RAYYeah. But what a ride.

Weaver Hall, Institute for Advanced Theoretical ResearchDANA goes in.

LabDANA is telling her story to DR. EGON SPENGLER.

DANA... went right out in the middle of traffic, and I started really running after it. And then it just suddenly stopped, right in the middle of the street.

EGONMm-hmm. And did anyone else see this happen?

DANAWell, sure, hundreds of people. Egon, I didn't imagine this.

EGONI'm not saying you did. It's just in science we always look for the simplest explanation.

SPENGLER'S ASSISTANTWe're ready, Dr. Spengler.

EGONGood. We'll start with the negative calibration.

DANAWhat are you working on, Egon?

EGONI'm trying to determine whether human emotions actually affect the physical environment. It's a theory Ray and I had when we were still Ghostbusters.ARGUING COUPLE is inside a room, yelling and being generally angry

DANACan they see us?

EGONNo. They think they're here for marriage counseling. We've kept them waiting for two and a half hours and I've been gradually increasing the temperature in the room. It's up to ninety-five degrees at the moment. Now my assistant is asking them if they'd mind waiting another half hour.Man is very angry. Bangs his head against the wall. EGON is checking out his readings.Oh, good. Very good. Very, very nice.

DANASo, Egon, what do you think?

EGONExcellent. Just excellent.to his assistantWe'll do the happiness index next.

DANAI mean, about the carriage.

EGONWell, I'd like to bring Ray in on this, if you don't mind.

DANASure! Whatever you think... but not Venkman.

EGONOh, no.

DANADo you ever see him?

EGONOccasionally.

DANAHow is he these days?

EGONPeter? Oh, he was borderline for a while. Then he crossed the border.

DANADoes he ever mention me?

EGONNo.runs a meter over her

DANAWell, we didn't part on very good terms, and we sort of lost track of each other after I got married.

SPENGLER'S ASSISTANTWe're ready for the affection test.

EGONGood, send in the puppy, please.An adorable puppy is given to GIRL WITH PUPPY.

DANAI thought of getting in touch with him after my marriage ended, but- aw. Isn't that sweet?watches GIRL WITH PUPPYI appreciate your doing this.

EGONTry not to worry.

DANAHere's my phone number- you'll call me?

EGONYes.

DANAI'd rather you didn't mention any of this to Peter, if you don't mind.

EGONNo, I won't, I won't.

DANAThanks.kisses him goodbye

EGONto his assistantLet's see what happens when we take away the puppy.

TV studioDR. PETER VENKMAN is chatting with his two guests just before his show, "World of the Psychic with Dr. Peter Venkman", begins taping.

PETERHi! Welcome back to World of the Psychic. I'm Peter Venkman. I'm chatting with my guest, author, lecturer and psychic Milton Anglund. Milt, your new book is called "The End of the World". Now, can you tell us when it's gonna be or do we have to buy the book?

MILTONWell, I predict that the world will end at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve.

PETERThis year?

MILTONMm-hmm.

PETERWell, that's cutting it a little bit close, isn't it! I mean- just from a sales point of view! I mean, Your book is just coming out, you're not going to see any paperback sales for at least a year, it'll be at least another year before you know whether you've got that mini-series or movie of the week kind of possibilities- I mean, just devil's advocate, Miltie! Shouldn't you have said, "Hey, the world's gonna end in 1992!" or better yet, 1994!

MILTONDr. Venkman, Dr. Venkman, this is not some money-making scheme, all right! I have a strong psychic belief-does psychic mumbo-jumbo with his finger and forehead- that the world will end on New Year's Eve.

PETERWell, for your sake I hope you're right, okay, but I think my other guest may disagree with you. Elaine, now you had another date in mind?

ELAINEAccording to my source, the end of the world will be on February 14th in the year 2016.

PETERValentine's Day- bummer. Where'd you get your date, Elaine?

ELAINEI received this information from an alien. As I told my husband: It was in the Paramus Holiday Inn. I having a drink at the bar, alone, and this alien approached me-PETER stares off into space- he started talking to me, he bought me a drink and then I think he must have used some kind of a ray or a mind control device, because he forced me to follow him to his room, and that's where he told me about the end of the world.

