Mickey tries to keep Sabrina and her boyfriend from having unprotected sex. She first tries to come on to him to get him to cheat so that Sabrina will break up with him. When that doesn’t work, Mickey decides to trick her into thinking she got pregnant in order to teach her a lesson, but it backfires and Sabrina’s boyfriend proposes.

Masculine Qualities:

  1. Willing to take risks
    • Mickey was not afraid to hit on Sabrina’s boyfriend by luring him to her room to try to make him cheat
    • drugged Sabrina so she would get sick to fake morning sickness
    • bought fake positive pregnancy tests
  2. Act as a leader
    • Mickey got Alba to help her plan the fake pregnancy and acting as the ringleader

Feminine Qualities:

  1. Eager to soothe hurt feelings
    • once Mickey saw how upset Sabrina was about “ruining her life”, she immediately felt bad and admitted it was fake (even though she was the one who innitially hurt her feelings)

In S1E3, Mickey’s portrayal is more masculine, so not stereotypical.
