Mork & Mindy[]
Collette appeared as Belk, the first person Mork and Mindy encounter on their arrival in the Stone Age while trying to escape through time from Joe Regalbuto's Kalnik. Belk is being pursued by two men from a different tribe, and Mork and Mindy's appearance, and especially Mork's use of his harmonica, help to save her from being abducted and chases the men off. Quasi workshipping Mork for the music that emanates from him, she takes them back to her own tribe to tell them what they've done, and tries to repay them with shelter and food.
