Margaret Smith is a recurring character in Regular Show. She is the daughter of Frank Smith and Denise Smith who worked at the Coffee Shop with Eileen for the first four seasons until she transferred colleges, got her journalism degree, and became a newswoman shortly before "Eileen Flat Screen" in Season Six.
Throughout Seasons 1-3, she served as Mordecai’s love interest where they kissed and dated in Season Four, but they broke up after Margaret left town for college in "Steak Me Amadeus" and they agreed to remain just friends after she has returned, and after a love triangle involving her, Mordecai, and CJ occurred.
After the finale, according to the writers, Margaret continued her career as a newswoman, even traveling to other places around the world, though she still kept in touch with Mordecai, Eileen, and Rigby.
Margaret made her debut in the Season One episode "Caffeinated Concert Tickets", and is voiced by Janie Haddad.

Appearance
Margaret is an anthropomorphic robin in her early 20s [1]. She has red and white feathers, with the lower portion of her head and the front of her body being white and her hair, arms, back, and tail feathers being red, with a brown, comma shaped marking on each side of her head. She has a grey, curved beak, and long, skinny grey legs with two toes and skinny black stripes (although her legs and hips occasionally look curvier when she wears long pants). She also has long eyelashes. Similar to Mordecai she has crested hair, albeit in a slightly longer and curved style.
Margaret is considered to be very physically attractive, as in her earlier appearances focus on her body and the skimpy outfits she wore, and how flustered Mordecai gets around her. In "Slam Dunk", the camera focuses on her butt as she rides a bike, even removing her tail feathers to have more focus on it, in "Butt Dial" Mordecai sings in his song about her that he "can't believe how hot she is" and about "her pretty face and those long long legs", and in "Caffeinated Concert Tickets", after Mordecai says he wants to go to the Fist Pump concert after Margaret says she is going, Rigby says he just wants to go for "lady pecs". Rigby also describes Margaret as "kinda hot" in his script in "Not Great Double Date". This is also proved by the fact that she had multiple boyfriends throughout Seasons 1 and 2. She also wore a white dress in "Do or Diaper" that was very similar to actress Marilyn Monroe's iconic white dress.
As a waitress, she wore the same uniform as Eileen; which consisted of a light tan top and skirt turquoise lines on the sleeves and collar. When she isn't working, her most common outfits are usually a yellow or light blue short sleeved shirt with blue jeans.
As a news reporter, she wears a blue suit, occasionally with a purple skirt in place of blue pants, with either a red tie or a pink neck scarf.
For a complete list of Margaret’s outfits, see Margaret's Alternate Outfits.
Personality
Margaret is shown to be a kind, caring and down-to-earth robin towards her friends who rarely gets upset or angry; she is only seen to be this way in "Butt Dial", "Yes Dude Yes", "Do or Diaper" and "Picking Up Margaret".
She was shown or mentioned to have a new boyfriend in most of her appearances in Seasons 1 and 2, but in Camping Can Be Cool in the beginning of Season 3 she says she’s decided to not date anyone at the moment because "guys are jerks".
Margaret also values the importance of her career and studies. In various episodes, it was mentioned that she had been working hard in school, so she would get into her dream college, Milton University. Her dream comes true and she gets accepted to Milton University.
Margaret was uncertain about leaving Mordecai, as she felt for the first time she was in a relationship that could fo somewhere, and showed deep sorrow when doing so. In "Steak Me Amadeus", she bursts into tears after telling Mordecai that she cannot be his girlfriend. Shortly after, she runs out of the restaurant, devastated that she has to leave him.
She is happy for Mordecai when she returns and finds that he is dating CJ, but due to having mutual unresolved issues regarding their relationship they end up kissing in front of CJ, starting a love triangle and making things awkward for her and Mordecai and their friends. Margaret at one point lies about dating Del Hanlon, both in order to prevent CJ from killing her when she became a hurricane again when she assumed Mordecai was cheating on her, and because she was tired of things being awkward with her own friends, and when she confesses this to CJ she also confesses she still have feelings for Mordecai.
