Helicopter Ride

Morris and his wife Esther went to the state fair every year and every year Morris would say, "Esther, I'd like to ride in the helicopter."
Esther always replied, "I know Morris, but the helicopter ride is $50. And 50 dollars is 50 dollars."
Some years later Morris and Esther went to the fair and Morris said, "Esther, I'm 85 years old. If I don't do that helicopter ride now, I might never get the chance."
Esther replied, "Morris, that helicopter ride is $50 and 50 dollars is 50 dollars."
The pilot overheard them and said, "Folks. I'll make you a deal. I'll take you both up for a ride. If you don't say a word up there, I won't charge you a penny! But if you say anything, it's 50 dollars."
They both agreed and up they went. The pilot did every stunt in the book but not a word was said. When they landed, the pilot turned to Morris and said, "I am so impressed you never said a word."
Morris replied, "I almost did when Esther fell out, but 50 dollers is 50 dollars"
