EPISODE J-319 THE LONGJOHN FLAP - by Alan Alda It's winter at the 4077th. Everyone is freezing since the army has not sent them the proper clothing. The only warm one is Hawkeye since he is wearing a pair of longjohns. Trapper offers Hawkeye sixty dollars and his children, but he refuses. But when Trapper starts coughing and sneezing, Hawkeye gives him the longjohns. At poker the next night, Trapper loses the longjohns to Radar. In the mess tent, Hawkeye thinks he’ll be warmed up by Nurse Beddoes, but she sits next to Radar just to touch his longjohns. The cook makes Radar an extra leg of lamb for the longjohns. When Frank Burns finds the kitchen filthy and threatens to bust the cook to corporal, he gets the longjohns in exchange for leniency. Hot Lips tries to get Frank to say he'd leave his wife for her until she discovers his longjohns and tells him the least thing he could do is give them to her. Klinger, still trying to get his Section 8, threatens to shoot Frank unless he gives up the long underwear. Hot Lips has them so Klinger steals them from her. But, he gives them to Father Mulcahy for absolution for the theft. Mulcahy takes the longjohns to Col. Blake who is about to put them on when Hawkeye and Trapper come in to report the theft of their longjohns. Blake suddenly doubles over in pain and is rushed to the OR with appendicitis. After a successful surgery, Radar gives the longjohns to Hawkeye as evidence of Blake's gratitude. He is just warming up when Trapper begins coughing and sneezing.
