Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Hawkeye and BJ have just returned from a fun-filled few days of R & R in Tokyo. What gift do they generously bestow upon their Swampmate Charles?

Answer: A sumo wrestler's hair

Hawkeye informs Charles that he and BJ have purchased a gift for him in Tokyo. Charles claims that, whatever it is, he neither wants it or needs it. Hawkeye retorts, 'Wrong! You don't have it and you desperately need it!' Naturally, Hawkeye is referring to Charles's unfortunate bald spot.
2. Upon their return to the Swamp, Hawkeye and BJ notice a radical change. Things are clean! Hawkeye complains that which of his 'pets' are dead?

Answer: Fleas

Charles has had things tidied up a bit while his bunkmates have been gallivanting about in Tokyo. Hawkeye, in particular, seems to take excessive pride in the fact that his living quarters are unusually squalid.
3. Charles's new 'house boy', as he calls him, is named Kwong Yong. Which of these multiple-episode guest stars takes on the role of Kwong Yong in this episode?

Answer: Sab Shimono

Sab Shimono showed up for two episodes of 'M*A*S*H', this one and a season eight episode called 'Back Pay', where he plays one of three Korean doctors who help fix Charles's back. Shimono has also shown up in movies such as 'Waterworld', 'Gung Ho' and 'Blind Date'.
4. This episode turns out to be another in a long line of 'Dear ______' episodes, where a person writes 'home' about their experience at the 4077th. In this case, however, the letter is going to the enemy! In Kwong Yong's letter to his 'comrades', he describes himself as a 'grinning lackey' to Charles, who is described as which of the following?

Answer: Capitalist fool

Of course, we are benefitting from the English translation of Kwong Yong's letter, but the sentiment is the same. Charles is paying Kwong Yong 'one dollar an hour, once a day'. Later, when Kwong Yong announces that he is leaving, Charles attempts to increase the former's pay, but to no effect. He doesn't want Charles's money, just information.
5. During a poker game, Charles is visited by Kwong Yong, who brings him a hot towel. Charles requests that Kwong Yong have a record from which classical composer ready for him to play when he returns to the Swamp?

Answer: Rachmaninoff

Concerned that Kwong Yong might not be able to identify Rachmaninoff by the spelling, Charles suggests simply to look for the 'big R, followed by all the little letters'.
6. Having a run of good luck, Hawkeye has been cleaning up on the poker table. In the final hand shown, what item does Hawkeye win from a certain supply sergeant named Cimoli?

Answer: A jeep

Hawkeye and Cimoli keep upping the bet against each other until Cimoli runs out of cash. He then offers Hawkeye a jeep to stay in the hand, and Hawkeye gladly accepts. Hawkeye wins with four nines over Cimoli's full house (jacks over sevens).
7. Fun and games aside, we still find ourselves at an army hospital, and army hospitals receive casualties. In this episode, the casualties all have terrible skin rashes, so bad that Colonel Potter consults a dermatologist named Dr. Nagle in Seoul. Does Dr. Nagle come to the 4077th to treat the patients?

Answer: No

Dr. Nagle is, in fact, particularly unhelpful. Not only does he not provide the doctors at the 4077th with any new ideas, he refuses to come pay a visit, claiming that he has to care for General Imbrie.
8. When Sergeant Cimoli is not able to pay up with the original item he promised Hawkeye, what ridiculous item does he send in its place?

Answer: A howitzer

Colonel Potter is none too happy about this 'blunderbuss' that has been delivered to his camp. He insists that Hawkeye and BJ get rid of it immediately. The two doctors perform a bit of surgery on the howitzer, removing its firing pin and pouring cement down its gun barrel.
9. Kwong Yong has decided to leave camp, having gotten the information for which he came. Before leaving, he joins the camp doctors in a last drink at the Officer's Club. What does he call this gathering in his letter to his comrades?

Answer: Top-secret policy meeting

Despite being the enemy, Kwong Yong is not such a bad guy. He helps the American patients with rashes by brewing up some 'oh dong mul', a local remedy for such ailments. In the end, he is loyal to his side, however, and he returns to North Korea despite Charles's entreaties to stay.
10. Kwong Yong engages in playful conversation with the drunken doctors of the 4077th. BJ notices that Kwong Yong's English has improved during this chat. To what does Kwong Yong attribute this marked improvement in his linguistic abilities?

Answer: The whiskey

After BJ's query, Colonel Potter adds, 'You talkin' real good now.' After claiming that it's the whiskey, Kwong Yong turns to Charles and says, 'Fill me up, Charlie!' Charles is extremely offended but eventually laments in a good-natured fashion.
