Mandy Park is Nick's girlfriend and Adam's babysitter in Disney's 1992 hit film, Honey, I Blew Up the Kid.

Role in the film

Mandy is a girl who frequents the water park that Nick works concessions at. As a result of seeing her often, Nick has developed a crush on her, though she doesn't feel the same way. One day, Nick's father Wayne hires her to babysit Nick's little brother Adam in order to spend some time with Nick, which she agrees to. However, when she arrives, she discovers Adam is now 7 feet tall, and faints at the sight.

Nick is forced to bind and gag her in order to ensure she doesn't panic and alert anybody. To get her to calm down, Nick reveals that Adam has started growing as a result of coming into contact with an experimental growth ray, and that Wayne and his wife Diane had gone off to get his father's shrink ray to restore him to normal. Unfortunately, Adam grows again to 14 feet tall, and escapes the house with Nick and Mandy in pursuit (after Nick promised to double Mandy's payment if she helped). However, they all get taken into custody by Dr. Charles Hendrickson and Clifford Sterling, only for Adam to grow again (due to passing through high voltage lines) and escape. He then places Nick and Mandy into his overall pocket after mistaking them for toys, and although they manage to escape into a yellow convertible, Adam puts them back in after mistaking it for a toy car.

Fortunately, Adam is successfully shrunken down via a plan devised by Wayne, Diane, and Clifford (who by this point has decided to help Wayne restore his son to normal). However, Nick and Mandy are accidentally shrunken down due to being in Adam's pocket. Wayne finds them shrunken the next morning, but decides to give them a few minutes before reversing the shrinkage. At this point, Nick and Mandy confess their feelings for one another and kiss.

It is unknown if Mandy continued dating Nick after the events of the film.
