Madge presents herself as the ideal late 1960s housewife...conservatively and tastefully-dressed and groomed, with a very motherly demeanor.  But don't be fooled...underneath that clean-cut exterior beats the heart of a hardened criminal--one who relishes the excitement and adventure of an illicit and devious lifestyle!  She and her husband, Walter Nelson, have forged the perfect cover for their criminal activities in the seemingly clean-cut, middle-class nuclear family which they appear to be.  But each and every member of their family, from their older son Walter Jr., to their middle child, Tina, to their infant son Binky, and right down to the family cat, are villains, each with a criminal record (and each having served time in jail in New York State, apparently).  They drive around in the family station wagon, which bears New York license plates with the I.D. "Luv 2 Rob".

Madge is also pretty handy with a small bowie knife she keeps on her person.  She uses it for everything from a defensive weapon to a handy apple slicer.
