* HarsherInHindsight: Klinger dreams he is a StrangerInAFamiliarLand, being all alone in his beloved Toledo and constantly reminded of the war. Come ''Series/AfterMASH'', we would learn that Klinger was ostracized by friends and family alike back home for marrying Soon-Lee. While he's not completely alone like in his dream, it's still a bitter pill to swallow for a guy who waited so long to go home.

* NightmareFuel: While the show didn't flinch from the horrors of war, ''this'' was the episode where the psychological toll on the main characters ramped that horror UpToEleven. Fans have reported sharing ''these same nightmares'' after watching this.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* SpecialEffectsFailure: The limbs that Hawkeye pull off of himself (as well as the ones floating in the river) in his nightmare are obviously mannequin limbs.
* UncannyValley: Not that it makes those mannequin limbs any less effective, as it works within the dream logic of the episode, and provides for some unsettlingly unrealistic visuals.

* BrokenBase: Opinions about this episode have always been very divided. Some see it as a daring experiment that demonstrated effectively the psychological horrors of war and the toll they were taking on the characters; others view it as pretentious and self-indulgent, straying too far from the show's comedic routes, and often use it as an example of the point where they believe Creator/AlanAlda received too much creative control over the show.
