Your Source For MASH 4077th Collectibles!

Captain Phillip Hildebrand, an Army psychiatrist, is sent to investigate the 4077th for possible mental breakdowns. He informs Col. Blake that his presence should be kept a secret. As Blake tells Hildebrand what a great bunch of people he has, Klinger enters wearing an evening gown with a corsage strapped to his wrist. Blake tries to explain that Klinger is bucking for a discharge, but Hildebrand is not so sure. Later that night Radar awakens Hawkeye and Trapper and brings them to meet with Blake in the shower tent. Blake explains Hildebrand's mission and asks them to behave. If they don't they could be transferred to a worse outfit. Then Blake visits Hot Lips in her tent where he finds Major Frank Burns. While Radar reports to Blake that he has hidden all of the golf dubs and burned Klinger’s bras. Hildebrand, nearby, overhears every word. The next morning, Hildebrand isn't fooled as Hawkeye, Trapper, Hot Lips and Frank put on a show of affection for each other. He does his own investigation and concludes to Blake that the behavior of Trapper, Hawkeye and Hot Lips is childish and unprofessional. As each protests, Radar informs them of incoming wounded. Hildebrand watches them do their work with skill and dedication in the O.R. He decides they are impossible people doing impossible work in an impossible place and salutes them with a martini in the Swamp.
