[techno music]

[spooky music]

I haven't seen her for hours!

[spooky music]



She must have gone out
the back door!

I can't believe
someone that beautiful

has moved right next door!

[knocking]

What do you want?

[Bratarina] I'm Bratarina,

your new neighbor!

I gotta borrow a cup of munch!

I'll be right with you!

Do come in.

She's beautiful!

I'm Brat-a-Rat.

My friends call me Bratty.

Say, uh, Bratty,
you wouldn't happen to know

anything about that
great, big, expensive place

behind your tree, huh?

You mean Hauntquarters!

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh boy, I'd sure love to meet
the guy who owned that.

You would?

[stammering]

Well, that's me!

It's my place.

Oh, yours, huh?

Yeah, just one of my
many haunted castles.

Well...
[laughs]

Tell me more Bratty-Poo.

[Prime Evil] Brat-a-Rat!

Prime Evil!

Just one of the ghosts
who work for me.

I better see what he wants.

Don't go away!

[laughs]

You called, Your Primeness?

I'm sailing the Ghost Galleon

to Goblin Galaxy
for a few days.

Long-John Scarechrome
informs me

that haunting season is open!

[laughs]

I'll need someone
with half a brain

to take charge while I'm gone.

I'd be honored, Your Primeness,and--

Not you!

I've chosen Mysteria!

You will tell her!

Mysteria?
But-but-but--

[Prime Evil] Shut your snout!
My decision is final.

Now don't forget
to tell the others

that Mysteria is in charge!

Hmm...
[laughs]

[everybody] You?!

That's right!

Prime Evil said I'm in charge

'till he gets back!

[crowd yelling]

I like him.

Well, I don't.

Well, who cares
what you don't like.

I care.

[Bratarina] Oh, yoo-hoo!

Bratty-poo!

Now listen up, you
supernatural saps!

If you don't do
exactly as I say,

I'll make you sorry!

He-He sounds just
like Prime Evil!

Never mention that
name in my presence!

[laser zapping]

[yells]

Scared Stiff, get
yourself together!

Then go to your
room and stay there!

Oh, Bratty!

Whoa!

I like a guy who takes charge.

Heya how 'bout showing me
some of those other castles

you told me about.

The other castles?

[stammers]

Sure!

I've got just the place.

Mysteria!

Fangster!

Come with me!

[techno music]

[telephone ringing]

Ghostbusters!

Your Majesty!

Of course! We'll be right
there, your Highness!

That was the Queen of England!

She says there's ghosts
in Buckingham Palace!

Come on.
We're going to England!

England?

Can I go, too?

Oh, please, please!

Sorry Belfry, but this
could be really dangerous.

Besides, somebody has
to watch the office!

Ah, gee.

Time to get into uniform!

[everyone] Let's
go Ghostbusters!

What do I look like,

a trampoline?

Head for London, England, G.B!

If they won't take
me to England,

I'll fly there myself!

[Jessica] This is Jessica Wray,

with a special report
live from London, England.

The Queen of England
has been forced

to flee Buckingham Palace
due to

the presence of ghosts!

Led by a hideously,
ugly, disgusting,

and obnoxious bat creature.

You see?
I love publicity.

[Jessica] And it looks like--

Yes! The Ghostbusters have
arrived on the scene.

The Ghostbusters?!

Fangster!
Mysteria!

Get in here!

[techno music]

Get to work and stop
the Ghostbusters!

[intense music]

[wolf howling]

What was that?

[wolf howling]

Eddie!
The specter snare!

You can't snare him
if you can't see him, darling.

[laughs]

[grunting]

[Eddie] Don't worry, guys!

This ghost is history!

Oh, Eagle Eye Eddie snared him
in the dark!

[Jake] Nice going, Eagle Eye.

You snared us!

[wolf howling]

He got them!

[howling]

So, the Ghostbusters
have been busted.

Let us go, creep!

What did you call me?

A miserable, rotten, creep.

Yeah, that's better.

[laughs]

Take them back to Hauntquartersand put them in the dungeon!

[laughs]

Wait 'till Prime Evil finds out

I've captured the Ghostbusters.

[chuckles]

[Bratarina] Oh yoo-hoo!

Bratty-poo!

Hey, this castle
ain't too shabby.

Of course, if you really wanted

to be my boyfriend,

you'd get me a place of my own.

Like that, yeah!

[Brat-A-Rat] That's Big Ben!

I need more ghost power

to take that whole thing.

Well... Maybe I oughta start
looking for a guy

with more ghosts, huh?

[stammers] No!
Don't do that!

Floatzart, get down here!

Floatzart at your
service, maestro.

I need more ghosts!

[techno music]

Playing these instruments

will create more ghosts
than you ever dreamed of.

[laughs]

-Hit it!
-And a one--

No, not that slow.

A one, and a two...

[classical techno music]

[laughs]

Now we're talking ghosts!