PETERSo your alien had a room at the Holiday Inn in Paramus?

ELAINEIt might have been a room on the spacecraft made up to look like a room at the Holiday Inn. I can't be sure about that, Peter.

PETERgetting upOf course not. And that is the whole problem with aliens, is you just can't trust them. Occasionally you meet a nice one, Starman, E.T. But usually they turn out to be some kind of big lizard! That's all the time we've got for this week on World of the Psychic. Next week, though- (gimme Ira).someone hands him a shaven catHairless pets. Weird!gives the cat backUntil then, this is Peter Venkman, saying:pretends to send a psychic message- then laughsSee you then! Bye.

Backstage

PETERNorman, where do you find these people? Weren't we supposed to have the telekinetic guy who bends the spoons?

NORMAN THE PRODUCERHe canceled. This is the best we could do on such short notice. Look, no respected psychic will come on the show! They think you're a fraud.

PETERI am a fraud.sees MAYORMr. Mayor! Lenny! Lenny? It's Pete Venkman!JACK HARDEMEYER pushes him away

HARDEMEYERCan I help you?

PETERYeah, get your hand off me. Thank you! I'm an old friend of the mayor's. I wanted to say hello and give him a kiss.

HARDEMEYERI'm Jack Hardemeyer. I'm the mayor's assistant. I know who you are, Dr. Venkman. I just don't see any ghosts anywhere.pretends to look for ghosts

PETERWell, that's why I wanted to talk to His Highness. See, we did a little job for the city a while back and got stiffed on the bill by some bureaucratic bookworm like yourself.

HARDEMEYERLook, you stay away from the mayor. He's running for governor next fall and the last thing we need is for him to be associated with two-bit frauds and publicity hounds like you and your friends.leaves

PETERYou know, I'm a voter!... Aren't you supposed to lie to me and kiss my butt?

DANAWell, I can't today. I have an appointment- in fact, I'd better go!starts to leave

Outside courthouseMorning.

JUDGEBefore we begin this trial I want to one thing very clear. The law does not recognize the existence of ghosts. I don't believe in them either. Don't wanna hear a lot of malarkey about goblins and spooks and demons. We're gonna stick to the facts in this case and leave the ghost stories to the kiddies, understood?

WINSTONWow. Sounds like a pretty open-minded guy.

EGONYeah, they call him The Hammer.

RAYWhat can we do? It's all in the hands of our lawyer now.LOUIS TULLY, with lots of books, enters.

LOUISI think you guys are making a big mistake. I mostly do tax laws and probate stuff occasionally. I got my law degree at night school!

I was stuck in an elevator for two hours and I had to make the whole time. But I don't blame them! Because one time I turned into a dog and they helped me. Thank you.

EGONVery good, Louis. Short but pointless.

PROSECUTOR examining CON ED SUPERVISOR.

CON ED SUPERVISORYeah, that's the stuff, all right. Your Honor, I've been working underground for Con Ed for twenty-seven years. I never saw anything like this in my life. Whatever's down there, they must have put it there.

RAYNo, we didn't!

JUDGEShut up!Bangs his gavel. The slime bubbles.

LOUIS examining PETER. PETER is feeding LOUIS words.

LOUISSo you were just trying to help out a friend, who was scared of what was happening to her, when you're scared, there was no evil intended, no malice, because you live here and when you live in a place and you love it like you do you don't want nothing bad to happen, because it'll never happen again, it's an isolated incident, it's a one shot deal-

PROSECUTORObjection, Your Honor!

JUDGEKeep that up, mister, I'll find you in contempt.slime bubbles

PETERI'm truly sorry, Your Honor.

PROSECUTORI'll ask you again, Dr. Venkman, why were you digging the hole? And please remember you're under oath.

PROSECUTORSo what you're saying is that the world of the supernatural is your exclusive province?

JANOSZNo, actually, I am preparing this portrait for our new Romantic exhibition. Yes. This is Prince Vigo, the ruler of Carpathian Moldavia.

PETERimitating VIGO's poseBit of a sissy, isn't he?

