & Al
