[Janine] And this is the storage facility,

and you don't wanna
touch anything down here.

If something happens,
call Ray or Winston, not Peter.

-Got it.
-OK.

I'll show you where the bathroom is.
Come on.

You really this thing
will open a dimensional gate?

That's the theory.

It'll act as a two-way conduit
to the supernatural world.

Sounds pretty nasty, if you ask me.

Yeah.

Ah!

A-ha.

[speaking gibberish]

Huh?

[speaking gibberish]

Oh, no.

[grunting]

Ooh.

[continues speaking gibberish]

Wow.

[speaking gibberish]

[Janine] Egon, are you ready to go?

How did I ever let Janine talk me
into going to visit her family for dinner?

Well, come on Egon,
it'll do you good to get out.

Yeah, they say travel is broadening.

We're only going to Canarsie, Peter.

Well, it's practically a foreign country.

Guys, this is Louise
from the temporary agency.

[gasps]

Well, hello. I am Peter Venkman.

Uh, Dr. Peter Venkman. I'm a scientist.

Hello, Dr. Venkman.

[speaking gibberish]

Let me get you some coffee, Louise.

Argh!

Ray, this pot has gone haywire.

That's probably just a short.
I'll fix it later.

Let's go, Egon.

Uh, maybe I should stay
and help Ray fix the coffee pot.

[speaking gibberish]

[laughs]

[speaking gibberish]

[speaking gibberish]

[gasps]

[laughing]

[screams]

[Slimer speaking gibberish]

I really don't know
if I'm ready to meet your family, Janine.

[doorbell buzzing]

What worries me is weather my family
is ready to meet you, Egon.

Janine, and this must be Egon. Come in.

Ugh.

[gasps]

Hmm. Nothing's seems wrong.

What the...

Ow!

Peter! Winston!

There's a class-5 focused
individual miniature,

total plasmic manifestation
on the kitchen counter.

Say what?

An imp, an imp.
There's an imp in the kitchen.

Is there really a ghost in the kitchen?

Hey, not to worry, we're professionals.

[screams]

[laughing]

Why you little...

[screams]

Got you.

[laughing]

[gasps]

[laughing]

Ugh.

[blows raspberry]

Whoa!

Oh, great. Some people
get c*ck, we get imps.

[chattering]

[Janine] ...talk about and everything,
and I go, you know...

Hmm.

What are you doing?

Adding this to my collection
of spores, molds and fungus.

Ugh.

I think I might add him
to my collection too.

[squeaking]

I've got a trap. [grunts]

[Peter] Ow!

[speaking gibberish]

Thank you, Ray.

I don't know what's going on here,
but I don't want any part of this.

Hey, hey. Don't let his little snafu
bother you, we need you.

Me most of all.

I guess it's up to Dr. Venkman
to save the day again.

Peter, you can't use that in here.

Why not? I got it on low power.

[screaming]

[speaking gibberish]

Hmm. Maybe it's set too low.

Peter, wait!

[screaming]

[squeaking]

Whoa!

Oh, terrific.

Attack! Attack!

Whoa! I think we better call Egon.

-He did what? And they what?
-[cat meows]

Sorry, something's come up.

They need me at headquarters,
they'll be here to pick me up any minute.

-[gasps]
-[cat meows]

Fine, I'll go with you.

[speaking gibberish]

Ah! Dr. Venkman.

[squeaks]

You don't pay me enough to deal with this.

I quit.

Come on, Louise, we'll have this
all cleared up in a few minutes.

Believe me, everything's under control.

-Whoa!
-[thuds]

[laughing]

All right, that's it. I'm gonna make
deviled ham out of you guys.

I don't understand, Dr. Venkman.

Simple. If hitting the little dickens
with the particles stream

made them multiply,

then reversing the polarity
ought to give us the opposite effect.

Uh-oh.

[chuckles] I think it's ready now.

[Imp] Oh, no.

[all chattering]

No!

All right, it's payback time.

[tires screeching]

Peter, what are you doing?

Not to worry, Egon,
everything's under control.

I reversed the polarity on the stream.

[both] Reversed the polarity?

-Peter! Don't.
-No, don't!

Take that.

[screaming]

[growling]

[growling continues]

[screams]

[growling]

[shouting]

There goes the power.

It must have torn the wiring out
when it broke the wall.

Where's Louise?

Louise!

