Let me get you to your tent.
I'd better warn you, Major, I get mighty crotchety when I'm battling a bug. And I make one ornery patient.
Well, I make one ornery nurse! Take it easy.
(Enter: Winchester)
Uh-- Colonel isn't it a bit early in the day to be, um-- how shall I put it-- bagged?
It's not booze that's got me in this shape, Winchester, it's mumps.
(laughs) I-- Forgive me, Colonel. It's just that it's a bit silly to find a childhood malady - afflicting a man of your advanced years.
Step aside, Major.
What's next for you, Colonel? Unsightly teenage blemishes?
Ah, between you and the mumps, Winchester, I'd prefer the mumps. At least I know they're going to go away.
