...Klinger wasn't petty and it paints everyone else in a poor light that they assumed he was slacking off to get back at Colonel Potter for nixing his pass to Tokyo. Hawkeye in particular appears foolish and incompetent by not noticing that Klinger is ill and then actually ordering him, not to mention trying to put him on report... ...The on-screen text at the end of the episode explaining developments in the understanding of primaquine is unique in the history of the series.

M*A*S*H afficionados may well remember the episode where Corporal Klinger develops a serious illness after being prescribed primaquine. Given Klinger's Lebanese ancestry, this is cinematically accurate, for G6PDD primarily affects those of Mediterranean and North African origin.
