M*A*S*H S01E22 - Major Fred C. Dobbs

Episode Overview

As always, Frank's relentless verbal jabs get under Ginger's skin, prompting Hawkeye to cast Frank's arm while he sleeps. When Frank announces his intention to transfer over a broadcast meant for Margaret, she also decides to leave. Consequently, Colonel Blake assigns Hawkeye and Trapper to handle double post-op duty until replacements for Majors Burns and Houlihan can be found. Desperate to keep their favorite targets around and avoid the grueling extra shifts, Hawkeye and Trapper concoct a plan. That night, they feign discovery of gold, making sure Frank overhears. Convinced he's stumbled upon riches himself, Frank retracts his transfer request, only to be duped when he finds a gilded jeep among the supposed treasure.
