Well, I guess I will count this as the beginning of Phase Four, since, although Radar won't officially leave for another few weeks, things are getting set up for his departure, including Klinger taking on some of his office duties. The title has to do with the gang's maneuvers to keep Private Paul Conway (Ed Begley, Jr., who turned 30 the day before this aired) around as cook. Meanwhile, Potter gets an angry letter from Mildred, but Margaret helps explain what it's like for a woman to not see her man for a long time.
John Randolph, who I know best as Emily Hartley's father, plays Gen. Budd Haggerty. Jeff Maxwell (Straminsky) and Kellye Nakahara (Yamato) return. This is the first of seventeen M*A*S*H episodes written by Dennis Koenig, who did one for Three's Company.
