[playfully ominous music]

[upbeat music]

And now remember, Corky,

you promised your aunt Jessica
you'd behave this time.



I will.

Oh wow, what's that, Tracy?

-No.
-I just wanna look at it.

Oh.

Corky, you promised
you'd behave.

I am behaving, Eddie.

-[horn squeals]
-Oh no!

Let's look at
Skelevision, Corky.

Maybe this'll keep
you out of mischief.

[Skelevision chirps]

Oh no. Hey, Trace,
give me a hand, will ya?

Skelevision's goofing up.

Okie-dokie.

-Easy there.
-All right.

Now, where's Corky?
Corky!

He was outside painting
mustaches on our statues.

[groans] We have a
rule around here.

If you mess it up,
you dress it up.

He's right,
now go clean it off.

Aw, Jake.

What's the latest in
the amusement parks?

Well, Jessica Wray has
a live report for you.

Jessica?

Hey guys, Jessica's
on the tube.

Thanks, Bud, it's
called Ghost Park.

With plenty of rides
and games and ghosts.

Ghosts are everywhere selling
tickets, making burgers.

[TV shatters]

Gee, boss, what made
you mad this time?

That so called Ghost Park.

How dare they make
fun of ghosts?

I'll show them, they'll wish
they never heard of ghosts

when I'm finished.

[cackles] What you gonna
do, Your Rottenness?

[laughs] I'll show them what
a real ghost park is like.

Apparitia, I've
got a job for you.

[light zapping]

Apparitia, where are you?

And so it's fun for all

at the new make-believe
Ghost Park.

-Bud?
-Thanks, Jessica.

In the mayor's office today--

Oh, that sounds
like a neat place.

It sure does.

'Kay, if you clean up the
statues, Corky, real good,

I'll take you to Ghost Park.

You're real?

Oh, boy.

Can I go too, Eddie, huh, huh?

[Eddie] Why not,
Belfrey, we'll all go.

Oh wow, come on, Corky.

I'll help you clean up.

[ominous music]

[Apparitia] Oh, now where
did I put that amulet?

Didn't you hear
the boss call you?

I don't care... [hiccups]
who called me.

I've got the hiccups and...
[hiccups]
I'm not going anywhere

until I find my amulet.

[thunder rumbles]

[Prime Evil] Where's Apparitia?

Oh, on second thought, maybe
I'd better get up there fast.

Coming, Your Madness.

Didn't Brat-A-Rat
tell you I wanted you?

[hiccups] No.

Yes, I did.

You didn't.

[hiccupping]

I did too!

And if you wanna get rid of
the hiccups, drink water.

No, no, no, hold your
breath and count to 10.

I... [hiccups]
tried them all.

The only thing that
works is my amulet.

Like the one around your neck?

No wonder I couldn't find it.

Enough about hiccups.

I have an important
job for you.

I want you to haunt
a new amusement park.

Oh, an amusement park?

Oh, honey, you're joking.

Don't honey me, I never joke.

When I finish, Ghost Park
will go down in history.

I thought the amulet
cured your hiccups.

Oh, I forgot to rub it.

Ah, now I can ask.

Why do you want me
to haunt Ghost Park?

[thunder rumbles]

Because they're
making fun of ghosts.

And I want you to scare
them out of their wits.

And to make sure you
do the job right,

I'm sending Brat-A-Rat
to go with you.

Oh, thank you, your
badness, oh thank you.

We do work well together.

No, we don't.

Yes, we do.

I'm losing my
patience with you two.

Now get out of here.

[dramatic piano music]

Okay, but we don't!

We do!

[Prime Evil] Don't, do, go!

[light zaps]

[bright carnival music]

Gosh, let's go on the
rollercoaster again.

Come on, Eddie, one more time.

I'm too pooped.

There's Jake over there,
ask him to take ya.

Hmm, wonder what the ghost
bummers are doing here.

Keep your voice down.

If they find out we're here,
they'll mess up our plans.

Our plans?

Honey, I'm in
charge of this job.

Let's have some fun.

Did you say something?