JANOSZHe was a very powerful magician, Dr. Venkman, and a genius in many ways.

DANAHe was also a lunatic and a genocidal madman. I hate this painting. I've felt uncomfortable ever since it came up from storage.

PETERWell, you're probably feeling what Vigo's feeling. Carpathian kitten loss! He's missed his kitten!grabs some paintWe'll just put one in here by the castle.

EGONMost interesting, Ray. Remember that painting Venkman mentioned? Well, I ran the name 'Vigo the Carpathian' through the Occult Reference-Net. Look what came up.they read a computer screen

RAYOoh... Nice ugly history. Think there's a connection between this Vigo character and the-slime bubbles- slime?

EGONIs the atomic weight of cobalt 58.9?

PETERHi. Come on in. This is my place.

DANASo how are we going to handle the sleeping arrangements?

PETERWell, what's best for me is if I lie on my side like this, and you spoon up beside me, your arm draped over me. If we do it the other way-rolls over- I get your hair caught in my throat and I choke in the night.

DANAHow about you on the sofa and me and the baby in the bed?

PETERIt's a way to go.

PETERYou find anything at Dana's?

RAYNah, nothing but some mood slime residue around the bathtub. But I did get something on that Vigo character you mentioned. Found it in Leon Zundiger's "Magicians, Martyrs and Madmen". Dig that.

EGONVigo the Carpathian. Born 1505, died 1610.

PETERA hundred and five years old. He hung in there, didn't he?

RAYAnd he didn't die of old age, either. He was poisoned, stabbed, shot, hung, stretched, disemboweled, drawn and quartered.

PETEROuch.

WINSTONI guess he wasn't too popular at the end.

EGONNo, not exactly a man of the people. Also known as Vigo the Cruel, Vigo the Torturer, Vigo the Despised and Vigo the Unholy.

PETERWasn't he also Vigo the Butch?

RAYAnd dig this! There was a prophecy, just before his head died. His last words were: "Death is but a door, time is but a window. I'll be back!"

EGONNo, we analyzed the photos you took of Vigo. The spectrogram shows a river of slime flowing behind it.

RAYThe same one I saw underground. Now we're going to the subway and sewer system to see if we can trace the source of the flow.

EGONYeah, come on. Change your clothes. We'll wait for you.

WINSTONYeah. Egon thinks there might even be a tremendous breeding surge in the cockroach population.

DANAGood, good. Well, I'll just give him a look-see.

LOUISSo you think we should go?

JANINEGee, I don't know. I don't think we should leave her alone.

LOUISYou're right. Let's stay.jump on the couch

Gracie MansionMAYOR enters. The Ghostbusters greet him.

PETER, RAY, EGON, WINSTONLenny... big man!

MAYORGhostbusters.

WINSTONMr. Mayor?offers his hand- it is refused

MAYORWhat is this, a slumber party?HARDEMEYER laughs. The Ghostbusters all talk at once.Look, I don't wanna hear anything about it. You've got two minutes. Make it good.

RAYWell, first of all, Mr. Mayor, it's a great pleasure to see you again, and we'd just like to say that almost 50% of us voted for you in the last election.

MAYORI appreciate that.

PETERI'm just sorry we always have to meet under these circumstances.

RAYMr. Mayor, we are here tonight because a psychomagnotheric slime flow of immense proportions is building beneath the city.

MAYORPsycho-what?

EGONPsychomagnotheric.

PETERBig word. Big word.

EGONNegative human emotions are materializing in the form of a viscous, psychoreactive plasm with explosive supernormal potential.

MAYORDoes anybody speak English here?

WINSTONYeah. Your Honor, see, what we're trying to tell you is like, all the bad feelings, all the hate, the anger and vibes of this city is turning into the sludge! Now, I didn't believe it at first either, but we just went for a swim in it and we ended up almost killing each other!

HARDEMEYERThis is insane! I mean, do we really have to listen to this?

PETERCan't you stop your lips from flapping for two little minutes?! Lenny, have you been out on the street lately? Do you know how weird it is out there? We've taken our own head count. There seem to be three million completely miserable assholes living in the tri-state area!

HARDEMEYEROh, please.

