That episode was full of them. It was also one of those rare moments when the show acknowledged one of Hawkeye's biggest flaws. How his incredible ability as a surgeon and the confidence he has also makes him incredibly self-centered. And not only did the audience get a good look at that with just 2 lines... Hawkeye even has to acknowledge it as well, a tough pill to swallow while trying to save a life.That man makes me cry at times. The real time episode "Life Time", he has a line that you can tell (for the character) hurt to say.
"(Capt. B.J. Hunnicut enters with the aortic graft removed from a soldier who had died just minutes before)
Hawkeye: (impatently) What took so long?
Capt. B.J. Hunnicut: The guy it was attached to was still using it."
