Mother Crumpet

142 Crumpet children

Uncle Hurry (brother-in-law)

Aunt Harried (sister-in-law)

**Ma** is a main character in *The Crumpets* and a supporting character in *Teen Crumpets*. She is voiced by Melissa Chambers in English (seasons one and two) and Emmanuelle Hamet in French.

Ma is an intelligent inventor at home who is the mother of 142 children, including the infant Lil'One who is highly devoted to her. She is married to her loving gardener husband Pa. While being an outstanding builder of machines, her creations usually run amok. She is often more aggressive than her husband and can get careless at her children and machines.

## Biography

Ma married Pa some two decades before the events of the original series. In the season two episode "Mum's Double", it's been 1097 Tuesdays since their marriage.

Her loving relationship with Pa is so prominent, it's accentuated in the show's opening animation. They frequently express their happiness from being together. The show also points that they enjoy cuddling in their bed in their Do Not Disturb Bedroom. According to a character description, their working relationship is akin to Ma building the fridge and Pa filling it with food. Their prioritization on their love, however, isn't usually helpful in regards to nurturing and monitoring their children. She can be belligerent to her husband, children, and Granny if they're unruly.

She invents a range of numerous machines in the course of the show. Some, including a lie detector and an electronic telepathy machine, are successful. But many others break down or fail their purpose, such as a 3D printer cloner that distorts its input and a robot clone of herself that substitutes her unreliably. As in the case of her 3D printer cloner failing, she can develop sadness or hopelessness from such malfunctions.

Her dress contains a door to her "tummy hatch". This is a space that her children, including Li'l One and Pfff, like to occupy. Li'l One loves to stay inside the tummy hatch, but gets annoyed when his siblings do so. The tummy hatch malfunctions in "Croco-Deal" and "Gentlemanly Modified Organism".

In the *Teen Crumpets* episodes, she declined in importance but is sometimes a supporting character. This also means her inventions have less focus while they're not completely absent. The inventions of Cordless, one of the main characters in *Teen Crumpets*, are more prominent instead. Li'l One continues to admire her as well but he ceased hostility towards Pa.

## Trivia
