Parker is probably best known for her work in Christopher Guest films, and she has had lead roles in bigger blockbusters such as Blade Trinity, where she played a vampire. In „Boston Legal,” she will play Marlene Stranger, a transfer from another company nicknamed „The Squid.” She is a BlackBerry manipulator and got her nickname because the squid is the only animal that can kill a shark in mythology. Let`s hope the shark she`s looking for isn`t Denny Crane. After all, he`s Denny Crane. Dialogue from the episode Dr. Harati Waibi: Although it is legal in Nepal, our clinic made the decision not to do it in order to receive US funds.

Donny Crane: Don`t you find it strange that in our campaign to stop abortion, freedom of speech has been restricted, which is a hallmark of democracy? Denny Crane: Objection. Irrelevant and unpatriotic. Derek Roth: And she said I didn`t have a sense of humor. I joke all the time. Atty John Lenox: These jokes are rolling. These are puns and puns are not funny. Derek Roth: Well, it`s just your O-Opunion.
