Jailbreak / Princess Linda quotes from The Emoji Movie (2017)

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

How are you doing that?!

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Now, we’re going to have to dance, our way out.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

"Sweet Motherboard!"

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Alex must be deleting the app.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

We gotta get outta here.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Gene, why'd you think I came back? It's because of you.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

You know, women are always coming up with stuff, that men are taking credit for.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Y' know… I think you’re pretty cool just the way you are.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Not now, mom!

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

We are out of Alex's pocket, emojis. This is not a buttdial. To your cubes.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Are we up and running?

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Good, 'cause we got incoming. Looks like it's gonna be Gene.

Jailbreak / Princess Linda

Hey, Gene, ready to try out your new cube? In 3, 2...

Gene [narrating]: The world we live in... It's so wondrous, mysterious, even... magical. No. N-n-no, not that world. I meant... this one - the smartphone. Each system and program and app are its own little planet of perfect technology, all providing services so necessary, so crucial, so unbelievably profound.

Look who just sent me a text.

Addie McCallister? Must be a mistake... or a joke... or a scam! Don't send him your Social Security number!

Dude, shh!! [pushes Travis aside] She's right there! [pulls out his phone to text]
Gene [narrating]: That's our user, Alex. And, like every freshman in high school, his whole life, everything, revolves around his phone.
[Cuts to Alex's classroom] Gene [narrating]: And as the pace of life gets faster and faster...

Phones down in 5!

Gene

...and attention spans get shorter and shorter and... You're probably not even listening to me right now. Who has the time to type out actual words? And that's where we come in, the most important invention in the history of communication...
[Zoom in on the texting app to Textopolis] Gene [narrating]: Emojis! That's my home, Textopolis. Here, each of us does one thing, and we have to nail it every time. The Christmas Tree just has to stand there all festive.

Merry Christmas!

It's still September, Tim!

Gene

The Princesses.

Princess

Oh, I am so ugly and hard!
Gene [narrating]: They just got to wear their crowns and keep their hair combed.

Princess

You guys, we are so pretty!
[Pans through showing more emojis doing their jobs] Gene [narrating]: Devil, Poop, Thumbs Up... They just show up, and they're good to go. But for the faces... the pressure is on. Crier always has to cry, even if he's just won the lottery.

Hooray, I'm a billionare! [sobs more]
Gene [narrating]: The Laughter is always laughing, even if he's just broken his arm.

I bone! [laughs more as he is brought to the ambulance]
[Shows Gene in his apartment, facing a mirror and trying out different neckties] Gene [narrating]: Now, me? I'm Gene Meh. So, I got to be totally over it all the time, you know, like, "Meh, who cares?" Which is not as easy as it sounds... [singing, flips between happy and unamused or "meh" faces] I got to be meh...I got to be meh... [comes out of his apartment, inhales and puts on his meh face as he sees a donut emoji] Mornin', Mrs. D. I see you have the little minis with you. [sees her baby donuts in her pram] Oh, they're so... cute...! [so entranced by their cuteness that he struggles and puts on a hysterical laughter face] THAT IS SO ADORABLE, I CAN'T TAKE IT!!![gives a blowing kiss face, they start screaming loudly as Mrs. D takes them away in anger]

Now I'll never get them to sleep! Stick to your one face, weirdo!

Ole! Ole! Oh no! Oh no!
Gene [narrating]: And it's hard to always act blase, when living in Textopolis is just so exciting. [British accent, to 3 monkey emojis] Hello, good simians. Those are some sharp attaches.

Yes, well, we have business to attend to.

Gene

What kind of business?

Monkey business.

Gene

I sounded British! Haha! [puts on meh face] Meh... [normal] Oh, that was really good! [meh face, giggling] Meh...meh-heh-heh-heh... [normal] That was a great...

What'cha doing there, mate?

Gene

Practicing! Today is my first day on the phone. Boy. I'm gonna be so "meh"! What are you gonna do?

Aw, me and the boys are gonna throw ourselves on the barbie! Here's my sauce now!

Gene

G'day, mate!

Gene

Hey! Konnichiwa!

Gene

Sorry, emoticons! [helps the :P emoticon up] I hate knocking over the elderly. Here, let me help, let me help. [helps up the >:I emoticon]

Ohh...my colon...!

Gene

Is that the time?

Hey! My eyes are up here, pal?!

Gene

Whoohoo!! Whoo!! Yeah! All right!

Gene

Whoo! [lands] Right on time. [breathes and puts on a meh face; other emojis run away until he approaches an elephant emoji while a hysterical laughter emoji cracks up]

So, last week, Alex sends me next to this guy! [he is standing next to a gas emoji]

Huh? Huh?

Haha, that kid! Where does he get this stuff?!? [keeps laughing]

Why are you laughing, freak?! [keeps laughing]
[Gene stops laughing and he frowns sadly as he heads for the doors] Gene [narrating]: Now, unlike me, my parents are total pros.

Mel

Gene, please tell me you weren't laughing just now... In public?

Gene

Uh...

Oh, he was. I remember.

Mel

Let's go somewhere more private.

Mel

Let's try this one.

Jailbreak and Hi-5

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!

Gene

Jailbreak, hello? Hello, Jailbreak?

Jailbreak

Oh. Uh, sorry.

YouTube?

Hi-5

OMG, this turned it on! [Jailbreak was annoyed] What? I’m a hand. It’s a big red button.

Gene

Whoa?

Jailbreak

No, no, no, no!

Gene

What’s happening?

Welcome to Just Dance! Follow my moves and get to move forward. Do the wrong moves and you get an “X.” Three strikes and you’re out.

Gene

"Out"? What does she mean by “out”?

Jailbreak

Digital death. Oh, thanks to you, Fingers. Now we're gonna have to dance our way out.

Hi-5

Which is all right with me, ‘cause But I can shake it like Michael. Or Michael’s glove, anyway.

Are you ready to daaaaance?

Jailbreak

This is bad, Gene. I can’t dance. I got no groove.

Gene

Come on. Everybody can dance.

Jailbreak

Not me, okay? I’m really stiff. See? I don’t understand.

Gene

Okay, stop. Stop.

Hi-5

She has to stop.

Gene

I see now what you are saying, just follow her moves.

Ready to dance in three...

Jailbreak

This I can’t do.

...two...

Jailbreak

Dude?

Hi-5

Oh, just shut up and...

Dance!

Hi-5

I guess someone likes you!

Gene

What are you talking about?

Hi-5

Well, she gave me just one peace sign. She gave me just one finger, and I knew she was in love with me.

Jailbreak

Let's go!

Hi-5

Ugh, I'm never eating another piece of candy ever again. [pukes a candy corn out of his mouth]

Gene

Hi-5, don't do it. [pause] Don't you do it, it's already been in there once. [pause] Don't do it. [Hi-5 eats the candy corn anyway] Wow...

Jailbreak

Move it!

Hi-5

Are my fingers getting fat? I’ll tell you what, this bandage wasn’t so tight before.

Gene

Jailbreak! Help me! Where am I?

Candy Crush.

Gene

What are we gonna do?

Jailbreak

Stay very still. Don’t worry. We've got your back. Right, Hi-5? [notices Hi-5 eating candy]

Hi-5

Ow!

Jailbreak

Hey, Fingers! You wanna focus?

Hi-5

For your information, I happen to have a sugar addiction, and it’s a very serious...

Jailbreak

Listen, Finger Head! We have to get Gene out of the game without blowing him up.

Gene

I don’t want to blow up.

Jailbreak

We have to match up the candies, so that Gene will drop to the bottom. And we can't match him with any yellows or else...
