I have the impression that Maggie is smarter than the average baby. So I have a few questions:

  • Is she literate?
  • Has her IQ ever been measured?
I am only a mirage.

My opinion is that Maggie is a genius, even more so than Lisa. Her refusal to speak is rebellion. She has Lisa's brains and Bart's disposition.

  • She masterminded a baby prison break in the day care center.
  • She became part of a bear family.
  • She ran away looking for Marge when Marge went to the retreat.

When we see Maggie grown up, she looks rebellious and surly. Rather than adopt Lisa's volunteerism, she became a social dropout.

Well, Maggie's IQ *IS* higher than Lisa's, according to an upcoming episode where Simon, from American Idol, plays a daycare provider whom takes care of Maggie at a school for gifted babies. Also, if you want to see a surly, older Maggie, check out my site with her as a 13yr old here: www.maggieanderic.com .

I also have a question about Maggie...

Did the show ever explain why "She doesn't get along with the other babies?"

Nope. It might be one of those things where the audience gets the fun of imagining the reason for itself.

I liked tonight's episode because of Maggie's large amount of involvement in (what there was of) the plot. She doesn't get nearly enough screen time in my opinion. Just about everything she does is hilarious.
