Charlene Shiherlis

Charlene Shiherlis: What else are you selling?
Sgt. Drucker: All kinds of shit. But I don't have to sell this and you know it, 'cause this kind of shit here sells itself.

Neil McCauley: [after seeing her with another man a leave Motel room] Who was that guy?
Charlene Shiherlis: Nobody.
Neil McCauley: [Angrily] Who was that guy?
Charlene Shiherlis: [Nervously] Nobody.
Neil McCauley: Who is he?
Charlene Shiherlis: His a broker from Las Vegas
Neil McCauley: Chris is going to straighten it up with you.
Charlene Shiherlis: It's too late I'm sick of it.
Neil McCauley: [shouting] SHUT UP, here's the deal: You'll give Chris one last shot. If he fucks up, I'll finance setting you up any way you want. Dominick too; and my word counts, but you will give him the shot. Now clean up and go home.

Charlene Shiherlis: It's because I'm married to a gambling junkie who won't listen.
Chris Shiherlis: Charlene, get in the fucking car.
Charlene Shiherlis: What am I doing in this rat-bastard situation?
Chris Shiherlis: You're not! What do you want from me? Leave the bank book and car keys and the kitchen on your way out. Are we going, or am I going alone?
Charlene Shiherlis: You could keep that other crap but Dominick would go with me.
Chris Shiherlis: Don't you even think about--
[storms out breaking a picture frame on his way out]

Charlene Shiherlis: [after first arriving at the the safe house] so what now?
Sgt. Drucker: [referring to Alan Marciano] well he's right if you want "out", this is "out", even if you have to betray Chris
Charlene Shiherlis: [sarcastically] no shit

Sgt. Drucker: [to Charlene in the safe house, referring to if she'll accept their deal or not] one answer: what's it going to be?
Charlene Shiherlis: [tearfully, slightly nods]

Charlene Shiherlis: [upon entering the safe with Alan, while carrying Dominick, startled to see police officers already waiting inside, realizing he set her up to be turned into the police] you slimy piece of shit
Alan Marciano: you wanted out from under right? You're scared to death right? If you want "out" this is "out"
Charlene Shiherlis: [referring to how he will be benefited from turning her into the police] yeah what's your end?

Sgt. Drucker: [after introducing himself as she first enters the safe house] do you want to put Dominick in the bedroom?
Charlene Shiherlis: [while putting Dominick on a couch] he stays with me

Neil McCauley: [over the phone after seeing Chris sleeping on the floor of his empty living room] Chris' is at my place, what's wrong?
Charlene Shiherlis: [over the phone, implying he shouldn't get involved with their personal family matters] husband and wife stuff.
Neil McCauley: I'll let him sleep it off here.

Charlene Shiherlis: [after signaling Chris that it's a trap, lying to Drucker] It's not him, it's not Chris.
Sgt. Drucker: Would you like a cup of coffee while we wait?
Charlene Shiherlis: Yeah that'd be nice.

Alan Marciano: [over the speaker phone with the Vegas cop listening] Yeah?
Charlene Shiherlis: [while holding a crying Dominick in her arms] Yeah you still want me? You come down here right now, Dominick and me, ok?
Alan Marciano: Okay baby, I'll be there in two hours alright?
Charlene Shiherlis: Alright.
Charlene Shiherlis: [after hanging up the phone with Alan] God damn you Chris, God damn you.
Vegas Cop: You're on a plane to Los Angeles.
Alan Marciano: Right.
