Presenting the big screen adventures of Gidget, the original queen of the Southern California beach scene.

Gidget goes to Rome: Gidget goes to Rome with boyfriend Moondoggie and their best friends. But then Gidget falls for an Italian dreamboat who is actually her father's wartime buddy, secretly keeping an eye on Gidget for him.

Gidget goes Hawaiian: Gidget is desperate when her parents make her go with them on vacation to Hawaii during the two weeks when her beloved Jeff, aka 'Moondoggie, ' will be home from college. When he suggests she go, Gidget wonders if he still cares for her. On the plane, she meets Abby, who advises her to forget about Moondoggie.
