1!! The Film
2* On learning what the traffic signals mean. "Red means stop. Green means go. Yellow means go very fast."
3* In a MoodWhiplash, Jenny begins to cry over Scott's death and says "shit" upon doing so.
4-->'''Starman''': Define "shit".
5-->'''Jenny''': Don't say that, it's not a nice word.
6* And then Starman repeats it to the waitress like a toddler who has just heard his first curse word.
7-->'''Jenny''': Don't mind him, he's just learning to speak English.
8-->'''Waitress''': Well, he's got a hell of a start on it.
9* The starman's attempt to smoke a cigarette.
10* Starman's reaction to dessert. His face scrunches in absolute ecstasy (ooh, sugar!) and it almost in tears with how it tastes.
11** This leads to a nice moment later in the film when Jenny is describing how wonderful a honeymoon can be; after thinking a bit on how to put it so Starman will understand, she says it's "better than Dutch apple pie." Starman nods immediately, understanding without any problem at all.
