Operation Friendship

Just before an explosion, Klinger shoves Charles aside and saves his life. Charles, who is incredibly condescending to the Corporal, feels indebted to him. Of course, Klinger now owns him, having him bring tea, food, read stories, and do his work. During the said explosion, B.J. took a fall and badly injured his wrist. Being the big macho guy he is (even he gets sickening from time to time) he refuses to let anyone look at it. Potter is concerned, so when he brings in a substitute surgeon, he chooses a specialist in injuries to the hand or arm. He is an older man. Since Hawkeye thinks he knows everything, he gets confrontational. The surgeon tries to do his job but Pierce can't keep his mouth shut. The character of Hawkeye has such disdain for arrogance when he is one of the most arrogant characters in all of television drama. After a while, it is sickening. Of course, the arm isn't healing.