After Mordecai and CJ break up she and Mordecai agree to just be friends, even after seeing a potential future of their life together, which ended up just overwhelming them
She is shown to be passionate about her career in journalism, in which the episode Local News Legend focuses on, where she wants to host her own weekly news segment where she catches bad guys.
Biography
Margaret Smith is Mordecai's fifth-known love interest who is a 22-year-old red-breasted female robin who formerly worked as a waitress at the Coffee Shop across the street from The Park, and Mordecai would often make excuses to see her while she was at work.
Mordecai clearly had feelings for Margaret, although he did not have to courage to ask her out, as seen in "It's Time". Margaret only appeared to see him as just a friend, although her feelings toward him were hinted in a few earlier episodes, and the two spend more time together in Season Three, in episodes such as "Camping Can Be Cool" and "Death Bear", in the latter episode the two looked as if they were about to kiss before being interrupted by Death Bear's appearance.
In "Bad Kiss", the two share their first kiss in Margaret's car. However, Margaret pulls away due to Mordecai’s bad breath, so he uses Rigby's time machine to undo it.
In the episode "Picking Up Margaret", Margaret says that Mordecai is always there for her, something she can't say about some people she knows. At the end of the episode, she kisses him before she boards her flight, leaving Mordecai dumbfounded, then filled with joy.
In "Meteor Moves", Mordecai gets sent to the "friend zone" after failing to kiss Margaret several times because he is afraid that it will screw their friendship up. After being pressured by many people, Mordecai manages to kiss Margaret during the meteor shower. The two hold hands as they return to Margaret's car. It's eventually revealed that Margaret has romantic feelings for Mordecai as well.
In the end of "Steak Me Amadeus", Mordecai asks Margaret to be his girlfriend, and she says she feels like they could be in a relationship that could actually go somewhere. However, she holds up an acceptance letter to her dream college, Milton University. She then declines his offer, crying and leaving Mordecai heartbroken. After the events, Mordecai informs Rigby that he drove her to the airport, ending the episode.
At the beginning of "Laundry Woes", Mordecai is deeply depressed and his coworkers do everything they can to cheer him up; after a few days of his favorite activities, Mordecai is back to his old self. However, as soon as he discovers a sweater that Margaret left behind, he becomes fixated on returning it to her, despite Rigby's continuous advice to get over Margaret leaving town.
When he finally arrives to Milton University, he sees Margaret with her friends, and he suddenly realizes that she's moved on, and is happier in her dream school. He then throws the sweater in the garbage, (almost) moving on as well. With Margaret gone, Mordecai becomes closer to another girl named CJ; they had previously met on a blind date, but things had gone south after Mordecai accidentally invited both CJ and Margaret to see the same movie; he was also not ready for a romantic relationship. After Mordecai and CJ patch things up with Margaret gone, eventually they start dating.
In "I Like You Hi", Mordecai looks at a slideshow of them together, from "Steak Me Amadeus", before leaving to do activities with CJ. Mordecai explains that he doesn't have feelings for her anymore, but also admits that he still thinks of her sometimes. He also explains that he doesn't miss her, but in a way he does. Despite this, he and CJ have a great time and truly seem to like each others company.
In "Merry Christmas Mordecai", Mordecai becomes nervous when he hears that Margaret will be there. After several awkward encounters (thanks to Mordecai), they finally manage to have a normal conversation with both acknowledging that they had some good times. This leads to a montage of memories, ending with a kiss on a roller coaster. Unfortunately, when the scenes flashes to the present, they accidentally kiss on the lips and are shocked when they notice CJ watching them. CJ runs out of the house and leaves while Mordecai runs upstairs to find his phone; he notices that all of Margaret's stuff is there and Eileen tells him she is staying as an intern. Mordecai is frantic when he hears the news and didn't know what to say about Margaret staying with Eileen from now on.
As of "Sad Sax", Mordecai and Margaret are still just friends, and Mordecai makes it up to CJ by telling her the honest truth.
