scold Frank for not doing his job, but he refuses to listen - in fact, Frank himself goes borderline hysterical at having to operate on so many wounded soldiers all at once. He admits Burns was telling the truth on two points: it was October 11th, and they were in Korea, but then he gives the real story: Frank was doing an awful job prepping the patients, added to which he not sending them to the OR in the right order. Hawkeye then testifies in his own behalf, facetiously commenting on the bizarre fantasy Frank has concocted in his mind, though he seems genuinely sad realizing that that's how Frank actually sees the world. Hawkeye, unable to match the pace Frank is insisting on, grabs a hypo and knocks Frank out, screaming, "I'm taking over". He insists more and more wounded be brought in. Bombs are falling, and everyone is scared and panicking, except for Frank. He even does Father Mulcahy's job, saying a prayer (in Latin, no less), when Mulcahy collapses in exhaustion. He insists that during a long session in OR, he had to do nearly everything, operating on several patients at once while giving blood - directly from his arm - to a third. and Radar they all give some examples of Frank's insanity as commander - a ban on gambling, snap inspections, parades - he even has the entire camp do a practice bug-out, moving across the road, only to move back to the same spot the very next day.įrank testifies to the events that led to the "mutiny".
The charge has been leveled by Frank, who was in command while Potter was away. Colonel Carmichael is presiding over a hearing to determine whether or not Hawkeye is to face a court-martial for mutiny. This episode opens in a military courtroom.
