Falling out of the tree


Hello all who might have a good memory regarding "Roxanne". It would be great if in the Quotes, someone can recite dialogue and lines where C.D. tries to explain away him falling out of the tree with his alien explanations. Weren't the aliens looking for mature older females? Anways, anyone can submit that quote?

I never saw this movie before today and i happened to catch that part, I had it in my head for hours!!!!!!! Oh man, I don't remember the whole thing, but when steve martin says
"they said they were looking to have sex with older women!!! they said they were doing this because... and i quote.. 'they really know what their doing'."

it doesn't get much better than that. that was such a funny movie.

Here's most of it:

"They brought me home. Bye. What time is it?"
"10:30, Dallas is on."
"Then it took no time. It didn't exist in time."
"What?"
"The spaceship."
"Spaceship....Did it have lights on it?"
"Lights! You never saw so many lights! It was like...Broadway! A creature came out of it. Had big suckers on his palms. Walked like this...took me over to Roxanne's house. Said they wanted to observe me."
"Oh, this is bulls**t, gals, we'll miss Dallas."
"They said they were looking for older women."
"Why?"
"Because they wanted to have sex with them. They wanted to start a colony of super beings who would have sex with older women because, and I quote, "They really know what they're doing..."
"Well, we do..."
"Oh, come on, girls. Do you really think there are creatures from outer space who want to have sex with older women?.......(pause)Let's go check it out!"

By the way, if you ever want to visit the Town of Nelson, it is an acutal town in British Columbia, north of Spokane, Wa. It has all the charm of the movie. I hope to live there someday. I've visited twice!

I know this is an old post but I'll go a head and give you my thoughts on it. He fell out of the tree to make it look like he has been dropped to the ground by aliens. I guess he thought if they saw him hit the ground as hard as he did that it would look like he was telling the truth. Because, really?? Why would anyone think that someone would do that on purpose to their own body.
