Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hello there.

My muse has been crying out for a M*A*S*H* trivia game thread somewhere,
and this is the only place I know that would appreciate it.

I've been a fan of trivia threads of various types, and thus I'm making the
following groundrules for how the thread works. (The guild rules still apply
as always, of course.)

A) No cheating. No looking up the answer anywhere, no replaying the
episode if you have it recorded in any format, of any kind.
The exception is if it's aired on television during the little window the
question's posted, that's fair and "the whims of fate." You can watch THAT
and then answer the question.
If you look up the answer, you must step aside in answering it, and can't
add more clues to the question (unless the questioner has vanished and
can't add any if they want to.)

B) Be fair to everyone. If you know ALL the answers, let the others get a
chance to answer some of them. I'd recommend a 48-hour headstart to
let the regulars get a chance. Feel free to pm the questioner the answer
if you MUST signal you know it-this won't deprive the others of a chance
to answer as well.

C) Two questions at a time. Please only have one question per post,
with 2 questions up, not 3 or more. Otherwise, it gets confusing.

D) Quote the question in your answer. This makes it easy to follow the
thread and indicate if the answer is correct.

E) Questions should be "fair". By that, I'm defining "fair" as
"a normal human who watched the episode could reasonably expect to be
able to answer the question if he was asked it right after seeing it."
Questions only on the tv show, please, and only on what was aired.

F) Those answering a question-once it's confirmed correct-get first chance
to post the next question. Or, they can say they're passing it to me, and I
will post another question.

I think that's everything.
(Yes, these are all based on experience.)

Ok, first 2 questions coming up...

Colonel Henry Blake had a fancy desk shipped to him at the camp.
What wood was the desk made of?

Yes.
Except Hawkeye made the retort. Sidney always acted the professional
around Flagg, which made Flagg just look worse.

Thanks for answering. My muse has been feeling neglected. xd

Oh Jeez... I don't know that one! I'm in shock!

I have one for you though-
What is the name of the younger woman with whom Henry was having an affair (one particular episode, not the movie).

I know she had been a cheerleader, but I don't remember her name.

Aw, you didn't leave me the reply....
Correct answer, but you knew that.

Ok, I'll clear out this question.

"Mary had a little lamb, stop.
My dog has fleas, stop.
Mairzy doats and dozey doats
and I'll be home for Christmas."
"Sign it 'Your loving son,
Queen Victoria.'"

That was Colonel Flagg's message.

When Captain Stone saw it, his comment to Hawkeye was
"He knows I'm here."
"How do you know that?"
"I'm Mary."
"Well, I hate to tell you this, Mary, but your dog has fleas."

NEW question!

This is a 2-parter.

The 4077 once sent to the United States for a food order from a
restaurant.
A) What was the name of the restaurant?
B) What was the food they ordered?
C) What was their answer to WHY they needed the food?
