Capt. Murrhardt

Painless is a dentist, and a dentist shouldn't read. That's his whole problem.

Cpl. Judson
[Sung for Painless]

Suicide is painless / it brings on many changes / and I can take or leave it / if I please

Ho-Jon

Hawkeye? Duke say you better haul ass home quick. We got new chest cutter in our tent.

I'm kind of partial to blonde myself.

I knew it! I knew you had a-- had an attraction for Hot Lips Houlihan

Here! Here!

Go to hell, Captain Pierce. You know I damn near puke every time I look at her. Besides she's-- I'll bet she's not a real blonde.

How dare you say that about an officer of the United States Army!

I'll not only say it, but I'll back it with 20 bucks, How's that?

You have yourself a bet, sir. [To Trapper John] You're my witness.

I'll be your witness, but who's gonna be the poor schmuck who finds out?

Well, listen, uh, where were you when you were drafted? I was just curious.

Back home. I told you before.

No, I mean, what were you doing? Were you, like, a resident, or on staff someplace?

Where?

Hospital.

Which hospital?

Back home.

[To Hawkeye]

Is there some reason I shouldn't know which hospital?

I don't know. I will ask. Is there some reason my friend should not know the name of the hospital?

[Trapper pops his gum and shrugs.]

There doesn't appear to be any reason. I've seen you somewhere before. I don't know your name, stranger, but your face is familiar. Have you always had that mustache?

[Trapper John smirks and shakes his head.]

Hmm.

Duke, did I ever tell you how Androscoggin College beat Dartmouth in a raging blizzard, six to nothing, because I intercepted a pass?

Yeah, you told me.

They had this great passer, see? [Trapper John shrugs, smiling] And we held them nothing-nothing till the last 20 seconds, and then snow and all, he let one go. And it went sailing... boom!

Lucky your mouth wasn't open, it would have got stuck in your throat.

Oh, baby! How are you, Trapper John McIntyre?

I thought you'd never remember.

[About Hawkeye]

I wonder how such a degenerated person ever reached a position of authority in the Army Medical Corps.

Father Mulcahy

He was drafted.

Me Lay Marston

Who are you?

I'm Dr. Jekyll, actually. This is my friend, Mr. Hyde.
[Trapper John grunts]

Look, mother, I want to go to work in one hour. We are the Pros from Dover and we figure to crack this kid's chest and get out to golf course before it gets dark. So you go find the gas-passer and you have him pre-medicate this patient. Then bring me the latest pictures on him. The ones we saw must be 48 hours old by now. Then call the kitchen and have them rustle us up some lunch. Ham and eggs will all right. Steak would be even better. And then give me at least ONE nurse who knows how to work in close without getting her tits in my way.

Capt. Peterson
[Outraged]

Oh! [She turns to leave and bumps into Nurse] Oh! Fool! [She stomps off]

Nurse

How do you want your steak cooked?
