Hawkeye Duck Amuck | Can't Help Myself | A Gardener Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan | Bacchus Don Quixote | The Seventh Seal | Luzon Bleeding-Heart Dove
i feel like ‘the joker is wild’ is such an important bj episode because it really shows everyone how fucking psychotic he can be. and i say that as someone who is nauseatingly infatuated with him.
like we already know he has some flaws. saw glimpses of his temper when that handyman made a pass at peg and then saw how reckless he can be in ‘wheelers an dealers’
but tjiw feels different to me. like one, that trapper complex really comes out hard, but i also think it shows how possessive he can be. like yes i think a big part of the prank was to prove to hawk and everyone else that he’s just as creative as trapper, if not more so.
but there’s also something about making sure hawk’s attention is on him. like bj gives him no choice but to constantly think of him, and tbh, it seems like he enjoys the control he has over hawk during that episode—the power.
even if it means his best friend is looking over his shoulder at every turn, unable to trust anyone or anything, making a fucking fool of himself. bj just sits back and watches hawk unravel and delights in it.
these people are already living in such a stressful environment, cortisol levels probably through the roof, and bj is over here having a laugh at his wide eyed, twitchy friend who is very clearly coming apart at the seams, and all to prove that, what, he’s better than trapper?
this sounds like i’m angry with him or something, but i’m more intrigued than anything. it’s for sure one of my fave episodes. super compelling and says a lot about him as a friend and person in general.
imo, the prank is pretty cruel, and it’s kind of astounding to me that no one steps in.
anyway i love it a lot and i love bj a lot and i think that he’s maybe not entirely right in the head <3
"A story is told that in 1806 a man goes to visit a doctor who is acclaimed for his ability to treat melancholia. “I can’t eat, I can’t sleep,” says the man. “I feel constantly miserable. Please help me, doctor.” “Laughter is the best medicine, my friend,” says the doctor. “Take yourself off to Covent Garden Theatre* where you will find The Great Grimaldi performing in Harlequin and Mother Goose; or the Golden Egg. It is exquisitely funny and will cure you of all your ills without any pills or potions from my cabinet.” The man looks at the doctor for a moment. “Ah,” he says. “That won’t help.” “Why not, sir?” The man shrugs. “I am Grimaldi.”
i think i'm starting to figure this out

my mom and i watched mash together (it was her idea, since she grew up with it) so she's put up with a lot of my incessant rambling about it and recently she pointed out something too insane not to share and too smart for me to take credit for
we were talking about gfa; bj's avoidance and how hawk tries to make him say goodbye, but bj dismisses him kind of coldly ("you're not dying"). and i could go on about that forever but she stopped me, paused for a second, and then said "maybe that's why hawkeye makes him smell the food. he's trying to force him to accept where they are."
bj refuses to eat anything after hawk makes him smell it, because he can't stand it if he can taste it. he can't say goodbye to hawkeye, or else he'll have to admit that their friendship exists because of korea; that he was in korea at all. in the winchester tapes, bj tells charles that peg's cooking is terrible, but he uses "internal propaganda" to convince himself it's edible. he can't stomach it otherwise
hawk is just as avoidant in some ways, but he admits himself that how he proves he's real, that he's Here, is by trying to get a reaction out of others. and bj wants the opposite, to ignore that he was ever here at all. so if hawk can force him to accept this, even just by smelling the awful powdered eggs, that's about the realest you can get. and if bj can just once admit that this is it, they're really leaving each other, maybe hawk will be able to accept it himself
'Stańczyk' by Jan Matejko, 1862 // Alan Alda as Hawkeye Pierce, Mash episode 'As You Were', 1974
look at this! i found a lady from the 1940s (Eda) who looks like she could have been Hawkeye's unnamed mother. the cheeks? the smile? or maybe it's the red cross over her head
look at that eyebrow and nose curve + shadow :)
fun fact, these people captured color footage of the attack on pearl harbor and that youtube video is where i got these images
the question that haunts me about hawkeye is how much of that is just how he really is and how much of that is stress behavior from being in one of the worst possible situations imaginable for a doctor to be in. like is that bird naturally that scraggly or is he so neurotic and stressed that he's ripping all his feathers out himself

Note: These song choice polls motivate me to actually finish one of the many fleeting edit ideas I have. It's a lot of time and effort to get a video exactly how I want, and knowing that someone already wants to see it is encouraging to me. Hopefully it's fun for you all, my MASH friends, to have a hand in choosing what I make :) Thanks for voting!
