 A week after Henry Blake s sudden death en route home, Major Frank Burns has now assumed control of the 4077th, attempting to bend the surgeons and staff to his will. But he can t even get Klinger out of his dresses. Hawkeye Pierce returns relaxed, and hung over, from R&R in Tokyo. He hits the showers when Radar enters and tells him of Trapper McIntyre receiving his walking papers and was currently en route to the airport in Kimpo. Hawkeye quickly sobers up and springs into action. Even though Major Burns denied him leave, Hawkeye goes anyway. He steals a Jeep and, with Radar in tow, races to Kimpo just in time to learn Trapper had left 10 minutes prior to their arrival. That s when they meet Trapper s replacement: a clean-cut, All American, family man, Captain B.J. Hunnicut. En route back to the 4077th, Hawkeye, Radar and B.J. stop to help a Korean family stranded in the mine field, as well as change a tire. They finally make it back, after stopping for a few drinks, and B.J. greets Frank for the first time by saying, "How goes it, ferret face?"
