Radar O'Reilly is feeling down as he does not believe that he is a "hot lover" and wants to try to become one so he can attract the various nurses of the 4077th. He relays his concerns to Hawkeye Pierce and B.J. Hunnicutt in The Swamp, and Hawkeye suggests that Radar take a trip to Seoul and try to find a woman there.
In each scene of the episode, the viewer hears the actual scene as well as the report that Radar is making. An enemy prisoner who is being treated in the OR grabs a scalpel and attacks a nurse, Lt. Erika Johnson ( Joan Van Ark ), and inadvertently splashes foreign matter into the wound of a patient of Trapper's before being subdued by Hawkeye .
Radar is dispatched back to the 4077th. Once there, Radar tells Hawkeye and Trapper what went down and that Henry is still facing one more serious charge: giving aid and comfort to the enemy, due to his assistance of an American nurse named Meg Cratty who operates a clinic within the North.
