M*A*S*H: The Billfold Syndrome

This Levine & Isaacs story doesn't quite work.  I don't see why Hawkeye and BJ would be so bothered by Charles's silent treatment, and sending him a fake telegram promising a job feels extreme.  As for the other plot, while it's nice to see Sidney again, it feels like the hypnotism breakthrough happens too easily.

Roy Goldman (this time a Corpsman), Kellye Nakahara (Yamato), and Sal Viscusco (PA Announcer) return.  Alda directed.
