Mrs. Rabbit is a character on ABC's Once Upon a Time in Wonderland. She débuts in the eighth episode and is voiced by special guest star Whoopi Goldberg.
Mrs. Rabbit is based on Bayard's wife from the live-action Disney film Alice in Wonderland.
History
Mrs. Rabbit lives a small, but comfortable home with her husband, Percy, in Wonderland with their two children. They receive Alice and Cyrus as guests late in the evening after the girl has been injured and needs immediate medical help. Mrs. Rabbit begins making a brew to heal Alice. Since the children are asleep, she asks her husband as well as Cyrus to keep their voices down. Later, Alice makes a near full recovery. ("Home")
By the Red Queen's machinations, Mrs. Rabbit and her children are kidnapped by her as a way to force the White Rabbit to obey her every command. In fear of his family's lives, he follows all the Red Queen's commands. She and her children are hidden away in an old abandoned wagon where they make some semblance of a home under a cloth covered table. They stay there until being discovered by Knave, and he persuades them it's safe to leave. They briefly reunite with the White Rabbit outside. For safety reasons, Mrs. Rabbit takes her two children to her mother's house while her husband continues on a journey with Alice and Knave. ("Home")
Wounded by Jafar, Cyrus is rushed to the White Rabbit's house by his mother, Amara, and Alice. Mrs. Rabbit suggests using willow root sap to close Cyrus' injury, but Amara refuses. Surprised at the woman's response, she talks about her own long-term experience in healing, but promptly approves when Amara uses magic to heal Cyrus. Unhappily, the White Rabbit complains about the bloody mess on the house carpet, though Mrs. Rabbit tries to calm him down. Alice, Amara, Cyrus and the White Rabbit team up to defeat Jafar, who has recently broken the laws of magic. The sorcerer is eventually cursed by the well guardian, Nyx, and becomes a genie. As a result, Jafar is stripped out of his former powers and the spell he used to remove restrictions on magic is undone. With Wonderland saved from tyranny, Alice and Cyrus leave for England. On the day of the couple's wedding, Mrs. Rabbit attends the joyous ceremony along with her husband. ("And They Lived...")

Trivia

Disney
- The White Rabbit is forced to work for the Red Queen because his wife and children have been imprisoned by the queen and he fears for their lives if he does not obey. This is similar the bloodhound Bayard in the live-action film Alice in Wonderland, who is forced to the Red Queen's bidding because his wife and pups have been imprisoned by her and he fears that they will be injured if he does not obey her. Later, the White Rabbit's family is freed and the family is reunited, just like what happens to Bayard in the movie. ("Home")
