* {{Irony}}: This is essentially the first episode to use the "serious A/B plot and silly B/A plot" format associated with the "Dramatic ''M*A*S*H''" era of season 4 onwards, and the serious plotline is centered on Trapper, who went home between seasons 3 and 4.

* HarsherInHindsight: Henry Blake has a story arc where his wife is about to have a baby back home in Bloomington and he and Radar struggle with communications to get in touch with Bloomington General Hospital. The arc is resolved when the news is received that Mrs. Blake delivered a healthy baby boy, a son that sadly will never know his father.
** Kaplan, the camp's dentist, is afraid of all the things that could go wrong with his trip home to the States, which is played for comedy. It's not as laughable when you consider Henry's departure.
* HilariousInHindsight: Radar says the only way he'd be able to help deliver a baby is with his eyes shut.
