Oh, creepy girl...
Lyle Waggoner's a total jerk
Second only to Tommy Kirk
Could you find it in your heart
To love a bot like me?
That fishy story you tell
Always makes me sleepy
But that's just what I get
For dating a girl that's creepy!
My creepy girl...

Oh, 'C' is for that feeling of uncertainty, for not quite knowing what ethnic group you're from.
'R' is for the gifts you give me every time you smile.
The first 'E' is for...uh...well, I don't really know,
But the second 'E' is really a grammatical thing, 'cause otherwise it would be 'Crepy Girl' and where would THAT leave us?
The 'P' is definitely not for platonic.
And 'Y'? Because I love you.

My creepy girl!

Oh what are you creepy girl? Are you French, Italian or one of those swarthy Gypsy types? Heh heh!
Well, your accent suggests a Romance language, but I can't be sure.
But we can definitely rule out a Germanic language.
But it's okay, I'm a Bot without a country.
All I know is that I love you and I want to shout it from the mountaintops!
Uh, but, I'd have to get back down to Earth and actually climb a mountain.
Or they could just drop me off on a mountain...I don't care! That would be okay.
Because I just...need...you!

My creepy girl
Won't you be mine?
I'll give you scrolls and fish and Tinkertoys and wine.
I'll ditch these guys if you'll be my creepy girl
Be mine...before movie sign...Ohh hooo...ooooohhh...hoooooh....

Not the worst movie they've done - but DEFINITELY the cheesiest! Thanks for the memory!

Why is Duct Tape like The Force?

Funny thing is, Creepy Girl is actually Swedish (at least the actress is), and Swedish is a Germanic language. I thought her accent was pretty obvious, but maybe that's because I'm Swedish too.

So the first 'E' could be for Sweden.

Yep, Ulla Stromstedt was Swedish. She was a regular on the TV show Flipper, where she played Ulla Norstrand, the sexy blonde marine biologist.

I thought the producers of Catalina Caper missed an opportunity, because, given that there's scuba diving in this movie, and that Ulla did some diving in several episodes of Flipper, they should have had her diving in this movie.

She may not have done actual diving in the movie, but when she talks to Don on the boat, she says, "I dove into the sea and began swimming underwater."

BTW, does anyone else think that she had a Tracy Turnblad hairdo?

You laugh at me because I'm different, but I laugh at you because you're all the same.

Nah, lots of girls had flip hairdos back then. She lacked the blonde bangs of Tracy Turnblad.

<<She lacked the blonde bangs of Tracy Turnblad. >>

Which is ironic, because in real life, Ulla Stromstedt was a blonde. Or at least she had blonde hair in most of her other roles (eg Flipper, Hogan's Heroes, etc). She was Swedish, so I guess that would make sense.

I still say they should have found an excuse to put her in a wetsuit in this movie. Would have nice if they had used her natural hair color, too, but oh well.
