Margaret

Margaret is a main character in Regular Show. Margaret is a female Robin who works as a waitress in the Coffee Shop, with her best friend Eileen, across the street from The Park. Mordecai has a huge crush on her, and is always finding ways to make excuses to go to the coffee shop to see her. Margaret made her debut in "Caffeinated Concert Tickets". Margaret is voiced by Janie Haddad.

Appearance
Margaret is a Robin. Her feathers are red and white in color; her beak is curved. She has brownish spots on the sides of her head, which are comma shaped, and a curved hairstyle. When she isn't working, she usually wears jeans and yellow shirts except in "Caffeinated Concert Tickets". Her personality can be described as a kind-hearted, caring, and down-to-earth woman. She's only ever gotten mad once at Mordecai in "Butt Dial" because he tried to remove the embarrassing voicemail by hacking into her phone but once she heard the voicemail she ended up saving it as her ringtone and forgave Mordecai for taking her phone. She is possibly as tall as Skips.

Mordecai
Mordecai is one of her best friends, and also her crush (as shown in "TGI Tuesday", and other episodes). Episodes that Margaret appear in are usually accompanied by a failed attempt by Mordecai to initiate a conversation, which proves to be an arduous task itself.

The two appear to be friends ever since Margaret's first appearance in "Caffeinated Concert Tickets". Much to Mordecai's dismay, Margaret seems to be totally oblivious toward Mordecai's interest on her, even showing off her other dates in front of him.

In the episode "Meat Your Maker" while Mordecai was unconscious, Mordecai was having a fantasy dream about him and Margaret on a tropical island. Margaret was wearing a seashell bikini top and a grass skirt, and Mordecai had a six-pack along with pecs and muscles. The two spin, until a gigantic Rigby comes out of the ground, saying "Mordecai! I'm gonna FIX IT!", and knocks Margaret down.

In the episode "Mordecai and the Rigbys", when Mordecai asks the future Mordecai if he gets to go on a date with Margaret, future Mordecai's response is, "I wouldn't wanna ruin the surprise", hinting that he scored a date with her, but that was only if Mordecai played the concert and became famous.

In the episode "It's Time", Mordecai helped Margaret move out of her old apartment, by loading boxes into the moving truck. During this time, Rigby asks Margaret out on a date to make Mordecai as jealous as possible. When Mordecai shoves all of the clocks inside the microwave, they get transported to Father Time. Mordecai is so jealous that he shoves Rigby off the microwave, killing him. Father Time lets him off the hook, and goes back in time. When asked if he was jealous that Rigby broke a date with Margaret, Mordecai admitted he was a little jealous. After this episode, Mordecai developed the fear of microwaves as seen in "Diary".

In the episode "High Score", Mordecai impresses Margaret by beating the high score to Broken Bonez, a new arcade game that was installed by her manager. When he beats the high score, Margaret runs over to Mordecai to give him a hug.

In the episode "Brain Eraser", when Mordecai is in his own imagination from watching Planet Chasers: Starlight Excellent, Margaret asks Eileen if he has been working out, hinting that Margaret may have a crush on him.

In the episode "Do Me a Solid", Rigby kept using solids because Mordecai made Rigby do a solid to go out with Eileen so Mordecai can go out with Margaret for 10 solids. He keeps using up his solids to ruin Mordecai's date. When asked to do a tenth solid, Mordecai denies it, and the house starts crumbling into lava. Margaret then confesses that she only tagged along because she was doing Eileen a solid to go out with Rigby. He finally does the tenth solid, which is never released to the audience due to the fact that he was possibly doing something that would never get past the censors.

In the episode "Camping Can Be Cool", Mordecai, Rigby, and Eileen try to make Margaret go camping since she has never been camping before. After a musical montage of them doing various outdoor activities, the two of them are lying on the hood of Margaret's car, using the windshield as a headrest, while Rigby and Eileen are playing video games. They talk about how Margaret is planning to quit her job at The Coffee Shop once she graduates, much to Mordecai's displeasure. In the middle of all of is, Mordecai looks at Margaret's hand, wanting to hold it, but wusses out.

In the episode "Slam Dunk", Mordecai agrees to build a website for Margaret, but Muscle Man hogs the computer even though he is out playing basketball. After being shot up into space, and coming back down, Margaret informs him that that was two months ago, and Eileen did it for her, but Margaret thought he was pretty hot out there.

