We have Charlotte Pickles and her daughter Angelica of All Grown Up! have been kidnapped.
Charlotte Pickles (born October 14, 1957) is Angelica's somewhat insane, powerhouse, workaholic mother, and the wife of Drew Pickles. Charlotte can be loud, abrasive, and a bit rude, and is she is easily distracted by work, but tries to be a stern mother. She loves her daughter and wants her to be a strong, independent and beautiful woman like her. She is almost always seen talking on her cell phone to Jonathan, her assistant, or another business client. Angelica deeply loves and respects her mother, wanting to be just like her. She is voiced by Tress MacNeille.
CEO of a major corporation called Mega Corp, and is overworked. Even though Charlotte usually doesn't have much time for Angelica, and usually spends most of her time on the phone or working, she really does love Angelica. Even though Charlotte, like Drew, spoils Angelica, she's not a pushover like Drew tends to be, and it's been implied (and shown) that when Charlotte's properly focused on her parenting, she's the more stern parent and capable of actually disciplining Angelica without hesitating to do so, whereas Drew has a tendency to hesitate when trying to discipline their daughter.
- However, there have been times where Drew hasn't hesitated to discipline Angelica, such as Chuckie's Wonderful Life, Chuckie Grows, and the end of Curse of the Were-Wulf, to name a few.
Angelica Charlotte Pickles is the main antagonist of the series. While this is so, she acts more as an antihero in the films and often sides with the babies at the end, against the films' respective main villains. She is voiced by Cheryl Chase in both Rugrats and All Grown Up, and is among the series' original characters. She is a spoiled brat and the cousin of Tommy and Dil Pickles. In 2002, TV Guide declared Angelica Pickles 7th in their list of Top 50 Greatest Cartoon Characters of All Time. She is the arch-enemy of Tommy Pickles and the other Rugrats. Her middle name is 'Charlotte', meaning she is named after her mother, Charlotte. She claims to be 'the prettiest, most beautiful kid in the universe' (which she is). Angelica carries her favorite doll Cynthia (a parody of the popular Barbie franchise) around with her almost everywhere, and fills her room with Cynthia merchandise.
In the spin-off series All Grown Up!, 14-year-old Angelica's personality has clearly made some minor edits to itself as a part of Angelica's maturity; she now wears her hair down, goes after boys more often (in Rugrats, though, she was shown to have crushes on a few toddler boys), and has outgrown the habit of carrying Cynthia around with her all the time (although in one episode of All Grown Up!, Angelica desperately tried to get Cynthia back because Charlotte gave her away). Still, a few parts of her former personality remain: she's still very mean, spoiled, and bossy, but to a much lesser extent than she previously was. She and Susie are still rivals, but they're more like frenemies than actual enemies, but Angelica is obviously still very envious of Susie, mainly because of her being more talented than Angelica at most things (especially singing).
