    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Most of the "Teenage Diplomats" use their own names as the character names. The exceptions are the pivotal roles played by Kathy Dunn (Candy Hull the American), Lynne Sue Moon (Mai Ling the Chinese), and Gina Trikonis (Natasha the Russian).
    • Goofs
      The long shots of the school bus on the mountain road, both in the early scenes of it leaving the school and the later ones of its returning, show only two or three people in the bus, even though in the interior shots the bus is crowded with all the girls.
    • Quotes
      • Wally Sanders: I want to turn you over and spank you until my hand falls off.
      • Candace Hull - USA: Oh, Wally!
      • Wally Sanders: Kitten!

    FAQ1

    • In the U.S. version during the pre-credit sequence, Candy is driving the bus, but in releases in other parts of the world (England, Sweden, Germany, and others), different girls get to drive. Why?
