Just before an explosion, Klinger shoves Charles aside and saves his life. Charles, who is incredibly condescending to the Corporal, feels indebted to him. Of course, Klinger now owns him, having him bring tea, food, read stories, and do his work. During the said explosion, B.J. took a fall and badly injured his wrist. Being the big macho guy he is (even he gets sickening from time to time) he refuses to let anyone look at it. Potter is concerned, so when he brings in a substitute surgeon, he chooses a specialist in injuries to the hand or arm. He is an older man. Since Hawkeye thinks he knows everything, he gets confrontational. The surgeon tries to do his job but Pierce can't keep his mouth shut. The character of Hawkeye has such disdain for arrogance when he is one of the most arrogant characters in all of television drama. After a while, it is sickening. Of course, the arm isn't healing.

Personally I loved the Klinger/Winchester part, but I was never more frustrated with the Hawkeye/BJ area.
Just like anyone you would feel indebted to a degree for someone helping you out in a time of need, there are certain people in life that will exploit that emotion for their own benefit. Loved Winchesters cutting the ties moment with Klinger at the end lol. Perfect!
Hawkeye was a jumped up egomaniac in this episode. BJ was a dull witted moron also! Neither Hawkeye nor BJ we're thinking of their patients or they're duty as doctors, it was pure ego soup! The specialist they brought in sure had a big head, however that was only because he knew he was the best man for the job!
They should thank that the man was a professional or else he'd have purposely botched BJs operation and thumped Hawkeye's smug superior face while storming out of the OR!

Klinger owns Winchester

In this episode Klinger exploits the fact that he valiantly saved Winchester's life, and Winchester loses his temper as he doesn't liked to be owned by anyone, let alone Klinger. For a while, Winchester is Klinger's servant, but by the end you know it can't last forever.
One serious plot is the fact that BJ could lose the use of his arm, and Captain Traeger's experience, and arrogance which gets up the wrong side of Hawkeye.