[Jessica] Oh no!

Ghosts are streaming
out of Buckingham Palace

by the dozens!

Something must have happened
to the Ghostbusters!

[eerie music]

[Eddie] How are we
gonna get out of here

without our ghost packs?

Maybe Tracy can bend the bars.

Oh, yeah, no problem.

[grunting]

Oops.

Oh no!

Now we're really stuck!

[gasping]

I hope it's not much
farther to England.

I got a feeling the
Ghostbusters need me!

Hang on guys!

[Jessica] And to repeat,

ghosts have overrun
the city of London.

In the last few minutes,

the source of the ghosts
mysteriously moved

from Buckingham
Palace to Big Ben!

There's London!

Oh, I made it!

Look at all those ghosts!

I'll bet the Ghostbusters
are in there!

No, no, no, no.
I don't like it like that.

Put the Bat-a-Bed
against the wall.

And the Cobweb
Hammock over here.

[Brat-A-Rat] Right
away, Bratarina.

[Belfry] Jake!
Eddie!

Where are you?

Somebody's here!

If you invited your slimy
friends to dinner--

[screams]

Help! A monster!

Trapped!

Hey!
[groans]

Let me out!

A pet for you, my dear!

Yuck!
He's so ugly.

Look who's talking.

She's right, Belfry,

you're much too ugly
for a pet.

Once my ghosts have
taken over all of London,

I'll have them
take care of you!

I wanna go home!

[laughs]

[eerie music]

Look out!
It's a Ghost Grenade!

Nice catch, Trace!

If that thing were to
go off in Hauntquarters,

it might cause a
pretty big explosion.

Uh-oh.

[explosion]

[Eddie] I'd say
that did the trick.

Let's find a stairway
and get back to London.

[Jessica] And it looks as
if there's no end in sight

as ghosts continue to
pour out of Big Ben and--

Wait!
The Ghostbusters are back!

[everyone] Let's
go Ghostbusters!

[yelling]

So that's where all the
ghosts are coming from.

Oh no!

The Materializer!

It's time for my finale!

That'll take care
of him for a while.

But what about all
the ghosts he made?

[tuba playing]

You play that thing
pretty well!

Hey! Maybe if you sucked in
instead of blowing out,

it would pull all the
ghosts back in here.

Okie dokie.

It's working, keep it up!

[Jessica] Ladies and gentlemen,it looks like the Ghostbusters

have done it again!

That's the last of them.

Nice going, Tracy.

[explosion]

Belfry!

Hey, Bratty!

What's the big idea?

You gonna let
these jousters bust

into my place like this?

Get ready to be
de-materialized, Brat-A-Rat!

All right!
All right!

You win!

But just do me one favor.

[Jake] What's that?

Ladies first.

You dirty rat.

Good riddance.

Weren't you supposed
to stay back

at Ghost Command?

Yeah!

But I wanted to
come to England.

I guess if I'd done
as you said,

I never would've
gotten into trouble!

You're safe now.

That's all that counts.

Hey, speaking of safe,

what ever happened to Eddie?

[yelling]

[Eddie] Look out!

Stand back guys, these
ghosts are history.

Partner, for once you're right.

[yelling]

[Prime Evil] Are we home yet,

you peg-legged pea brain?

Aye-aye, mate.

I'm sorry you got space sick.

I just wanna get back to my own

bed in my own
Hauntquarters and--

Oh no!

Hauntquarters is ruined!

Who's responsible for this?

I-I didn't see.

Brat-A-Rat told me
to stay in my room!

Brat-A-Rat?

Yes!He said you left him in charge!

When I get my hands
on that rotten rodent!

I don't believe it!

Prime Evil didn't
do anything to me!

And don't ever take orders
from Brat-A-Rat again!

You must have had your
head on backwards.

If I didn't before, I do now.

[eerie music]

[Brat-A-Rat] Please Bratarina!
Open up!

[Bratarina] I told
you, get lost!

We're through!

I'll get your castle back.

I'll get you ten castles!

Well, make it 20
and we'll talk.

[laughs]

Anything your little
heart desires.

And I do mean little.

[laughs]

You!

We sure missed you around here!

You will rebuild
Hauntquarters now!

And if every detail
isn't perfect,

I'll turn you into
a feather duster!

That sounds fair to me.

So, he's in charge of
all ghosts and spirits.

Wait for me!

I'm your new
neighbor, Bratarina!

Hey, how about coming
over for dinner?

I make a mean bone stew.

You can tell me
about your castle!

Your mean nasties, I mean
you really smell like--

In today's story,

Bratarina showed she
wasn't a very good friend

of Brat-A-Rat!

She only pretended
to be his friend

because she wanted
something he had.

A real friend is
someone who likes you

because you're a good person.

Not because you might
live in a nice house

or have a new toy!

That's the best kind
of friend to have

and the best kind
of friend to be!

See you next time!
