Winchester, [[EveryoneHasStandards watching with increasing horror over what was just meant to be his harmless pranks on all of them escalating into people actually being hurt, pleads with BJ to stop and confesses that it was all his fault.]] [[Spoiler:That's when the three drop the charade and declare they were acting -- it was THEIR prank back on him as revenge for his manipulations.]]

After Margaret pulls a practical joke on Hawkeye and B.J., Charles manipulates them into a full-blown prank war. The camp is visited by heroic chopper pilot Captain Toby Hill and his dummy "Little Mac," whom he uses as a counterweight when he needs to pick up a single patient. Father Mulcahy is passed over for a promotion.

* GoneSwimmingClothesStolen: As part of the prank war, Margaret steals Hawkeye and B.J.'s clothes while they're in the showers.
-->'''Hawkeye''': You're gonna look awfully silly running home to get my clothes.
* PassedOverPromotion: Father Mulcahy is obviously disappointed about it but tries to brush it off as nothing.
* PlayingBothSides: Charles does this in the prank war. Eventually, Hawkeye, B.J., and Margaret get wise to it and pull a prank on ''him''.
* PieInTheFace: Margaret throws a pie at Hawkeye and B.J., but it hits Father Mulcahy instead.
