Notes
After many episodes of his fellow team members knocking him out,and making him to fly on Airplanes,B.A. gets some payback on Hannibal,Face,and Murdock by having them all return Home by Boat.However,they will work off the trip by scrubbing the Boat,and painting exterior,and interior.Murdock becomes another of his persona Pasadena Murdock.