PETERI beg your pardon. Three million and one.

HARDEMEYERHey!

RAYAnd what budgie-brain here doesn't realize is that if we don't do something fast, this whole place is gonna blow like a frog on a hot plate.

HARDEMEYERYeah, right.

MAYORWhat am I supposed to do? Go on television and tell ten million people they have to be nice to each other? Being miserable and treating other people like dirt is every New Yorker's God-given right. Your two minutes are up! Good night, gentlemen.leaves- they call to him- he leaves

PETEROh... the Times is gonna be interested in this... And you know the polls are gonna be down!

WINSTON"Mayor Hides Slime"...

RAY"Times Square Slime"?

EGONSlime Square?

RAYYeah, Slime Square.

HARDEMEYERWhoa, whoa, whoa! Fine, fine, fine. Now, before you go running off to the newspapers with this, would you consider telling this slime business to some of our people downtown?

PETERIt's gotta be done right away.

Parkview HospitalThe Ghostbusters are committed.

RAYVigo's gonna come back! The whole city's in danger! The whole state, the whole world! All we wanna do is help!

HARDEMEYERto PSYCHIATRISTThe mayor wants them kept under strict observation for the next few days. We think they're seriously disturbed and potentially dangerous.

PSYCHIATRISTWell, we'll do whatever's necessary.

HARDEMEYERThank you, doctor.

Manhattan Museum of ArtThe room has become a shrine to VIGO. Circles of candles.

JANOSZI await the word, Vigo!

VIGOI, Vigo, the Scourge of Carpathia-

JANOSZI know. You've told me this. The Scourge.

VIGO- the sorrow of Moldavia-

JANOSZSorrows. I've heard all of this, yes.

VIGO- command you.

JANOSZCommand me, lord.

VIGOThe season of evil begins with the birth of the new year.

JANOSZGood!

VIGOBring me the child that I might live again!

JANOSZYes... Lord Vigo? I was wondering- this woman Dana is fine and strong. Now, if I was to bring the baby, could I have that woman?...

VIGOSo be it. On this day of darkness she will be ours. Wife to you and mother to me.

JANOSZjumps up and spins aroundYes! Thank you, lord! Thank you!

PETER's apartmentDANA, LOUIS and JANINE watch TV.

JANINEIs, like, she the killer or what?

LOUISNo. That's Rita Hayworth. She was married to Citizen Kane while they were doing this thing. Then right after they finished, she dumped him for some polo player. I don't why beautiful girls love horses so much. Do you love horses?

JANINENo.

DANAYou know, you really don't have to stay. I'm sure Peter will be back soon.

LOUISOh, we don't mind. Can you see okay?

DANAYep.A window opens in PETER's room.DANA feels wind- goes to check on OSCAR. He is not in bed.Oscar? Oh!She sees him on the ledge.Oh God! Oscar! Louis! It's Oscar! Oscar...

LOUISseeing OSCAR on the ledgeCall 911 right now!DANA crawls across the ledge to OSCAR. JANOSZ comes out of the sky, puts OSCAR in a baby carriage and flies away.

DANAOscar... oh, no... no, no, no... No!

LOUISThat was a ghost!

DANANo, no, that was Janosz. He took him...

JANINEWhat's happening?

LOUISWhat should we do?

JANINEWhere's the baby?

DANAThe museum...puts her coat on

LOUISWhere are you going?

DANAI've got to get my baby!she leaves

LOUISWe gotta find the guys.

Parkview Hospital

RAYAs I explained before, we think the spirit of a 17th century Moldavian tyrant is alive and well in a painting at the Manhattan Museum of Art.

PSYCHIATRISTMm-hmm. And are there any other paintings in the museum with bad spirits in them?

EGONYou're wasting valuable time! He's drawing strength from a psychomagnotheric slime flow that's been collecting under the city.

PSYCHIATRISTYes, tell me about the slime.

WINSTONIt's very potent stuff. We made a toaster dance with it.

PSYCHIATRISTA toaster.

RAYAnd a bathtub tried to eat his friend's baby.

PSYCHIATRISTA bathtub?

PETERDon't look at me, I think these people are completely nuts.

