Overview

"The Valley, 1986. Debbie, a way cool teenage brainiac, lands a rad internship with Dr. Ophelia Glutz, a robotics genius. Debbie's psyched to help her build a bodacious robot, but they need an organic brain to power the mechanical dude. Meanwhile, Debbie has eyes for hunky Chip Gordon, who's not too bright but is super sweet. A mega freaky surfing accident kills Chip, so Debbie swipes his brain and puts it in the robot dude's dome. Dr. Glutz gets super cheesed ‘cause Chip's lame brain makes the robot a dweeb, so she plans to erase his memories. Debbie saves Robo-Chip, but Dr. Glutz catches up with them and now wants to use Debbie's smarter brain instead! The lab totally blows up in the ensuing brouhaha. It's a major bummer that Robo-Chip is toast, but Debbie's able to repair him, and she totally gets into CalTech, so yay!" -- Abstract
