(07x03) 150 - Lil

The A-story of this episode seems to show just how close Radar has actually grown towards Potter... maybe even moreso than Henry: in contrast to "Henry in Love" (2x16), Radar was absolutely outraged at the mere idea of Potter possibly even thinking about cheating on Mildred, whereas he kind of looked the other way with Henry's affairs with both Leslie Scorch and Nancy Sue Parker (though over the latter, Radar DID patch through a call to Lorraine to bring her and Henry back together), but over Potter and Lil, Radar was rather passive aggressive at trying to break the two of them up, even going so far as to secretly let out the air in the jeep tires so they couldn't drive off for a picnic.
Further evidence that Radar's grown close to Potter is this exchange:
HAWKEYE: Radar, we're all a long way from home, maybe he just wants a little companionship.
RADAR: That's what he's got me for!
As for the B-story, it's a little on the silly side... I think perhaps Hawkeye went too far to the extreme just to find out what B.J. stands for... especially considering in a much episode, he didn't even care! I THINK it was "The More I See You" (4x23)
NURSE: What does B.J. stand for?
HAWKEYE: Practically anything.
Do you think B.J. is REALLY an amalgam of Bea Hunnicutt and Jay Hunnicutt, or do you think that's just another one of Beej's jokes.
Once again, I'm not sure how to rate this one, I think it may be between above average and average.
