Biography
Mona first appeared in "Disclosure the Movie: The Musical!" when she became Missy Foreman-Greenwald's hormone monstress. Mona snuck up on Missy while she was singing in the shower and introduced herself. Mona convinced Missy to act more assertive toward Nick Birch and really go all out with sexually harassing him in the play. Missy initially feared this would make Lars (Missy's current boyfriend) jealous but Mona eventually got her to get over that. Sure enough, Lars got jealous just as Missy had feared. Later, Missy kissed Nick and started to fall in love with him, making Mona's manipulation of her sexuality work like a charm.
In "Super Mouth", Mona officially convinced Missy to break up with Lars and go out with her new love interest, Nick, instead. She pitched the idea of her breaking up with Lars, going out with Nick and lying about the timeline so that nobody would know that Missy had kissed Nick while she was still dating Lars. However, this plan failed and Missy was outed as a cheater.
In "The New Me", Mona briefly appeared during the recap song and although she had no dialogue, Missy sang about how great of a hormone monstress she was.
In "The Hugest Period Ever", Mona took a liking to Missy's cousins, Lena and Quinta and convinced Missy to start acting more like them, seeing this as a good way for her to embrace her inner bitch. Mona later claims that she abuses her grandmother via Munchhausen syndrome by proxy. An elderly female hormone monster named Celeste later appears and speaks with Mona, but when questioned by Missy, Mona clarifies that Celeste is not her relation and she keeps her own grandmother "much sicker".
In "A Very Special 9/11 Episode", Mona encourages Missy to stray from the field trip and hang out with DeVon so that she can further indulge in her African roots. She is very proud of Missy when she lashes out at Devin for insulting her hair and applauded her for her bravery when she cursed Devin out in front of the class.
In "Horrority House", Mona tries to get Missy to wear a sexy costume for Halloween but she refuses. Maury and Mona meet for the first time, and Maury immediately begins hitting on her - Mona tells him to fuck off, but he continues to flirt with her. Mona stands with Maury, Connie, and Rick, in front of a bookshelf while she describes an "escape room" that Connie identifies as an intervention for her alcoholism; Mona replies, "Well, I escaped". Maury accidentally activates a secret lever that causes the bookshelf to rotate and move the four monsters into another room - they are not seen again until the end of the episode and it is unknown what happened to them during that time.
Appearance
Mona is a daffodil-colored hormone monster with short cut bright cream hair that has faint yellow streaks in it. Like other female hormone monsters, she has two horns protruding from her head next to her ears. She has teal eyes, and vibrant taffy pink lips. She has a small tuft of tail, which she has the unique ability to control (similar to Connie's prehensile hair), and is able to extend and retract it. She also has grayish cedar fur on her body that covers her arms, legs, back and tail, and partially covers her breasts and areolas.
Personality
Mona is a sharp-tongued, crass, and slightly chaotic sex monster, as well as a part-time pyromanic. She's so much of a nutcase, that even other hormone monsters are frightened by her. She has a chaotic influence who is often seen holding a lighter in her hand. She wants her client to stop being a goody two-shoes little nice girl and start being a badass bitch like her.
