(talking about Frank)
BBJ
Can't you do something?
Like sit him down and have a talk with him?
No, like stand him up and have him shot.
Don't be absurd. There'd be an inquiry.
“The Colonel's Horse” · Season 5
In this episode: Hawkeye Pierce (3), BJ Hunnicutt (3), Colonel Potter (2), Frank Marion Burns (1), Radar O'Reilly (1), Margaret Houlihan (1), Father Mulcahy (1)
BJ (regarding Sophie's condition): Too much dry grass, not enough water; she's got colic.
Ooh, that's serious!
Colic?
BBJ
He says it could kill her. Her intestines are blocked; we need to keep her on her feet so they don't twist. And...we gotta clean her out. Lots and lots of warm water.
...I think I'll stroll on up to the front and see how the shooting's going.
(a hose needs to be connected to the water tower)
Hook this to the tap up there.
BBJ
It looks awful high.
Would you rather have this end?
BBJ
(climbing) It's not so high.
Upsy-daisy.
BBJ
I love you Daddy.
(Hawkeye and BJ are removing Margaret's appendix.)
(Barging into the OR) Why wasn't I called?!
(Barking at Frank) Mask!
(angered) Well, I should be doing this surgery! I know Major Houlihan's appendix better than any of you guys!
Burns, she asked for Pierce.
I don't believe it!
(quietly to Potter) Great deal of conflict here.
(quietly to Mulcahy) You said it, brother... uh, Father. (aloud, to Frank) Burns, she doesn't want you here!
I'm not leaving until I hear it from her own lips!
(BJ, about to put the anesthetic mask over Margaret's face, pauses)
Listen to these lips, Frank. Get out!
She's delirious.
(almost screaming) OUT!
(Potter pushes Frank out of the OR)
(angrily to Margaret) I hope you have a great big scar!