DANAOscar... sweetheart... oh, oh... I thought I'd lost you... never see you again... oh, baby.

JANOSZHello, Dana. I thought that you might come.

DANAYou stay away from us, Janosz. I mean it.

JANOSZOh, don't worry, he will not be harmed! He has been chosen to be the vessel of the spirit of Vigo! And you will be the mother of the ruler of the world!... Doesn't that sound nice?

DANANo. It sounds ludicrous. You stay away from him. I mean it.

JANOSZWell, I don't think we have choice here. Take a look- it's not Gainsborough's 'Blue Boy', there. Heh, heh. He is Vigo!

DANAI don't care who he is! You're not going to take my baby!flies into a cage- OSCAR goes to the altar againOscar... Oh, you bastard!

HARDEMEYERHave you tried dynamite?

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICIALWe've tried everything.

MAYORenteringWhat the hell is going on? It's pandemonium out there!

HARDEMEYERYes, I know, we're working on it!

MAYORGreat. While you're working on it I'm going down in history as the mayor who let New York get sucked down into the tenth level of hell. All right, we've got no choice. Call the Ghostbusters.

HARDEMEYERWait! Now, I'm sure there's another way.

MAYORJack, I spent an hour last night in my bedroom talking to Fiorello LaGuardia and he's been dead for forty years. Now where are the Ghostbusters?

HARDEMEYERUh... they're not available.

MAYORWhat do you mean, they're not available?

HARDEMEYERWell, I had them committed to the psychiatric ward at Parkview Hospital.

MAYORYou what?!

HARDEMEYERThey were threatening to go to the press! I was protecting your interests!

MAYOROh yeah?!

HARDEMEYERUh-huh!

MAYORWell, you can stop protecting my interests. You have exactly three minutes to clear out. You're fired!

HARDEMEYERBut the election! You're making a big mistake, Mr. Mayor!

MAYORHarry! Remove this man from the building. And get me the Ghostbusters!

MAYOR'S AIDEMr. Mayor? Mr. Mayor? Come take a look at this. Wow.sky is filled with bolts of dark energyHave you ever seen anything like that before?

MAYORSomebody get me the Ghostbusters.

Parkview HospitalThe Ghostbusters suit up.

LOUISAnd he took the baby into the carriage, and it levitated away!

PETERWhat'd Dana do? Where'd she go?

LOUISI don't know. She said she was going to the museum to get the baby back! And there was an eclipse, and the whole town went dark, and everybody's nuts!

RAYIt all fits! Vigo wants in on the 21st century. He needs a human body to inhabit. Little Oscar must be it!

WINSTONYeah, and I bet we're the only ones who can do anything about it, right?

RAYYou bet we are!

Restoration room

JANOSZSoon it will be midnight and the city will be mine and Vigo's. Well... mainly Vigo's. Oh, Dana, you and I have this terrific opportunity! To make the best of this relationship!

DANAWe don't have a relationship.

JANOSZI know!... Marry me, Dana. Together we will raise Vigo as our son! And let me tell you something here, there are many perks in being the mother of a living god. Sure we could get you a magnificent apartment, car, free parking...opens her cageMany marriages begin with a certain amount of distance. And I think that perhaps you and I could maybe learn to... love each other?

DANAYes, I could learn.

RAYLet's cook!they blast, to no avail, and stop blastingSave 'em!

PEOPLE IN CROWDboos and hissesC'mon!Aw, c'mon Ghostbusters!

EGONThat slime mold is pulsing with evil. It would take a tremendous amount of positive energy to crack that shell and I seriously doubt there's enough goodwill left in this town to do it.

RAYYou know, I just can't believe things have gotten so bad in this city that there's no way back. I mean, sure, it's dirty, it's crowded, it's polluted, it's noisy and there's people all around who'd just as soon step on your face as look at you. But come on! There's got to be a few sparks of sweet humanity left in this burned-out burg and we just have to figure out a way to mobilize it.

EGONHe's right. We need something that everyone in this town can get behind, we need... a symbol!

RAYSomething that appeals to the best in each and every one of us.

EGONSomething good.

WINSTONSomething decent.
