HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING
Finch: Hi, I'm a Window Washer, but I really want to be the CEO of a large corporation. With my bubbly personality and winning smile, it shouldn't be too hard to do. Plus, I have this really cool handbook on how to get to the top in Corporate America.
Frump: Finch--you're a manipulative beast!
Finch: Yes--but I have a bubbly personality and a winning smile!
Rosemary: Finch--I love you!
Finch: I know--it's because I have a bubbly personality and a winning smile!
J.B. Biggeley: Finch, we're making you CEO of the Company!!!
Rosemary: And we're going to get married!
Finch: Well, a minute ago, I was a window washer. Now, I'm the CEO of a large corporation--with a beautiful girlfriend!
And it's all due to my little handbook on how to get ahead--and my bubbly personality and winning smile!!!

Effie:

Curtis:
Basically, yes.
(She goes to attack him, but C.C. holds her back)
C.C. It's okay Effie. I'll write great songs for you. Sure, you'll never be as famous as Deena, and my songs will be stolen by not only white people, but Curtis, too. But that doesn't matter. Cause we are a family.
Effie:
I've waited so long for you to say that to me.
Deena:
Can I go now? I'm too big a star to listen to this mess.
(40 years later)
Lorell (on the phone):
Hi, Deena, I hear you're doing a Dreams reunion.

WONDERFUL TOWN
Ruth: Hi, we just arrived in Greenwich Village in the 1930s from Ohio. My sister Eileen is the pretty demure one, and I'm the opinionated loud-mouthed unattractive one.
Bob: Ruth, why can't you be a Quiet Girl like your sister? I might like you more!
Ruth: Well, right now, I have to dance the Conga with some Brazillian cadets for about ten choruses--I'll see what I can do!
Eileen: Oh, Bob--you LOVE Ruth--you just DON'T KNOW It!
Bob: Hey, you're right! I'm going to tell her tonight at the singing gig you got!

Camelot
King Arthur: I'm an secure king.
Guenevere: Well, I'm a lusty slut. Let's get married.
They marry. Time passes.
Lancelot: I'm a flawless God.
Guenevere: I'm a lusty slut who likes a flawless God more than an insecure king. Let's have an affair.
They have an affair. Times passes. They have more affairs.
Mordred: I'm a rotten scoundrel who loves ruining the lives of insecure kings, lusty sluts and flawless Gods.
He ruins their lives.
The audience cries. Some for Arthur. Some for the numbness their butt feels after seeing a long ass show.

Miss Saigon
Engineer: Hi, I'm the engineer. I was originated by a British white man, but somewhere in the run, I turned Asian, which is what I was originally, yet, some found it confusing. Anyways, I own whores. Here is my new whore Kim.
Kim: Hi, I'm Kim. I was originated by a Phillipine, and in this run, I have been Japanese, Chinese, Thai, Korean, but never really Viet Namese. Anyway, I'm a virginal whore, and I'm about to fall in love to American named Chris.
Chris: Hi, I'm Chris. I don't know what I'm doing here in Viet Nam. I just know that I will fall in love with a virginal whore.
(Days pass)
Kim: Oh, look! It's so big! And it makes a lot of noise. How did they get that big thing in the theatre?
Chris: It's called a helicopter. I have to go, and you won't come with me, because these flimsy chain link fences are stopping you, along with these soldiers and their plastic guns.
(Years pass)
Kim: I have a son, and he needs to be with his father.
Ellen. Hi, I'm Ellen. I was originated by such actresses as Claire Moore and Liz Calloway, but like the Engineer, somewhere in the run, I became Asian. I think I became an Asian because I remind Chris of Kim, which is kind of sad...or confusing...or both. Anyway, I'm an Asian-American.
Kim: Which is why you can give a better life to my son.
Ellen: I don't want your son.
Kim: You bitch! Don't you know that I am in a third world, not to mention time period where antideppresants don't exist? (She shoots herself)
Chris: NOOOOO!!! (after a few seconds) Well, at least I have a wife that looks like her.