In the episode "House Rules", Mordecai and Rigby leave The Park and they ask if they can stay at the Coffee Shop, but Margaret can't allow them due to her manager's rules, but Margaret calls Mordecai a rebel.

In the episode "Cruisin'", Mordecai and Rigby make a bet with Margaret and Eileen that cruising will get you a girl's number. Winner gets to pick where to eat, and loser has to pay for it. However, Margaret and Eileen have two fake dates, Tuck Packerd, and Chad "Ironchest". After Mordecai and Rigby crash Pop's car in a tree at Twine Peaks Mall, Margaret and Eileen come to their aide. Faking that they have to go to the hospital, Margaret and Eileen give their numbers so they can reschedule. However, they never said anything about their numbers, so Mordecai and Rigby won the bet, but Margaret and Eileen got to choose the restaurant. Margaret decided "Best Sandwiches in Town" (The Coffee Shop), and holds Mordecai's hand.

In the episode "Butt Dial", Margaret hears Mordecai's embarrassing message (in which he sings about her and how it would be if they were together) and surprisingly sets it as a ring tone for when Mordecai calls her. She also tells him that he'd better call her more often.

In the episode "Yes Dude Yes", Mordecai was going to ask Margaret out to the Love Bot 2, but before he can do that, he sees Margaret with another man, who is kneeling on one knee, and Mordecai got so depressed, he lays in his room, and listening to the same song in the background for 5 days straight. But after Margaret reveals that it was her cousin, John (who got a new leg), Mordecai is relieved, and ask Margaret out to the movie, and she gladly accepts. However, when CJ comes and confuses the situation, she doesn't go to the movies with him, but she gets jealous.

In the episode "Access Denied," Eileen says to Margaret that she knows that Margaret is waiting to dance with Mordecai. At the end of the episode, they end up dancing.

In the episode "Death Bear", Mordecai and Margaret spend a lot of time together, talking about the memories that Mordecai had when he visited the Zoo when he was a kid. Later on in the episode, Mordecai attempts to kiss Margaret, and if the episode is paused at a certain point, it shows that Margaret wanted to kiss him back, but before she could do that, the Death Bear appears and chases them away. At the end of the episode, Margaret thanks him for being brave and saving her life, and affectionately hugs him.

In the episode "Bad Kiss", her and Mordecai had their "first kiss". Margaret found Mordecai`s breath bad and he then left, but Margaret did not want him to leave. In the end of the episode, Mordecai tries to kiss her again, but he avoids it and finds his wallet instead, leaving Margaret disappointed.

In the episode "Pie Contest" Margaret made the worst pie ever that was burnt, raw, and tasted like barf as Mordecai described it. Mordecai admitted this because Mordecai and Rigby relied on Promise Pie to judge for them, but all he did was eliminate the competition by eating everybody. Since Mordecai and Rigby had to tell the brutal truth about everybody's pie, they tell the truth saying how awful everybody's pie was. Since Margaret got eaten, Mordecai had to tell the truth about her pie, and she was spit out, and thrown on the ground. Also, this marks the second time Mordecai saved Margaret's life.

In the episode "Bald Spot", everybody asked out their friends, (Mordecai and Margaret, Rigby and Eileen, and Muscle Man and Starla) to a roller rink.

In the episode "TGI Tuesday", Mordecai, Rigby, and Eileen want to throw Margaret a party since she is transferring colleges. When there are no clubs available, the gang uses the Old Park Ballroom which has been abandoned for over 30 years. The episode focused more on Margaret's side of the relationship; for example, when Mordecai invites her to the Old Park Ballroom, she excitedly accepts, and blushes, and when she says "Que interesante", she immediately hangs up feeling like an idiot for saying that. When Margaret arrived at the party, Mordecai and Margaret immediately started partying when instantly, the song is cut short to a slow love song. Before Mordecai knows it, Margaret is leaning on his chest saying that she isn't going anywhere, and is staying with Mordecai, and ends with the two slow dancing with each other.

