Old Man : [lying in the next hospital bed] You do something to your hand?
Salvadore Ross : No. I came here for a good night's sleep. The Waldorf was gettin' on my nerves.
Old Man : I bet it hurts.
Salvadore Ross : Yeah, it hurts.
Old Man : You're still lucky, though.
Salvadore Ross : My luck wins prizes.
Old Man : [coughing] No, I mean, I've got this awful congestion in my chest.
Salvadore Ross : Are you gripin' about a cold?
Old Man : At your age, it might just be a cold. But at mine, it could easily turn into pneumonia. You know, young man, you could break both legs and an elbow, and you'd still be swimming inside of a month.
Salvadore Ross : Yeah? Well, if you think this is so great, well, let's swap. You take my busted hand, and I'll take your lousy cold.
Old Man : [laughs and then begins to cough again] It's a deal.
