Klinger, what civil war hero said "Damn the torpedoes! Full steam ahead." And please try to answer with less than the seven basic ballet movements.

I'm thinking. I'm thinking. Tugarraf!

That's "Farragut." He said it backwards.

Aha! True or false: You can reach the high notes of the "Star-Spangled Banner" by standing on your toes.

Gee Dad, talkies.

Who's Walter?

Oh, that's my given name.

Give it back.

[A cackling Frank comes out of Colonel Potter's office, only to miss having a chair thrown at him.]

Margaret (infuriated): War horse?! Army Mule?!

Margaret!

Stuff it!!!

[Frank is desperately trying to call his wife, but Radar is busy connecting another call in Ohio]

Don't give me any of your snottiness, I am not that old dimwit you work for!

The Ohio call is mine, Major.

Margaret!

Stuff it!!!

(She storms out of the office, and Frank follows her!)

I had to say what I did, try to understand!

Leave me alone, you chinless chipmunk!

Margaret, please!

Remove your hand or I'll zap you with my knee!

Margaret! (They walk nonchalantly past some enlisted men) I had to lie, the stocks and the house are in her name!

Oh, Margaret, dear. Let me bring over my can of Sterno, we can have some hot toddies and you can put on your new nightie!

(throwing her negligee at him) YOU put on my new nightie!

[Looking longingly at the negligee as BJ and Hawkeye walk by with golf clubs] Forty five dollars!

Sold.

Are alterations included?

(annoyed) Aw, go practice your putts!

Well, bless my soul. I won.

A little inside information, Father?

No, I just happen to know a bit more about conception!

EEveryone

Hear Hear!

(wearing Margaret's old negligee, carrying a tray of beer) Here we are, reinforcements, Colonel Grandpa!

Klinger, where'd you get that negligee?

I found it in the garbage.

War is such a waste!

Klinger, it's you!
