Charity James: Roxy Rocket, Roxanne Sutton

Quotes 

• Roxy Rocket : Come on. The sooner you fork it over, the sooner you can party.

  Young Woman : [Struggling to get her ring off]  I can't get it off. It's stuck.

  Roxy Rocket : Never mind. Keep it.

  Young Woman : Oh, thank you. Thank you.

  Roxy Rocket : Don't thank me, thank El Cheapo for buying cubic zirconium.

• The Penguin : You worry me, my pippin. The chances that you take. I want you to tone it down.

  Roxy Rocket : Ha! And what? Spoil the fun?

  The Penguin : This isn't a movie, you know. I'm a legitimate businessman now. I don't want to draw attention to myself. I can't afford to have my associates getting Batman all excited.

  Roxy Rocket : But he loved it. I know he lives for the chase and I was the best he ever had.

  The Penguin : Ever been pursued by a bird of prey?

  Roxy Rocket : Sorry, Pengie. Some things are just too scary, even for me.

• The Penguin : You practically threw yourself into Batman's hands! If he catches you, what's to prevent him from making the connection to me? You would've put my whole operation at risk.

  Roxy Rocket : Relax, Pengie. First, he's not gonna catch me. And second, I'm not a pigeon. I won't squawk.

  The Penguin : I've seen him crack tougher eggs then you. I'm sorry, my dear. I just can't take that chance.

  [raises umbrella at her] 

  Roxy Rocket : What's this?

  The Penguin : I assure you, it's not filled with birdseed.

  Roxy Rocket : But I thought you liked me.

  The Penguin : I do. But an old bird like me can't afford such flights of fancy.

• Roxy Rocket : You missed your calling, Batman. You should have been in the movies.

  Batman : Give it up, Roxy.

  Roxy Rocket : I'm afraid that's not in my nature.

  Batman : Mine neither.

  Roxy Rocket : That's what makes us such a perfect couple.

• The Penguin : Late again, my felonious falcon. I heard you flew into a little trouble.

  Roxy Rocket : No trouble, just excitement.

  [showing him the loot from the zeppelin robbery] 

  Roxy Rocket : Besides, I think you'll find these worth the wait.

• The Penguin : [inspecting a precious gem]  Very nice.

  Roxy Rocket : It ain't chicken feed.

  The Penguin : [paying her]  For your nest egg.

  Roxy Rocket : [picking up a deck of cards]  High card. Double or nothin'?

  The Penguin : Unlike you, my dear, I don't take unnecessary risks.

• Roxy Rocket : Oh, baby, you're the best! The ultimate thrill. The final stunt. Me and you.

  [almost orgasmically] 

  Roxy Rocket : Yeah... yeah! YEAH!

  [in free fall] 

  Roxy Rocket : I knew it would be this way. The final stunt is the best.

  [Batman deploys a parachute and they land safely] 

  Roxy Rocket : What? I get it. We live to play another day.

  [realizing she's in handcuffs] 

  Roxy Rocket : W-W-What's this?

  Batman : [police cars approach]  My kind of game. And you lost.

• Roxy Rocket : I love a man with staying power.

  [aiming a weapon at Batman] 

  Roxy Rocket : Unfortunately, it's the third-act climax, and you're not in the final scene.

• Batman : What are you doing?

  Roxy Rocket : Testing your true mettle, Batman. Jump now and you'll land in the water.

  Batman : And if I don't?

  Roxy Rocket : You'll either crash into the canyon wall or hit the ground ahead.

  Batman : So will you.

  Roxy Rocket : Now you understand the game. Time is running out. Better make your move.

  [he crosses his arms, unconcerned] 

  Batman : [grabbing her wrist as she reaches for the controls]  I thought you enjoyed risk.

• Lucius Fox : And after several weeks of competitive bidding...

  Bruce Wayne : And a king's ransom.

  Lucius Fox : ...Wayne Industries is now the proud owner of "Woman in Transition"

  [uncovering a painting, to underwhelmed indifference] 

  Bruce Wayne : Security seems kind of light, Lucius.

  Lucius Fox : Believe me, Bruce, it's covered. We've got guards posted at the main entrance and at all the elevators. No way anyone can get up here.

  Roxy Rocket : [crashing through the window]  Now, if nobody gives me trouble, this'll all be quick and painless.

  [taking the painting] 

  Roxy Rocket : Ah. A bold statement. Energetic, forceful, and yet small enough to fit in a saddlebag.

• Roxy Rocket : [about Batman]  Well, you've got the skills, you've got the guts, but you just don't have the tools.
