The basic white button down short-sleeve shirt and narrow solid black tie comprises his Fire Department Chief uniform. C.D.

One of the actors on the sidewalk is Kevin Nealon, who worked with Steve Martin on multiple occasions during the 1980s and 1990s on television's "Saturday Night Live". Martin was merely the guest-host during this run while Nealon was a cast regular for nine seasons.

Answer: "When he washes his face, he loses the bar of soap."

C.D.'s "20 something betters" is the riotously funny highlight of the movie. If you were in a first-run theater and saw the movie with a good-sized crowd, then you probably didn't hear half of the lines because everyone was laughing over the dialogue.
