This Wilcox & Mumford story has Hawkeye psychomatically sick, sneezing violently, so it's time to call in Sidney, who in a short time discovers that Hawkeye has suppressed anger over a beloved older cousin pushing him out of a boat and then "rescuing" him when Hawk was seven.  This is very Season Niney, not bad but not really working either.  I liked hearing about Hawkeye's childhood but the cure here is too quick, and the illness is a bit contrived.

Kellye Nakahara (Yamato) and Dennis Troy (this time a Driver) return.  This is the first of three M*A*S*H episodes directed by Nell Cox.