Me?

-No.
-[Apparitia] Oh, Eddie!

Eddie!

Did you hear that?

It must be the wind.

You better take it easy, Eddie.

I'll find Jake and be with him.

And don't talk to any
strangers.

Hmm, I'm gonna warm
things up for him.

Let's heat up that bench.

Boy, it's getting hot.

It's gonna get hot.

[Eddie yelps]

Warm regards from plan evil.

[Apparitia laughs]

[groans] Come back
here, you cowards!

Who are you talking to, mister?

Did you see them?

Apparitia and Brat-A-Rat
just flew away.

This is terrible.

There are real ghosts here.

Boy, some grown
ups are so weird.

You got another one, Jake.

[Eddie] Tracy!

Jake, where are ya?

Uh oh, I wonder what
Corky did this time.

Over here, Eddie.

I just saw them.

Saw who, Eddie?
What's wrong?

I just saw Apparitia
and Brat-A-Rat.

What?
You sure?

Yes.

And where's Corky?

He said he'd be with you.

I thought he was with you.

Where did you see him last?

Same place I saw
Apparitia and Brat-A-Rat.

Uh-oh, let's go.

[people screaming]

This is the prefect
place to start my hot in.

[Corky] Hey, watch
where you're going,

you stepped on my foot!

Go away.

I was here first.

[horn squeals]

Oh, now you're the little boy

who was with one of
the Ghostbusters.

-You know them?
-Oh, we're old friends.

How would you like to
take a ride with me?

Well, Eddie said
not to talk to...

well, but okay.

[everyone] Corky!

Pardon me, sir, but we're
looking for a little boy.

Hey, aren't you
the Ghostbusters?

Yes, but--

I've seen you on the TV.

What an honor.

Name's Parker, I own
this amusement park.

What an honor.

Pleased to meet you sir,

but we're looking
for a little boy.

[Eddie] He was wearing
a red shirt and he--

Did he have a toy trumpet?

That's Corky!

Yup, I've seen him walking
into the rollercoaster tunnel

with a strange looking lady.

Yup, really strange.

Apparitia, she's got Corky!

[ominous music]

[ominous carnival music]

We've got to find
Apparitia and Corky.

Is there someplace private
we can use for a second?

Over there, use my office.

[ominous music]

[Jake] Is the
dematerializer working?

[Tracy] Yup.

[Jake] Then it's time to put
on our ghost hunting clothes.

[everyone] Let's
go, Ghostbusters!

[upbeat music]

♪ Let's go, Ghostbusters

♪ Let's go, let's go

♪ Let's go, Ghostbusters

♪ Let's go, let's go

All right, guys, let's
start ghostbusting.

Take a right on
the rollercoaster.

Maybe you'll spot Corky.

Now go and don't
stop for anything.

Great.
[Tracy crashes]

[laughs] Well, you told him
not to stop for anything.

We'll fix that door later.

Now, let's go find Corky.

Jake, over here.

Corky's missing.

Mr. Parker told me.

Do you have any idea
where he would be?

They were last seen
inside the rollercoaster.

Who's they?

Apparitia and Corky.

Oh no!

We better get in there.

Mr. Parker, is there a back
entrance to the rollercoaster?

That's the only way in.

[upbeat music]

Thanks a lot.

Better be careful, there's a
lot of junk and stuff around

and it's pretty dark in there.

Did he say dark?

[Jake] Yes, he did,
and you're too old

to be afraid of the dark.

I don't think
you're ever too old

to be afraid of the dark.

Here come those hiccups again.
[hiccups]

This is no fun, lady, take
me back to the Ghostbusters.

Hey, what's that?

This gets rid of my hiccups.

Really?
It sounds like magic.

Can I see it up close?

It's not a toy.

Now it is!

Give that back to me!

Come back here!

[Brat-A-Rat strains]

Come out of there!

Gee, this kid is strong.

He's in here, Apparitia.

And you aren't strong
enough to open that door?

Okay, Apparitia, let's
see how strong you are.

Step aside, weasel.