In "1000th Chopper Flight Party", Mordecai is still awkward with her presence and afraid to screw up, even to the point of letting Rigby constantly mess up the Party as a diversion just to keep her away from him. When he finally is declared as the lucky guest to ride Chopper 6 for its 1000th flight, he finds it hard to say no and joins. Margaret tries to talk to him, but Mordecai awkwardly resists until she scolds him for his attitude in desire for their friendship. Mordecai then lifts the tension with a joke and they finally start to have a fun chat. This however angers CJ, who misinterprets it as them rekindling their love, and she causes havoc with her storm cloud ability. Mordecai tries to save Margaret, but she calms CJ when she reveals that she is in a relationship with news anchor, Del Hanlon, which stuns Mordecai and surprises her parents.
In "Not Great Double Date", He seemed upset that Margaret appeared to have a boyfriend for herself, but still said that she seemed happy with Del and that he liked him. When she confessed that Del was not her boyfriend and that she was tired of feeling like a tourist around her friends because of the tension with CJ, he felt sad about it and was pretty interested to know that she still had feelings for him.
In "Just Friends", Rigby and Eileen go to the presentation of martial arts Don therefore Mordecai and Margaret spend a night that coincidentally has romantic moments. A chef named Daisuke shows them their future using magical sauce. It is revealed that if and when Mordecai and Margaret get together, they will get married, have children, buy their own houseboat, and die peacefully after 50 happy years.

Relationships
Love Interests
Mordecai had a serious crush on Margaret that he was too afraid to admit throughout Seasons 1 and 2. They gradually became closer friends from season 3 to season 4 until they broke up around season 5. However, they remained friends afterward.
In "Butt Dial", she became angry after learning that Mordecai tried to remove the embarrassing voicemail he left her that admitted his feelings by hacking into her phone. Once she heard the voicemail, however, she ended up saving it as her ringtone and forgave Mordecai for taking her phone, improving their relationship.
In "Yes Dude Yes", Mordecai became upset when he thought Margaret was engaged to John, who he ended up learning was her cousin. Mordecai then asked Margaret to the movies, forgetting that he had already asked CJ. Near the end of the episode, Margaret showed signs of jealousy, primarily because Mordecai had hung out with and also asked CJ.
In "TGI Tuesday", Margaret showed some signs that she may have feelings for Mordecai. She answered excitedly when Mordecai asked if she wanted to hang out with him, immediately blushing afterwards. She was also embarrassed when she messed up her words while talking to Mordecai on the phone. Afterwards, at Margaret's party, Mordecai and Margaret slow dance, with Margaret laying her head on his chest.
In "Do or Diaper", Margaret got mad at him once again upon discovering that her "date" with Mordecai was only for a bet with Muscle Man. She forgives him after he admits that he likes her, but chooses to let him lose the bet as consequence for accepting such a dumb bet by whispering in his ear: "Have a nice week, diaper boy."
In "Picking Up Margaret", they are being chased by the Wickets. However, she ends up thanking him after they make it to the airport on time and alive.

The pair share a kiss at the episode, leaving Mordecai dumbfounded and then overjoyed.
In "Meteor Moves", Mordecai planned to kiss Margaret at Makeout Mountain. Mordecai tries to be alone with her, but Rigby and Eileen get in the way, causing Mordecai to tell Rigby to go somewhere else on the mountain with Eileen so that he can be alone with Margaret. Margaret subsequently tells Mordecai that the reason she doesn't want to leave for college is because she would miss him. Mordecai leans in to kiss her, but the meteor shower starts, causing the pair to be pulled into "The Friend Zone" because of Mordecai's hesitation. Mordecai tells the Guardian of the Friend Zone that he has wanted to kiss Margaret for a long time, and the Guardian relents and gives him another chance. Mordecai then shows his true feelings and kisses her, with the Guardian pronouncing them "out of the friend zone". Mordecai and Margaret are then shown holding hands.
In the end of "Steak Me Amadeus", Mordecai asks Margaret to be his girlfriend, but Margaret tells him that even though what they have is special and that their relationship was the first that could have lead somewhere, she has been accepted into her dream college, Milton University. She declines Mordecai's offer, leaving the restaurant crying and Mordecai heartbroken.
