Tichina Arnold: Rochelle

Quotes 

• Rochelle : I don't want Tonya working. She's still a little girl.

  Julius : This will be good for her. She'll be learning responsibility and plus, she'll be making a little money.

  Narrator : What he really meant was...

  Julius : She'll be making money, she'll be making money, she'll be making money and she'll be making money!

• Vanessa : [to Rochelle]  You gotta fire Tonya.

  Rochelle : Vanessa, let me talk to her first.

  Vanessa : Rochelle, I don't have time for that. I'm losing more customers than a Muslim rib shack.

  Narrator : Ah salaam a lick 'em!

  Vanessa : She broke up two marriages, she outed Jerome's uncle and she told Gloria about her mole.

  Rochelle : She told Gloria about her mole?

  Narrator : Oh, Lord! Not the mole!

• Tonya : I'm fired? How come? I swept up all the hair, I cleaned out the shampoo bowls, I even picked up those nasty toenail clippings.

  Rochelle : It's not that, Tonya. You know how I told you that women need to be able to say anything in the beauty salon?

  Tonya : Yes.

  Rochelle : Well, baby, there is a difference between saying anything and saying everything.

  Tonya : So I'm getting fired for being honest?

  Narrator : It happened to Don Imus. It could happen to you.

  Rochelle : I'm sorry, but yes.

  Tonya : You know what? I don't need this mess! My father has two jobs!

  [walks out of the salon] 

  Narrator : Deja vu. My mother would have snatched the naps out of Tonya's head, but at that moment, she was just too proud.
