"Dreams" is an episode from the television series ''M *A *S *H''. It was the 22nd episode of the eighth season, broadcast and aired on February 18, 1980 and repeated September 1, 1980. It was directed by Alan Alda. "Dreams" was conceived by James Jay Rubinfier and co-written with Alan Alda. The episode received two prestigious writing honors: The Humanitas Prize (1980), and a Writers' Guild of America nomination for episodic television writing in the dramatic category, which was a first as M *A *S *H received WGA nominations in both comedy and drama categories that same year. The laugh track is omitted for this episode. Alda credits "Dreams" as one of his favorite ''M *A *S *H'' episodes. == Overview == In this surreal episode, the group performs 33 hours of surgery without sleep. A motor pool administrator refuses to send ambulances to the camp to evacuate patients (who are piling up rapidly) because they might be damaged by gunfire. In effect, they are forced to build bunks in Post-Op and move the wounded soldiers into every available space, including Klinger's office (thereby forcing him to sleep in the supply room.) The show centers on the dreams of the cast as they attempt to catch at least a little slumber in the midst of the crisis. Unfortunately, even their dreams offer no sanctuary from the war, as everyone eventually finds himself or herself glad to be awake. After the marathon of wounded ends and the unit faces a respite from the constant surgery, a few consider getting some long-deserved rest. However, Winchester's glibly-delivered response ("...to sleep, perchance to dream..." from Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 1) causes them to reconsider sleep in favor of coffee to stay awake, and stay away from the dreams. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dreams (M*A*S*H)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