In the episode "Laundry Woes," Mordecai becomes fixated on returning a sweater he found on his laundry to her, despite Rigby's continuous advice to get over Margaret leaving town. When he finally arrives to Milton University, Margaret is seen with her college friends cheerfully talking about school stuff. Realizing she has moved on, Mordecai does the same and discards the sweater, ready to move on, and leaves without noticing that Margaret did look up.
In "Merry Christmas Mordecai", Margaret returns as she is invited to the sweater party, which makes Mordecai nervous since CJ is also coming to the party. They accidentally kiss in the lips from reminiscing after clearing up a misunderstanding, causing a heartbroken CJ to dash back into the car and for Mordecai and Margaret to gaze at each other in a concerned look. When Eileen tells Mordecai that Margaret will be moving in as her new roommate, he is stunned and shocked while Margaret looks on to him.
In "Sad Sax", Mordecai takes advice from the Sad Sax Guy. He invites Margaret to the park so she can talk to CJ girl-to-girl. Margaret says she's sorry about the incident but says she doesn't want to get involved with CJ. Shortly after, Mordecai and Margaret share a friendly hug. Meanwhile CJ drives past, seeing them hugging, and drives away angrily. Margaret then leaves after saying to Mordecai "Sorry Mordecai, I'm gonna go before I make things even worse."
At the end of the episode Mordecai tells CJ that Margaret means a lot to him, and how much he loved her in the past and how sad he was to see her leave. He also states that he doesn't want to lose CJ too, and that he's completely over Margaret, and they're still good friends.
In "1000th Chopper Flight Party", Mordecai is still awkward with her presence and afraid to screw up, even to the point of letting Rigby constantly mess up the Party as a diversion just to keep her away from him.

In "Dumped at the Altar", the season 6 finale, Mordecai and CJ 'take a break' after Margaret's feelings are revealed.
In "Just Friends", Rigby and Eileen go to the presentation of martial arts to see Don compete: therefore, Mordecai and Margaret spend a night that coincidentally has romantic moments. Throughout the night, Margaret made of list of everything and upon revealing it to Mordecai, blushed and stated she liked listing. A chef named Daisuke shows them their future using magical sauce. It is revealed that if and when Mordecai and Margaret get together, they will get married, have children, and buy their own houseboat, and die peacefully after 50 happy years.

In Snow Tubing, she pairs-off with Mordecai when she joined Eileen and Rigby for snow tubing and got along with him only as friends.
In "Rigby's Graduation Day Special", she was very worried as she watched Mordecai and the other park workers were shot into space, even saying his name in concern.
However, in the epilogue to "A Regular Epic Final Battle", she is seen only greeting Eileen when she returns where she does not end up with Mordecai and she is not seen with the group 25 years later, although Matt Price confirmed she still keeps in touch with him.
Friends
Margaret and Eileen are best friends in the same way that Mordecai and Rigby are. She is close to Eileen and reveals she does solids for her all the time in "Do Me a Solid" including watering Margaret's flowers when she was away with her parents in the episode "Diary". Margaret and Eileen used to work together at the coffee shop until Margaret left town to attend Milton University, which was her dream school. It is unknown how their friendship was during the time that she was away, but at the end of "Merry Christmas Mordecai", we see that they are still friends, and that Margaret has become Eileen's new roommate. In the series finale, she hugs Eileen when she and park workers (expect for Pops) return from space after 3 years.
Margaret rarely interacts directly with Rigby, with one exception being "It's Time", when Rigby makes Margaret laugh and almost manages to go to a movie with her, despite it just being an attempt to make Mordecai admit his jealousy. However, it is otherwise implied that Margaret and Rigby are good friends, even though Rigby often teased and made fun of Mordecai for his attempts to get with her even though she didn't display much personality.
The first time Margaret interacts with CJ is in the episode "Yes Dude Yes". This is after Mordecai and CJ become good friends when Mordecai believes Margaret is engaged. Margaret is jealous after finding out that Mordecai and CJ had been seeing each other, and both women are angry when they find out that Mordecai invited them both to the same movie. In the end, CJ leaves after Mordecai apologizes to her and Margaret declines his offer to go to the movies.
