* ITakeOffenceToThatLastOne: Parodied when Radar is reading a list of things the unit will not be getting for a while and Hawkeye and Trapper interrupt to enact this.

-->'''Henry:''' Radar, this is not a social function. It's probably the most serious meeting I've ever had to call. This is going to take all of my resources to guide us through these rocky waters. This'll be a real test of my [[DelusionsOfEloquence leadershipmanship]]. Soooo... ''[gulps down drink]'' No booze.

-->'''Henry:''' I'm talking to you from deep inside a real big empty.

--> '''Frank''': Who did that?
--> '''Henry''': ''The other side'', Frank.
--> '''Hawkeye''': We can't do everything ourselves.

--> '''Frank''': Where did you get that wood, soldier?
--> '''Igor''': Uh, my sister sent it to me, sir.
--> '''Frank''': Oh.

--> '''Father Mulcahy''': What am I saying?

--> '''Henry''': You're in very good voice today, Frank. Be sure to wind him up for the question period.

---> '''Margaret''': Down, Pierce.

---> '''Father Mulcahy''': This is quite a hotel you have here.
---> '''Hawkeye''': This is where [[GoshDangItToHeck the Ritz hit the fan]].
---> '''Father Mulcahy''': Where do I sleep?
---> '''Hawkeye''': On anything that doesn't move. And if you pray in your sleep, please try to mumble.

---> '''Klinger''': Hi. This is where I'm supposed to be tonight.
---> '''Hawkeye''': I'm not so sure. You either need an escort or you have to wear a necktie.
---> '''Klinger''': Where do I park it?
---> '''Trapper''': Do you like to read at night?
---> '''Klinger''': Yeah.
---> '''Trapper''': Take the cot next to Frank. He gives off a glow.

---> '''Hawkeye''': Oh lovely.
---> '''Trapper''': Henry, you're joking?
---> '''Henry''': Joking? Hehe he. I could be on the Olympic snoring team. I snored the siding half off of my house. I even got a fan letter once from the seismograph people at Fordham.
---> '''Hawkeye''': How are we supposed to sleep with that?!
---> '''Henry''': Well, if it gets too bad, just do what my wife does.
---> '''Hawkeye''': What's that?
---> '''Henry''': Hold me close.

---> '''Frank''': Speaking of noise, why don't you shut your yaps?
---> '''Hawkeye''': Martha, we're going to have to move. The people upstairs are impossible.

---> '''Hawkeye''': Hello hello hello.
---> '''Trapper''': What is it?
---> '''Hawkeye''': Mr. Minuteman has climbed down the Washington Monument long enough to do a little Valley Forge gorging.

--> '''Margaret''': Good night, girls.
--> '''Nurses''': Good night, Major.
--> '''Klinger''': Good night, Major.
--> '''Margaret''': '''KLINGER! OUT!'''

--> '''PA Announcer''': Attention, all personnel. Incoming wounded. Heavy casualties expected inside the hour. All personnel on full alert.
--> '''Frank''': They said there weren't going to be any casualties!
--> '''Hawkeye''': Frank, if I were you, I'd sue North Korea for every penny they've got.

--> '''Henry''': Radar, this is not a social function. It's probably the most serious meeting I've ever had to call. This is going to take all of my resources to guide us through these rocky waters. This'll be a real test of my leadershipmanship. So [''gulps down drink''] No booze.

--> '''Trapper''': And don't get in bed with that gun. [[BorrowedCatchPhrase That's an order!]]
--> '''Frank''': A captain can't give a major an order!
--> '''Hawkeye''': Then it's a threat.
--> '''Frank''': Well that's different. This was a great war until you guys showed up.

--> '''Trapper''': That hotplate has to go.
--> '''Margaret''': Who says so?
--> '''Hawkeye''': He does. He's in charge of heat.
--> '''Frank''': And just who are you?
--> '''Hawkeye''': I'm his helper. He doesn't like to heat alone.

--> '''Radar''': Fruit, vegetables, assorted food, fuel oil, blankets, bandages, linen replacements, toilet paper.
--> '''Trapper''': Uh-oh.
--> '''Hawkeye''': That hurts.
--> '''Radar''': No mail call, no electrical parts, no flares, no winter clothing, no playing cards, no shuttlecocks.
--> '''Trapper''': That does it.
--> '''Hawkeye''': How do they expect us to fight a war without shuttlecocks?
--> '''Trapper''': If they can fly wounded in here on choppers, why not supplies?!
--> '''Henry''': [[TemptingFate If Regimental's right,]] the fighting shifted to the north and we won't be getting any casualties.
--> '''Hawkeye''': [[TakeThat That's the same Regimental that said to Custer, "One last stand, then you can go home."]]

--> '''Henry''': All right, people. I'm gonna give it to you straight. Starting right here and now, we're all going to have to put our shoulders to the wheel, our noses to the grindstone. We've got to hunker down and pull together, all for one and one for all.
--> '''Trapper''': Welcome to the Henry Blake [[ClicheStorm Cliché Festival]].
--> '''Henry''': I happen to be serious, [=McIntyre=].
--> '''Hawkeye''': Then stop talking in samplers.

--> '''Trapper''': Shall we leave in the staples?
--> '''Hawkeye''': Damn the staples! This is war; everyone has to live dangerously.

--> '''Henry''': I'm talking to you from deep inside a real big empty.

--> '''Trapper''': By order of Captain [=McIntyre=], heating officer.

* ShoutOut: Hawkeye references [[Literature/ThreeLittlePigs Three Lit]][[WesternAnimation/TheThreeLittlePigs tle Pigs]] when Frank refuses him and Trapper entry into Margaret's tent.
--> '''Frank''': You can't come in!
--> '''Hawkeye''': Then we'll huff and puff, and we'll blow your nurse down.
* TheWarRoom: Henry's office becomes one of these when the colonel calls all of the senior surgical staff and Father Mulcahy to a meeting there.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** Henry nominates Radar as the housing officer.
---> '''Henry''': Now before this is over, we may have to double up or triple up to save heat. Radar will decide who sleeps with who.
---> '''Trapper''': Radar. I'd like to see you right after the meeting.
** Radar later informs Henry that they are now out of writing paper. The colonel asks him if people have been burning them for fuel as well. Radar stutters, eventually saying, "Uh, not right off."

* TheAce: All Hawkeye has to do is say "Ten-hut", and everybody is on their feet.

** Hawkeye and Trapper start cutting up magazines and catalogues to use as a toilet paper.

** Trapper starts cutting up magazines and catalogues to use as a fuel source.

As in RealLife, in a war when one faction overtakes a new piece of territory, it is very likely that that territory contained one of the other faction's supply routes, meaning that the military units on the other end of their line be barred of until their commanders either create a new one or take the territory back. To their horror, the people at MASH 4077 discover themselves in that situation. The camp is put on immediate red alert, with special duties handed out to all the officers to supervise the rationing of whatever supply there is left. As the crisis goes on, the 4077's resources are slowly whittled down...

* IncxrediblyLamePun: Hawkeye explains why he's helping Trapper investigate Margaret's tent.
