Martha puts up a brave front of being all right with the mayor's cheating, but on one occasion she revealed her true feelings. Marge Simpson was visiting the Quimby house and talking to Martha in the mayor's home office.

Joe spoke at the beginning of the party to say the party was starting. At the same time, his wife, Martha, tried to call Joe, and he asked people to behave as if it were a conference in Zurich. Martha then came next to Quimby, and he said that he was disappointed and had forgotten that she had come with him.[3]

Behind the Laughter

Like Sarah Wiggum and Bernice Hibbert, Martha is one of the less notable and more sane characters on the show. Also like Mrs. Wiggum and Mrs. Hibbert, Martha plays the role of the quiet housewife, the wife to a corrupted husband.

Martha often wears a pink suit and pillbox hat, a style similar to the one that Jacqueline Kennedy made famous.
