Hogan's latest scheme to destroy an ammunition train with dynamite is brought to a premature end by the inspector general, who decides that Klink should be transferred to Berlin.
Tropes:
- The Alleged Car: General von Platzen's staff car becomes this when Sergeant Carter secretly removed the car's engine.Klink: "Any damage to the motor?"Schultz: [looks inside] "...What motor?"
- Indy Ploy: Deconstructed. Colonel Hogan and his men's attempts to ruin Colonel Klink's reputation in front of General von Platzen without any planning and preparation works a little too well and nearly gets Klink court-martialed and transferred from Stalag 13 which is something that the Heroes are trying to avoid.
- Oh, Crap!: Hogan and Klink both go through this multiple times throughout the episode.
- Self-Punishment Over Failure: Invoked by General von Platzen after the Heroes' latest scheme to make Colonel Klink look bad:von Platzen: "Klink, do you consider yourself competent enough to undertake the task of arresting yourself?"Klink: "Arrest myself?"von Platzen: "Only until I get back to Berlin. Then I will have professionals arrest you."
- The Tooth Hurts: When the Heroes surreptitiously turn on a secret radio inside Barracks Two in front of General von Platzen and Colonel Klink, Klink declares that he will find the radio even "if Sergeant Schultz will have to take the barracks apart by tearing out each nail with his teeth," much to Schultz's horror.
