Emily
- Emily: Andrea, my God! You look so chic.
- Andy Sachs: Oh, thanks. You look so thin.
- Emily: Really? It's for Paris, I'm on this new diet. Well, I don't eat anything and when I feel like I'm about to faint I eat a cube of cheese. I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.
- Andy Sachs: [panicking over getting the Harry Potter manuscript] Is she back? Am I fired?
- Emily: You know, I rarely say this to people who... aren't me, but you have got to calm down! Bloody hell...
- Emily: I'm sorry, do you have some prior commitment? Some hideous skirt convention you have to go to?
- Emily: [to Andy] You sold your soul to the devil when you put on your first pair of Jimmy Choos, I saw it.
- Miranda Priestly: I don't understand why it's so difficult to confirm an appointment.
- Emily: I know. I'm so sorry, Miranda. I actually did confirm last night.
- Miranda Priestly: Details of your incompetence do not interest me. Tell Simone I'm not going to approve that girl that she sent me for the Brazilian layout. I asked for clean, athletic, smiling. She sent me dirty, tired and paunchy. And R.S.V.P. yes to Michael Kors' party, I want the driver to drop me off at 9:30 and pick me up at 9:45 sharp. Call Natalie at Glorious Foods and tell her no for the 40th time. No! I don't want dacquoise. I want tortes filled with warm rhubarb compote. Then call my ex-husband and remind him that the parent-teacher conference is at Dalton tonight. Then call my husband, ask him to meet me for dinner at that place I went to with Massimo. Tell Richard I saw the pictures that he sent for that feature on the female paratroopers and they're all so deeply unattractive. Is it impossible to find a lovely, slender, female paratrooper? Am I reaching for the stars here? Not really. Also, I need to see all the things that Nigel has pulled for Gwyneth's second cover try. I wonder if she's lost any of that weight yet.
- [seeing Andy]
- Miranda Priestly: Who is that?
- Emily: You went upstairs? You went upstairs. Oh my God. Why didn't you just crawl into bed with her and ask for a bedtime story?
- Emily: When I am not here... Andrea, you are chained to that desk!
- Andy Sachs: But what if I have to...
- Emily: What? No! Nothing! One time an assistant left the desk. Oh, because she sliced her hand open with a letter opener, and Miranda missed Lagerfeld just before he was about to board a 17 hour flight to Austrailia. She now works at TV Guide.
- Andy Sachs: Man the desk at all times. Got it.
- [rushing out the door to accomplish an impossible task for Miranda]
- Andy Sachs: Wish me luck!
- Emily: No. Shan't.
- Emily: Okay, so I was Miranda's second assistant. But her first assistant recently got promoted, and so now, I'm the first.
- Andy Sachs: Oh, and you're replacing yourself.
- Emily: Andrea, Runway is a fashion magazine, so an interest in fashion is crucial.
- Andy Sachs: What makes you think I'm not interested in fashion?
- Emily: Oh my God. No, no, no!
- Andy Sachs: What's wrong?
- Emily: [on telephone] She's on her way. Tell everyone.
- Nigel: Tsk. She's not supposed to be here until nine.
- Emily: Her driver just text messaged and her facialist ruptured a disc. God, these people.
- Nigel: [points at Andy and mouths] Who's that?
- Emily: *That* I can't even talk about.
- Nigel: [opens the door] Alright everyone, gird your loins!
- [as he's leaving]
- Nigel: Did someone eat an onion bagel?
- Andy Sachs: [looks slightly embarrased, starts smelling her breath]
- Emily: [deleted scene - during the rush as Miranda arrives] Oh God, you're still there. Um. Go. No. Stay. Stay. Sit there, sit there and I will pray she does not notice you are in the area
- [leaves]
- Andy Sachs: It's like self-esteem camp.
- Emily: I don't care if she was going to fire you or beat you with a red hot poker, you should've said no.
- Emily: [talking about Andrea] I absolutely have no idea why Miranda hired her.
- Serena: Tell me about it. We were in the Beauty Department and she held up this Shu Uemura eyelash curler and said "What is this?"
- Emily: [laughing] I just knew that when the first moment I saw her, she was going to be a complete and utter disas...
- [Andrea walks in with a new outfit]
- Andy Sachs: [answering the phone] Miranda Priestly's office... No, she's not in right now but I'll leave word... OK, thanks. Bye.
- Emily: [shocked by Andrea's new look] How... Are you wearing the Ch...
- Andy Sachs: Chanel boots? Yeah, I am.
- Serena: You look good.
- [Emily scowls]
- Serena: What? She does...
- Emily: Oh, shut up, Serena.
