[edit] Synopsis

An elderly couple realize they haven't much time, so they decide to trade their bodies in for new, young ones. To their dismay, the swap will cost $10,000 for both, and they have only half that. Finally, the old man goes ahead and has himself changed. In the end, they realize they can't wait for each other and would rather be old together. He opts for the return clause.