In the episode "Do or Diaper", Mordecai makes a bet with Muscle Man that if Mordecai doesn't kiss Margaret by Friday at midnight, Mordecai has to wear a diaper for a week, and if Mordecai does kiss Margaret, Muscle Man has to wear a diaper for a week. Due to Margaret's busy plans, they are only able to go out on Friday. After the movie, Mordecai and Margaret go down by the park river during a full moon. Mordecai, not wanting to screw up like in "Bad Kiss", loads up on mints, and therefore creates a frozen wasteland out of the park. Meanwhile, Rigby and Muscle Man fall out of Margaret's car, and Margaret asks them why they are there. Being honest, Mordecai tells Margaret about the bet, and Margaret runs away angry at him. Mordecai was using his speech skills once again to give a speech on what happened, and why he acts weird every time he is around Margaret. At the end of his speech, he admits he likes her. Margaret then goes towards Mordecai holding him. The two are about to kiss when Margaret trolls Mordecai by hugging him saying "Have a nice week, diaper boy". The episode ends with Mordecai in a diaper running around in circles with the lawnmower the next day while Muscle Man is about to take a picture of it with his cellphone but then stop because Mordecai was smiling and didn't care. Mordecai said that he realized Margaret said she enjoyed the date which means that Margaret likes him and he just has to wait for the right moment to kiss her without being part of a bet.

Overall, there is evidence that Margaret likes Mordecai back; the main piece of evidence being in Butt Dial when Mordecai reveals how hot she is in a voicemail. Hints are in "Camping Can Be Cool" when they were nearly holding hands, in "Access Denied" when Margaret dances with Mordecai, and in "Death Bear" when Mordecai and Margaret almost kiss, and finally, "Bad Kiss" because at the end she found it an "awkward moment" and closed her eyes with her beak pointed out as if she was gonna kiss him but Mordecai, not wanting to screw it up a second time, just dodges the kiss, and saves it for another time. "TGI Tuesday" also shows that Margaret likes Mordecai back.

Rigby
Margaret rarely interacts directly to Rigby, but in "It's Time", Rigby makes Margaret laugh, and almost manages to go to a movie with her, although this was just an attempt to make Mordecai admit he was jealous. Then when Father Time reset time to earlier that day, the whole thing never happened. Overall Margaret is good friends with Rigby as his best friend is Mordecai.

Eileen
Margaret and Eileen are best friends the way Mordecai and Rigby are. She is close to Eileen and does solids for her all the time. They also work at the coffee shop together.

Pops
Margaret does not seem to interact much with Pops, but in "Butt Dial", she tells him to get her cell phone. She initially found Pops weird as he referred to her cell phone as the one where Mordecai and Rigby got sucked into, when in fact that was literally what happened.

Muscle Man
Margaret has only ever interacted with Muscle Man once in "Do Me a Solid" when Eileen, Margaret, and uninvited Muscle Man were having Ice Cream Sandwiches at Mordecai and Rigby's house. Muscle Man said, "Hey ladies, look at what else I can do with my Ice Cream Sandwich!" Disgusted, Margaret tells Mordecai from the other room that she plans on going soon.

Starla
The two started interacting with each other in "The Longest Weekend", and they seem to be good friends. Margaret also shows that she doesn't have much patience for Starla's obsession with Muscle Man seen in the same episode.

Angel
Angel formerly had a relationship with Margaret during the end of "Mordecai and the Rigbys". This was before Margaret knew Mordecai had a crush on her.

Slasher
Slasher was formerly Margret's boyfriend, appearing in the episode "Caffeinated Concert Tickets". She got mad at him when he made fun of Mordecai and was presumed to have broken up eventually.

Chad
Chad was a burly guy who was invited by Margaret to have dinner with her, Eileen and her date during the episode Cruisin'. The girls brought them along to raise the stakes and further intimidate Mordecai and Rigby on their bet on whether or not they can get girls' phone numbers.

Margaret's Father
Margaret's father has never made an actual appearance in the show, but Margaret has a close relationship with her father. In "Do Me a Solid", she mentions that her father used to bring her to play mini golf when she was a child and her phone password is 'Daddy's Girl' as seen in "Butt Dial". In "Diary", she says she "can only take her parents for so long". Margaret spent her Christmas with her parents.

John (Margaret's cousin)
John is Margaret's cousin. They seem to be close as she was happy when he got a new leg. Unfortunately for Mordecai he thought John was Margaret's new boyfriend and she was engaged to him.
