What was said

"I'm sorry, I can't understand you. Can you please speak English so I could understand what you're saying? And they were looking at each other and they just went like this and they looked at me like, is this did can he see me?"

Quitt says that in early years of his experiences he repeatedly saw tall ‘manted beings’ in his room while in an altered, paralysis-like state. He describes attempting to speak to them and believing they were surprised he could perceive them, after which he says he was ‘knocked back out’.
