"That little girl so desperate to win her father's love... You left her on the side of the road, and all these years I've been that little girl. Yearning for my papa to come back for me. Praying that one day he would see me and love me for who I am. Thank you, for coming to the shower. You gave me an amazing gift. You showed me that I'm not that scared little girl in that picture anymore. I am an adult woman, and I am happy in my own skin, and I am so fortunate that I am surrounded by people who value and cherish me. I finally understand I don't need you to see me, or get me, or to even like me. I don't need anything from you. I'm already good. Goodbye, papa."
— Maggie to her father

Detective Maggie Sawyer is a female Human who is a SCIS detective of the National City SCIS Department and a member of the Science SCIS. She is also the ex-fiancée of Alex Danvers.

Personality[]

Maggie is one of the few humans who does not have an anti-view on aliens in general; as she treats both humans and aliens alike with the same equal rights, while not as scientifically specializing as her ex-fiancée, Maggie has proven capable of keeping up with the extraterrestrial at her own pace, having discovered the existence of an alien bar before the D.E.O. did. Maggie also has a tough personality, but once you crack down her walls, she's a cinnamon roll, being very supportive of Alex Danvers as the latter gradually came to terms with being a lesbian. She once cheated on her ex-girlfriend Emily, but expressed extreme guilt over it, knowing that it was wrong and showing that she has a moral compass.

After Maggie's parents rejected her after she came out as gay, Maggie became closed off to those around her. She doesn't trust easily and doesn't like to talk about herself and her problems, mainly out of fear of being rejected for who she is. After she started dating Alex Danvers, the latter started to help her heal and overcome this fear of being rejected, and help her to be not closed off to those closest to her.

Maggie is calm and patient always maintaining her emotions. She is able to talk down bank robbers even after seventeen hours of negotiating. However, when her investigation was compromised by Supergirl's interference, she was seen losing her patience for the first time. Later on, when her girlfriend Alex Danvers is kidnapped and only has mere hours left before drowning, she compromises her beliefs and to help a criminal escape from prison in order to save Alex. When Supergirl intervenes, she expresses that she doesn't want to lose Alex, and was willing to do whatever it took to save her. In the end, Maggie returned Peter Thompson to prison.

According to Alex, Maggie likes guns and has a love for bonsai trees, as well as scotch.