The next time we see them is in "Survival Skills"; fighting in Mordecai's imagination.
Margaret finally meets CJ officially in "Merry Christmas Mordecai" while at Eileen's sweater party. At first, they are both pleasant towards each other until Margaret figures out that CJ and Mordecai are dating. Feeling a bit awkward, she leaves the scene. Later, when CJ is in the bathroom, Margaret tells Mordecai that she didn't expect him to wait for her and that she is happy for him. However, Mordecai and Margaret accidentally kiss in front of CJ while reminiscing about the past. This left CJ heartbroken so she ran out of the party and drove off. Margaret tells her it's not what it looks like.
Margaret shows in "Sad Sax" and in "Merry Christmas Mordecai" that she is sorry about what happened and for the trouble she caused. So she chooses to not get involved because she feels like it'll make things worse for CJ and Mordecai. She even wishes him good luck (sincerely) after CJ drives off again when she sees Mordecai hug Margaret in the park.
In "I See Turtles", Margaret is contacted by CJ through Eileen's phone for help. When noticed, Margaret immediately arrives to the beach, and reports the sea turtle abusers. After the whole incident, CJ tells Eileen that she called Margaret for help, and Eileen is filled with joy. Margaret and CJ become friends, and Eileen forces them all to share an awkward group hug.
In" 1000th Chopper Flight Party", CJ still has resentment on Margaret as briefly shown in the beginning of the episode. When CJ sees both Mordecai and Margaret board Chopper 6, laughing and having fun, she gets the wrong impression and she enrages into her storm cloud. Mordecai fails to calm CJ down, and the turbulences of the chopper keep making him give CJ wrong impressions. Margaret manages to calm CJ down by revealing that Del Hanlon of Sports TV Anchor is her boyfriend, as he comes to the party. CJ calms down and turns back to her normal form, but is now filled with remorse for nearly killing Margaret parents and worrying for nothing. CJ then leaves the party crying as Margaret, Mordecai, Eileen, and Del Hanlon watch her leave.
In "Not Great Double Date", CJ arranged a double date to atone for wrecking the party, and seemed to get along with Margaret while she didn't know Margaret wasn't really dating anyone. and she left angrily after Margaret told her the truth.
In "Local News Legend", it is shown that CJ still dislikes her when she changes the channel from her achievement airing.
Margaret did not interact very much with Pops. In "Butt Dial", she asks him where Mordecai and Rigby are. She initially found Pops weird after he referred to her cell phone as the one Mordecai and Rigby "got sucked into" (which did indeed happen).
Margaret has only ever interacted with Muscle Man once, in "Do Me a Solid". In the episode, Eileen, Margaret, and an uninvited, shirtless Muscle Man eat ice cream sandwiches at the Park house, prompting Muscle Man to exclaim "Hey ladies, watch what else I can do with my ice cream sandwich!". Margaret then disgustedly tells Mordecai from the other room that she plans on leaving soon.
Starla and Margaret interacting with each other in "The Longest Weekend", and appeared to be good friends, though Margaret doesn't have much patience for Starla's obsession with Muscle Man. She, along with Eileen, helped comfort Starla when she was upset that Muscle Man didn't call, text, or email her.

- "We felt like the Margaret / CJ story was complete, and they were both on their own path already. We also felt like Mordecai had moved on in his life. He finally left the park to pursue art, and we thought it'd be cool if he met someone while doing that. But we love Margaret and C.J., and we're sure that they're happy without Mordecai! He was too wishy-washy with them!!"[2]
- Matt Price later added “We really wanted everyone to move on after they landed back on Earth. Margaret too. It was three years after the Dome took off, and it just seemed like she wouldn't be hanging around for Mordecai who she wasn't even dating anymore. I thought it'd be funny if she got together with Don. They both missed Mordecai and Rigby. They comforted each other in the sad times... But no-one in the writers room liked Don except me so that would never happen.” [3]
- This interview also states that Margaret advances in the news world, traveling around the world to report the news. But, she still keeps in touch with Mordecai, Eileen and Rigby.
