Added DiffLines:

A traveling USO troupe comes to the unit when one of them, Marina (Creator/GailEdwards), ends up being a patient, and the troupe ends up entertaining the unit.

!!Attention all personnel! Fast Freddie would like to use the following tropes for his act:
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Despite the fact he thinks Freddie's jokes are dumb, Charles admits he can't help but laugh at them.
* BreakTheHaughty: [[RunningGag Once again]], Charles - he's dismissive of Ellie's talents, until she reveals she went to Juilliard and can play all of the classical music that he loves. She just can't make a living at it, which is why she's in the USO troupe in the first place.
* FlorenceNightingaleEffect: Averted - while Marina does fall in love with Hawkeye after he operates on her, Hawkeye, usually TheCasanova, gently turns her down.
* HurricaneOfPuns: Freddie's preferred brand of comedy, and it turns out to be Klinger's brand of comedy as well.
* RupturedAppendix: Marina suffering from this is what kicks the plot of the episode into motion.
* ShoutOut: Freddie is in a hurry to leave the 4077th because he has the act booked on ''The Toast of the Town'', which was the original version of ''Series/TheEdSullivanShow''.
* StealthPun: When calling the 8063rd to help out Sarah, Father Mulcahy speaks with the company chaplain there, whom he calls by his first name, "[[Creator/CharlieChaplin Charlie]]."
* TheTag: Hawkeye and B.J. agree to let Klinger into the swamp on the condition he doesn't tell any more dumb jokes, which Klinger agrees to. Instead, he starts playing an accordion.
* TragicKeepsake: One of the plots involves Sarah, one of the troupe members, trying to get a pair of ballet shoes that belonged to her dead brother (killed in combat) and were a gift from her brother's fiancée.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: Between Col. Potter and Brandy. He ends up falling asleep in his tent before they do anything about it.
