Quotes

My Stepmother Is an Alien

Edit
  • [Celeste consults with the alien council]
  • Celeste Martin: The subject says he will be unable to think about science unless he marries me.
  • Council Chief: Well, marry him.
  • Celeste Martin: But we don't know what "marry" is.
  • Council Chief: One moment.
  • [the second council member takes a book. He and the council chief leaf through it until they find the page about marriage]
  • Council Chief: Ah, yes. The Monchine Forty says marriage is this: he goes off to fight the Turks, and you put on a lock.
  • [Celeste is confused]
  • Second in Command: No, no, no.
  • [they leaf more pages]
  • Council Chief: Oh, yes, yes. Wrong century. Eh... marriage is this: you cook and clean and bring him martinis.
  • Second in Command: No, no!
  • Council Chief: Wrong again? Ridiculous...
  • [they leaf more pages]
  • Council Chief: Yes. Wrong decade. Too old-fashioned. Ah, here we are, yes. The modern marriage: there are no rules or responsibilities, but if he does something wrong, you can set him on fire while he sleeps and go on a talk show, where everyone will forgive you and love you. There is only one drawback: you will have to have more sex.
  • Celeste Martin: [excitedly] I'll do it!
  • [after Steve asks if she wants to have sex]
  • Celeste Martin: Sure. I just have to figure out what that is.
  • Alien leader: Earthmen will fall to their knees, betray their country and give away valuable real estate for a desirable woman.
  • Steven Mills: Would you mind if I kissed you?
  • Celeste Martin: Does it hurt?
  • Steven Mills: Not the way I do it.
  • Steven Mills: I think... I think...
  • Celeste Martin: What?
  • Steven Mills: Would I scare you... if I told you I love you?
  • Celeste Martin: Not unless you hit me at the same time.
  • Steven Mills: I'm serious.
  • Celeste Martin: So am I!
  • Jessie Mills: [looking at her Dad and Celeste through a window] I think they're gonna kiss!
  • Lexie, Jessie's Friend #1: Does he even know how?
  • Jessie Mills: I saw him do it once in 1983.
  • [watching a video of two people having sex]
  • Celeste Martin: That is the weirdest thing I've ever seen.
  • The Bag: That's why we gave it up 3,000 years ago.
  • Celeste Martin: This Debbie's a very busy girl...
  • [reporting to her father that her stepmother is more than she seems]
  • Jessie Mills: I saw her drink the battery juice from your Honda!
  • Lucas Budlong: Thinks he's cute, doesn't he?
  • Ron Mills: Yes, but I was mother's favorite!
  • Ron Mills: Oh, that was the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.
  • Ron Mills: [off his girlfriend's look] I mean, uh, ehh, second most beautiful... Third... A dog!
  • Celeste Martin: [after changing to new dress in Dr. Mills' car] Is this acceptable?
  • Steven Mills: Is the drool apparent?
  • [on Ron's braces]
  • Celeste Martin: Ooh, mouth jewelry!
  • Steven Mills: If you want my secrets, you'll eat my sandwich!
  • [after a long & strange make out, both somewhat out of breath]
  • Steven Mills: I've never felt anything like that before.
  • Celeste Martin: Do I now have to eat the chocolate from Pennsylvania?
  • Steven Mills: [laughs; looks slightly confused] What?
  • [as the Mills dog sniffs The Bag]
  • The Bag: Back off, Alpo Breath!
  • Celeste Martin: Oh yeah, I could do that.
  • Celeste Martin: Don't stop!
  • Steven Mills: What else do you do out there, break hearts? Here we go to warm places together.
  • Steven Mills: [to the family dog] Dave! How are you and your thousand fleas this morning?
  • The Bag: [as Dave, the dog, digs a hole in which to bury the bag] You're digging your own grave, Fido!
  • Ron Mills: BABY!
