It's nearing lunchtime one particular day at the 4077th and Captain 'Hawkeye' Pierce is starting to get restless. The camp has served a choice of either liver or fish for eleven days and Hawkeye remarks to Captain 'Trapper' John MacIntyre that he's going to go crazy if it happens again.

As they reach the front of the line Trapper reminds Hawkeye to stay in control while awaiting, Private Igor Starvinsky's revealing of his entree choices causes Hawkeye to snap. During the exchange he remarks; "I’ve eaten a river of liver and an ocean of fish. I’ve eaten so much fish, I’m about to grow gills. I’ve eaten so much liver, the only way I can make love is if I’m smothered in bacon & onions." Hawkeye then decides to fling the contents of his tray across the mess tent (which hits Corporals 'Radar' O'Reilly and Maxwell Klinger, who isn't happy about it) and then incites everyone in the mess tent to chant "we want something else" toward the kitchen staff.

Lieutenant Colonel Henry Blake is not happy about Hawkeye's shenanigans and asks him what he was thinking (to which Hawkeye responds "I broke under the pressure, warden&quot . However, he does agree that things have gotten a little repetitive in the mess tent and has taken measures to fix the problem, including ordering several turkeys to be shipped to the camp. Unfortunately, due to a mixup at I-Corps, Radar reveals that in their place the 4077th was sent 5,000 athletic supporters.

During the course of the conversation Hawkeye is looking at the skeleton hanging in Lt. Col. Blake's office and suddenly it hits him as to what he wants...barbecued spareribs. He then remembers a place in Chicago near the Dearborn Street train station called "Adam's Ribs"

According to data from the Aviation Safety Network, an independent organization based in the Netherlands, there were 23 fatal airliner accidents in 2012, well below the average in recent years.

In terms of the total number of accidents for airliners, last year was the lowest since the end of World War II. The 23 accidents include air cargo aircraft, an airplane used to transport sky divers and a demonstration airplane from Russia. There were just 11 fatal accidents involving airliners, again the lowest number since 1945. The 10-year average for total airliner crashes is 34, and for passenger carrying aircraft, the average is 16.

That continues a downward trend we’ve seen since 1997. Last year there was roughly one fatal airliner crash for every 2.5 million flights. And there has not been a fatal passenger airliner crash in the United States since 2009 when Colgan Airlines Flight 3407 crashed near Buffalo, New York.
