There are no mock chaining. The result of getStatus should also be a mock on which you will mock getMessage and then everything will work as expected

TBXClient client = mock(TBXClient.class);
Status status = mock(Status.class);
expect(client.getStatus()).andReturn(status);
expect(status.getMessage()).andReturn("check");
replay(client, status);

However, Status looks a lot like a value type, so it probably doesn't need to be mocked. In this case, I would just do.

TBXClient client = mock(TBXClient.class);
expect(client.getStatus()).andReturn(Status.CHECK);
replay(client, status);
