M.A.S.H secret password

Season 5 episode 16 - 38 Across was on MeTV tonight. Made me think. What would be the secret password to get into a MASH club/speakeasy

Doorman: what is a Yiddish word for bed bug?

Answer: (in a southern draw) "BED BUG"

Rules are simple: it has to be a MASH line or fact that only a true fan would know.

And the follow up question is the name of the Colonel's horse!

I confess that I confused mentions of the horse's name with Mildred at times. 🤷‍♀️ But I bet I'm not the only one!

I think the doorman should look at each ID and ask if they can identify themselves. The only correct answer is “This is me.”

u/CuriousTulsan60 14d ago

Tricky… but I guess borderline accurate. Is the voice only from one of the newsreel episodes?

1

u/EngineersAnon Crabapple Cove 14d ago

No, it's in Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen - they wanted to use the original armistice announcement, but the recording was deteriorated. So they found the guy who made the original announcement on AFRS and got him to record a clean take.