Louise! Where are you?

[Egon] She's around here somewhere.

Right now, we better catch that thing
before it does any more damage.

[sobbing]

[growling]

Mayor's not gonna like this.

I'll get the car.

Louise. Are you in here?

You can come out now. The demon's gone.

There's got to be
a light switch around here.

Maybe this is it.

[machine beeping]

Must be an emergency generator.

[Slimer speaking gibberish]

Huh? Uh-oh.

[bubbling]

[gasps]

[speaking gibberish]

[screams]

[laughs evilly]

[man] Oh, God, help!

[shouting]

Help!

[laughs evilly]

OK, smart guy.
Let's see, you laugh this off.

[explodes]

[laughs]

Plan B, guys.

[loud thumping]

[tires screeching]

I don't think it's affected
by our particle streams.

And I doubted your genius.

Louise.

Come on, show a little backbone.

Come on.

[speaking gibberish]

Huh?

Is that you, Louise?

So, now what?

Perhaps a ballistic as*ault
with sufficient mass

might adversely affect its balance.

In other words,
you want me to ram the sucker.

[Egon] Right.

That'll be a good test
for the new hydraulic bumper I installed.

[growling]

[all screaming]

[tires screeching]

[growling]

Oh.

[growl]

Well, at least now it's following us
and not wrecking the city.

Ray, there's always
a silver lining for you, isn't there?

[growling]

Is everything finally back to normal?

-[banging]
-What the...

[speaking gibberish]

Yeah, I think things are OK.

[gasps]

[screaming]

[laughs evilly]

[laser g*nsh*t fired]

"OK?" This is your idea of OK?

[growling]

Uh, yo, guys, I hate to bring this up,

but sooner or later,
we're gonna run out of gas.

Hey, don't worry, Winston.
I have my credit card.

The problem is that
this demon is too powerful

for our beams to affect it.

[Egon] Perhaps if we could come up
with more energy,

we might be able to defeat it.

Sure.

We'll just stop by a corner market
and buy a whole bunch of batteries.

I had something more
elaborate in mind, Peter.

Listen.

[panting]

[Janine] Where did they come from?

Did you open the storage unit?

[Louise panting] I don't think so.

[laughs evilly]

[Janine panting] You don't think so?

Well, I flipped a switch or two
looking for the lights.

[both screaming]

We've got to do something
before they completely wreck the place.

[tires screeching]

I hope that gate guard understands
why we didn't stop.

Go buy him a new gate.

Hey, man,
you've been watching too many movies.

This will take a little time.

Peter, you and Winston
keep the demon occupied,

while Ray and I worked on the generator.

Keep it occupied?

How are we supposed to do that?

Well, you're very resourceful, Peter,
you think of something.

[growling]

What do we do?

Yo, man, don't ask me.
You're the resourceful one.

[growling]

OK, here goes nothing.

Hey, red, how about a nice game of chess?

Monopoly maybe?

[growling]

I don't think
it wants to play games, Peter.

I know, we'll play tag

and you're it.

[screams]

[panting] What are we doing here?

I'm looking for the proton pack
that Peter worked on.

Oh, right.

Here it is.

[screaming]

[machine whirring]

Perhaps you could hurry
a little more, Ray.

Egon, I'm surprised at you.

You know,
this is a very delicate connection.

-Help.
-Help.

[growling]

Forgive me, Ray.

I don't know what came over me.

[machine whirring]

Peter reversed the polarity on this one.

So maybe its beam
will cancel the ghost beam.

What if it doesn't?

Then it's been nice working with you.

[laughing evilly]

[groans]

Slimer, are you still here?

[screams]

-What?
-[gasps]

[speaking gibberish]

[screaming]

[speaking gibberish]

Not bad if I do say so myself.

Ray! Egon! Do something.

Oh, no.

[growling]

[panting] I can't run anymore.

[panting] Me either.

[both panting]

[growling]

[laughs]

[demon screaming]

[grunting]

Well, that wasn't so hard.

I think you should walk home.

I think you should walk to Florida.

And I thought it was a mess when we left.

Oh, hi, guys.

Louise and I decided,
that since I didn't get my night off,

I should get tomorrow off instead.

Starting now.

Yeah, and I'm going with her.

I never wanna see this place again.

But who, who's gonna clean up this mess?

[Janine] Does that answer your question?

[all] Oh.

[grumbling]
