Listen, Maxwell. You are a sensitive guy and you have available to you one of the top 3 seduction lines in history with "it's gonna help me find my home planet". And you're refusing to use it. No guy is that sensitive. Use it.

— Roswell  ·  1999

Behind the line

What it means

Our interpretation.

The speaker pushes Maxwell to stop hesitating, arguing that being sensitive is no excuse for holding back a line about finding a home planet, which they rank among the greatest seduction lines ever. Playfully exasperated, they insist nobody is that sensitive and tell Maxwell to use it.