I'll open that door
with one finger.

[door bangs]

After him, you fool!

[suspenseful music]

Mr. Parker sure wasn't kidding

when he said it
was dark in here.

The rollercoaster
track is just ahead.

[riders screaming]

Maybe Tracy's
already found Corky.

Let's hope so.

[Eddie screams]

Let go!

[stammers] Jake?
Jake!

Jake!

The skeleton.

Eddie, Eddie!

[sighs] I thought I
was a goner.

Wait a minute,
Jake, Eddie, look!

That's Corky's!

Maybe he's around
here somewhere.

Let's split up.

I'll go this way.

[fast-paced music]

You can't catch me!

Oh!

Now, be a good little boy
and give that back to me.

Give that...
[hiccups] to me.

[Jessica] Corky, where are you?

Who is that?

I told you that kid
looked like trouble.

It came this way.

[Brat-A-Rat] There he is!

That belongs to me!

Well, don't just foot there.

Find the kid!

Okay, but I think
it's a mistake.

That's not fair, you
sneaked up on me.

Give me a break.

That's exactly
what I plan to do.

To give you a zap nap.

[light zaps]

Don't!
Don't!

I told Apparitia that
kid would be trouble.

How will I ever
explain to Prime Evil?

Oh, there you are.

I yelled for Jake and
Tracy, but maybe they're,

-Eddie!
-Stand behind me, Jessica.

I've got Apparitia covered.

That little toy
doesn't stand a chance

against me and my magic amulet.

[amulet chimes]

Don't worry, Jessica.

I can handle this.

My way is safer.

This amulet's no good anymore.

Now's my chance.

It won't be that easy,
[hiccups] chump.

[Eddie screams]

What a rotten time
for rotten luck.

[laughs] Now it's my turn!

Oh, hi, Apparitia.

Bye, Apparitia.

Look, it's a bony octopus.

Oh, bony?

Well I'll show you.

[Apparitia screams]

Hiccups are ruining my magic!

[Corky] Eddie, Jake,
help, I'm lost!

It's that brat.

He's to blame for this!

What can I do for you,
youngin'?

I love the ride,
especially the octopus.

Just great!

Why, thank you.

Octopus?

An octopus.

Get away from me.

That's Corky, quick!

[fast-paced music]

Corky.

Tracy, watch out!

[Apparitia roars]

All right, right
between the eyes.

Why you big...
[hiccups] ape!

Gee, Tracy, you're super.

[Tracy roars]

I'll capture those Ghostbusters

if it's the last thing I do.

I don't think so, Apparitia.

[Jake laughs]

[Jake] What's so
funny, ghost joker?

You are, Apparitia.

Your magic seems
to have backfired.

What are you talking about?

Take a look at yourself.

[scream] My nose!

Oh, I made a mistake
in the spell.

Yup, I guess you could
say you blew your nose.

[Jake laughs]

Just keep laughing, funny boy.

You won't laugh so loud
when I'm done with you.

Oh, I think I will.

Have some pepper!

No!

[Apparitia sneezes]

Excuse me, just wanna
put a lid on this.

Well, Apparitia, looks like
I've got you bottled up now.

[Apparitia] I'll get you
for this, Ghostbuster.

But at least you
cured my hiccups.

[bright music]

When I grow up,
I wanna be a Ghostbuster.

After tonight, you're
an honorary member.

Gosh, thanks!

I'm sorry I was such a
pain in the neck before.

But from now on,
I'm gonna be good.

-It's more fun.
-You see, Corky?

That's what we've been
telling you all a long.

[Jessica] Corky!

Coming, Aunt Jess.

[upbeat music]

In today's story, Corky
made a serious mistake.

He went off with a stranger.

[Skelevision]
Corky was very lucky

that the Ghostbusters
were around to rescue him.

But sometimes things
don't work out so well.

I'm sure your parents and
teachers have told you

not to accept anything
from strangers.

And definitely not to go
anywhere with strangers.

Be sure not to make the
same mistake that Corky did.

When you play, play it smart
and don't go with strangers.
