This job at Illustra is destroying your sense of humor. You gotta quit.
Roxie Shield I'm not the one who can't deal with reality.
Reality is very disappointing.

Scenes with Roxie Shield
9 scenes Roxie Shield Roxie Shield I think you should see a professional.
A professional? What do you mean, a hooker?
Roxie Shield No, I mean a psychiatrist.
I can't afford a psychiatrist.
Roxie Shield Then call one of those shrinks on the radio.
A radio shrink? They're only good for people with problems that fit between the commercials.
Roxie Shield You could've decided to tell me that you wanted to stand me up. Instead, you come here to me lying with this ridiculous story.
I'm not lying. I'm insane.
Armand
Roxie! Roxie, Roxie. You know what you need to do right now? You need to put him and this whole nasty affair out of your mind. Now, how is the best way to do that, huh? Huh? By having a night of distasteful sex with someone you care absolutely nothing about! And proudly, I would like to be that person.
Roxie Shield Fine, let's go to your place
Armand
Really?
Roxie Shield Drive fast before I have second thoughts!
Armand
Armand is the wind!
Roxie Shield [notices Jonathan with Emmy, suddenly surprised]
Jonathan, you're riding around town with a mannequin on the back of your motorcycle! What is wrong with this picture?!
[on seeing Emmy alive]
You know the mannequin that I made? Well, she's there! She came to life, and she knew who I was!
Roxie You could have decided to tell me that you wanted to stand me up. Instead, you come here to me lying with this ridiculous story!
No, I'm not lying, I'm insane.
Roxie Armand, let's just get out of here.
Roxie [seeing Jonathan with Emmy]
I really should have listened when he asked me for help.
Armand
When you were making love to him, did he ever scream "Don't stop, Woody!"? [laughs]
Roxie [Roxie pushes Armand down the escalator] [hearing something break, alarmed]
Oh, my camera!
Roxie Jonathan, I wanna give you one last chance. Now, come to Illustra!
What is in this for you, Roxie? An office with a view? I don't need Illustra or you. I have friends here, people who care. And someone who makes me feel good about myself. Goodbye, Roxie.
Roxie [Jonathan and Emmy leave Prince and Company on his motorcycle] [shouts after him]
You'll be sorry! You're making a serious mistake!
Mrs. Timkin, those video cameras. Did they pick up everything last night?
Roxie [to Emmy]
Just where do you come from?
Roxie, you would never understand.
[Jonathan and Emmy leave the store room before Roxie] [snaps his fingers to B.J. in a justified manner]
Mm-hmm.
