Jim Mulligan wrote this episode that is very messagy (about the plight of Amerasian children) but does have a cute baby and a not quite happy ending.  The scenes with Klinger and the baby are interesting, because I think he would become the father of an Amerasian child, after his marriage to a Korean woman.  (My memory is fuzzy on the details.)

Howard Platt, who's Major Ted Spector, is perhaps most recognizable as Dr. Phil Newman on The Bob Newhart Show.  William Bogert has his first of two M*A*S*H roles, as Roger Prescott.  Kellye Nakahara (Yamato) and Yuki Shimoda (this time Chung Ho Kim) return.  Alda directed.
