She made her first appearance when Mayor Davis called a meeting where after her introduction (with minor clapping) she explains that she came up with a plan to boost tourism for the city by creating a sixth lake for Michigan, which she will get her promoted to Over Secretary of Water Leisure and name it after her mother (since she didn't get her a gift). While amazing at first, Lincoln then pointed out that the sign for the Burpin' Burger is seen in the background of the new lake, As Joyce revealed that Royal Woods would be the new home for the lake, which will result in everyone being forced to move away and lose their homes and businesses, which she added that they will be paid to move away and a one-time discount for skiing on the lake when it's done.
After she sings about how Royal Woods in the only town in Michigan that is not popular as other towns in the state are, due to not having something special or unique to see, she announced that the demolition will begin in a few days, and even added that years from now, people will laugh about the idea, which she started to as she notices no one else is and left instead.
Later, as she is driving her car while telling her car toy dolphin Donna that once her plan come true, then not only will the governor approve her idea but her dream of being Over Secretary of Water Leisure will come true, she is stopped by Mayor Davis and Lincoln as she learns that the town as created the world largest Flippee, which will earn them a lot of tourism, meaning her plan to flood the town will not happen. Just then the giant Flippee began to act up as Flip revealed that instead of using syrup, he used expired gasoline, which combines with the additives Lisa added, resulted in the Giant Flippee exploding and cover some of the citizens in Flippee, followed by the cup crashing into Joyce's car, which made her angry and tells the town that the demolition crew will be here at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow (originally 10 until the cup broke her dolphin toy)
The next day Joyce arrived in town with a Bulldozer as she plans to destroy the dam, only to be stopped by Lincoln as he and the others came up with a last-ditch plan; reenacted a fake historic event that would make it look like Royal Woods does have history. After a musical number about the town and how King George III named the town, Joyce actually took the bait and believed the town does have history and decide to cancel the flooding, only to learn the truth as the crown that King George left was fake (it was actually one of Lola's Pageant Crowns) and plans to destroy the dam and flood the city.
As she and the demolition crew prepared to destroy the dam and flood Royal Woods, Lincoln and the other citizens sang a song about how Royal Woods is their home and how they experience the town in their lives, but Joyce didn't buy it and plans to continue the demolition regardless. However, the crew decide not to do it as told her to find another way to get her promotion. Now angrier then before, Joyce decided to destroy the dam herself and flood the town, despite all the citizens still around it, only to learn from Lola that Katherine Mulligan has been recording the whole thing on live television in HD, which caused Joyce try to pretend that she wasn't going to do it for real but then gets a call from the Over Secretary of Water Leisure (her boss) and learned she's been fired for trying to flood the town, which resulted in her screaming and refusing to take Todd's pitting.
With Joyce fired, Lake Gladys is officially canceled, and Royal Woods is safe. The citizens cheered for Lincoln saving the town and began to launch into a reprise of their ode to Royal Woods. Joyce stopped them as she didn't want to hear them sing and left off-screen, and so the town finished the reprise anyway.
It's unknown that she would someday get revenge on Lincoln, his family and the townspeople of Royal Woods.
In
her first appearance, Joyce is shown to be eccentric and vivacious
woman who wanted to help boost tourism for the city but in reality, she
is shown to be a bit sadistic and heartless as she plans to destroy
Royal Woods by destroying the dam and flooded the city. When her team
quits while remembering their own towns, she decides to destroy the dam
herself, despite everyone in town being right in front of it, which
would most likely result in huge casualties and injuries, showing no
regard for their safety. However, she is shown to have a soft spot for
her mother as she wanted to name the lake after her mother.
