“I'll take...dare!”
―Becky Shorter[src]

Becky Shorter is one of Lisa's friends at Springfield Elementary School. As a background character, she is seen in a majority of student scenes while at school.

History

Despite being a background character, Becky has had a few small roles in the earlier seasons of the series. Most of these roles had involved Bart, hinting a possible crush.

The first time she spoke was at Ned Flanders' barbecue, when he announced the opening of his Leftorium store. Becky was shown playing a game of tag with Bart and a classmate of his[1].

She played another role at Lisa's sleepover, where she was dared by Janey to kiss Bart, which she eventually does [2].

It is revealed here that she wears braces (however, there are a few scenes where she is shown without braces). Bart is officially introduced to her by Milhouse, while signing her yearbook at the end of the term.

After he signed her book, she clasped it to her chest and walked happily away, stating, "He writes the way people talk!" [3].

Description

Becky's normal appearance in the show is her wearing a teal shirt, a teal skirt, long white socks, and teal Mary Janes. She has long blonde hair that is tied in a ponytail held by a teal bow. She also wears a blue nightie and blue slippers as shown during the episode "Flaming Moe's".
