Mrs. Glick is an elderly woman who resides in Springfield.
Biography
Mrs. Glick lives in the Simpsons' neighborhood. Bart met her when he was trying to earn money to buy a collector's item comic book. Mrs. Glick put Bart to work doing chores around her house, but because she paid him very poorly, he quickly grew to loathe her[1].
Doctor Hibbert confessed to once leaving his car keys inside her while operating [2]. She also tried to sell a candy dish for ninety dollars that she forcefully insisted could only be used for storing candy[3]. Mrs. Glick once took the heart donor ticket off her I.D., along with many other people around her[4].
Being an elderly woman, her sanity can be questioned at times. When residents of Springfield were at the Kwik-E-Mart stocking upon food for a hurricane, she grabbed Lisa's head, thinking she was a pineapple, and carried her on her shopping cart along with Ralph (whom she thought was a pumpkin). Ralph then revealed that Mrs. Glick planned on cooking them into a pie [5].
It is revealed that Mrs. Glick is a long-time friend of Mrs. Bellamy [6].
Behind the Laughter
Following her debut in the episode Three Men and a Comic Book, Mrs. Glick became a recurring minor character, often seen at the hospital or the Springfield Retirement Castle. In addition to minor speaking roles, she also lingers in the background of various episodes, often laughing toothlessly. Groundskeeper Willie once even made a remark about it, quoting "How come yer always around?!", frightening Mrs. Glick.
In her first appearance, Mrs. Glick was voiced by Cloris Leachman. In all her appearances since then, Mrs. Glick is voiced by Tress MacNeille.
