Hawkeye fakes a mental break so he can get a break! (Pause for laughter) After a particularly grueling stint in the OR, Hawkeye tries to fool a psychiatrist so that he and Trapper can get some rest & relaxation in Tokyo. But will he find himself on a cushy vacation, or in a cushy cell? (These are the jokes people!) Vanessa and Ethan talk Season 1, Episode 7 "Bananas, Crackers and Nuts"
