* BewareTheNiceOnes: Radar is viewed by both the MASHers and the audience alike as a sweet, unassuming man who is kind to practically everyone. Yet, he was brave enough to set up a contest against the Marines (which not only boosted their morale but made the Marines respect him), and completely ''let Charles have it'' when he learns that the doctor drugged Daisy to help her win the race.

!!Attention, all personnel! While under the influence of drugs, Major Winchester did commit the following tropes:
* CompressedVice: Charles descends into addiction and recovers from it all within the space of the episode, and it's never mentioned again.
* DrugsAreBad: The episode hammers home what can happen when you get hooked on pills.
* HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs: Charles thinks he has this, being so alert that he writes a 27-page medical research paper. Subverted in that, as Hawkeye puts it, it's "one long sentence".
* InterserviceRivalry: Takes the form of the mouse race between the Marines and the Army.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Hawkeye is squeamish around mice.
