Background
Agnes treats her grown son like a child, mocking him at every chance, and she resents Edna Krabappel for his feelings toward her. Many people in Springfield, the Simpsons among them, are afraid of her. She has been married four times and has dated Comic Book Guy and Mr. Burns. Her first name was only revealed in season 7's Bart the Fink; until then she was 'Mrs. Skinner'. In The Principal and the Pauper she rejects the real Seymour Skinner, partly because, unlike Armin Tamzarian, he does not need her.
