Denise Crosby: Dr. Marion Baker

Quotes 

• Dr. Marion Baker : Oh, my... King Solomon's tomb. Remarkable. It's arguably the greatest discovery in the last fifty years.

  Richard Castle : Now, this, Dr. Baker, is what I need your expertise with.

  [shows a photograph of the lamp] 

  Dr. Marion Baker : Certainly. Well, you see these grooves? They indicate it was a wheel-made lamp, versus the mold-based ones that became so popular in the 4th...

  Richard Castle : Uh, fascinating, Doctor. But can you skip ahead to the part where King Solomon seals a genie inside of it?

  Dr. Marion Baker : Ah... Did Sidney put you up to this?

  Alexis Castle : Who's Sidney?

  Dr. Marion Baker : The schmuck I beat out for tenure.

  Richard Castle : Dr. Baker, I do not know Sidney. This is not a joke. I am very serious.

  Dr. Marion Baker : But you're acting as if you believe in genies.

  Alexis Castle : Doctor, it's not an act.

• Dr. Marion Baker : Well, the story of "Aladdin and the Magic Lamp" is a romantic metaphor, nothing more.

  Richard Castle : Of course, but what if, and I- and I'm only saying, what if, the legend of genies were based in fact?

  Dr. Marion Baker : Well, I certainly hope it isn't. Genies are frightful creatures.

  Richard Castle : You're saying they're not the cheery '60s housewives or singing blue cartoons?
