for the blind?

-Sure. We haven't been able---But now you can.

$25,000 to the winner

of the "Around The World" race.

That's great!

Yeah!

[grunting]

Well, Trace, I guessyou're tryin' to tell me

that we should do it?

Uh-huh! Uh-huh!

Well, if Tracy thinks so.

Here's the way you go.

[Tracy] Alright.

[Jake] When do we start?

Tonight. From the Evening
Express building.

Sounds good to me.

Hey, Ghostbusters!

[crash]

Argh! Alright, that did it!
That did it!

[screeching]

[thud]

Gosh! Did I hit
an express train?

That was no train, Eddie.

You got in the way
of a Belfry blast!

But now

G.B., you're about to becomethe fastest car in the world!

I-I can hardly w-wait!

[hisses]

There it is! Beastly Buggy!

The fastest car ever made!

It can beat anything
in the world!

Even Ghost Buggy?

What? Of course it can beat
Ghost Buggy!

[screams]

[boings]

Anyone else have any questions?

Uh, darling, the Ghostbustershave entered a race

around the world,
with a prize of $25,000.

Money means nothing to me!

But the chance to show up
the Ghost Bunners

and their Ghost Buggy, ha haha, that's something else.

That's why I've made plans.

Meet Beastly Buggy's driver,Hotrod!

He's going to show
the Ghost... Busters

how to lose a race
around the world! [laughs]

[hisses]

[male announcer] And the winnerof the "Around The World" race

will receive
a grand prize of $25,000.

A demo post
just like this one

is placed at each stop
in the race.

All you have to do
is touch the button.

[automated machine] Thank you.
You may go to the next stop.

On your marks.

Get set.

[engines rev]

What's that?

[tires screech]

Greetings, weakling.

Uh-oh!

I'm here to enter the race.

Uh, yes, uh, what is the nameof your, uh, vehicle?

He's called Beastly Buggy.

And he can beat this
moth-eating bucket of bolts

with his breaks on. [laughs]

Give it your best shot, friend.

Alright.
Drivers, start your engines.

On your mark.

Who's your sponsor?
Who are you driving for?

Get set!

Prime Evil. [chuckles]

Go!

[Hotrod]
Holy smoke!

[Eddie and Jake]
Prime Evil!

What?

Let's go, Trace.
First stop, London.

[creaking]

[boing]

[swoosh]

[chuckling] Hey, this is liketaking candy from a baby.

Those Ghost Bunners
couldn't catch me.

What's that?

It's them!

[coughing]

What are you doing? Those four
Ghost Bummers have passed you.

Eh, don't worry, boss,
they won't get away with it.

Just wait till we get to
London.

Bah! I can't
take a chance on that!

Haunter!

-I say, evening, governor.
-Governor?

[stammering] I-I mean, uh,
good-good evening..

...uh ...Master of Malice,
er, Your Highness.

Hmm. That's more like it.

You're familiar with London?
England, of course.

Like the back of my hand.

Excellent.

I am zapping you to London.

Make sure that the Ghost...Busters are haunted

right out of that race!

Beastly Buggy must win!

[hisses]

[Prime Evil laughing]

[tower bell tolling]

Look! There's London!

And there's the bridge.

Our contact point
is an iron gate.

Oh, there it is!Right down on the water level.

There it is. All we have to dois touch that button.

[triumphant music]

That's what you think,
Ghost Bummers. [chuckles]

Let's move a little closer.

Ooh! Whoa!

Hang on, Tracy!

[grunting]

[Eddie]I knew this was a bad idea.

There, Tracy. Pull over there!

Wow! What a ride!

Alright, Cousin Knight Fight..

time to welcome
the Ghost Bummers!

[Knight Fight laughing]

[Knight Fight roaring]

Uh-oh! Now what?

Hmm... My nose says
it's a ghost and a big one.

Prime Evil's behind this.

If we let him frighten us

we'll never be able
to beat Beastly Buggy.

Okay. He's convinced me!

Let's go home!

[Knight Fight roaring]

This guy's getting pushy.

Trace, what are you doin'?

[Knight Fight growling]

Nice bubble-gum work, Tracy.

We'll tie him up
with a specter snare.

[groaning]

Quick, get downthat other tunnel.

It should get us out of here.

[Haunter] Cousin Knight Fight,
what have they done to you?

[Eddie] We did it, bro!

And here's the real button.

[automated message] Thank you.
The next stop is Russia.

The leader of the race
at this time is Beastly Buggy.

Oh, no!

[automated message]
Oh, yes!

[Jake]
Come on, guys.

Let's show that bozowhat Ghostbusters are made of.

We can catch up...

...I hope.

Okay, Trace,
set a course for Russia.

Heading 4-0-2-6.

Russia?

[shivers]

[Eddie]
I'm freezin' already.

Grr, your blasted cousin
Fright Knight

isn't any more useful
than you are.

[stammering]
I-I...you're-you're-you're
right, gov.

Gov? That's the last straw!

Out of my sight!

[Prime Evil on transmitter]
Hotrod. Calling Hotrod.

I hear you, boss.

The Ghost Bunglers
are catching up to you!

I want them stopped!

Eh, don't worry, Prime.

I'll make a pit stop here
in the Russian snow

and freeze those freaks
for good.

[laughs]

[Jake] That's Russia down
there. Look at the snow.

No wonder I-I'm freezin'.

Uh-oh!

[Jake]Looks like a blizzard, Trace.

Better set down
and convert to snowmobile.

[Tracy]
Okey-dokey.

Where can that button be? It'sgotta be around here somewhere.

Eh, there they are.Let's go, Beastly.

There's no bombslike snow bombs.

[laughs]

[all screaming]

[chuckling]
So long, snow bunnies!

Let's see if you can bustyour way out of there.[laughs]

[Tracy grunting]

[laughs]

[Jake] Hotrod tried
to hide the button.

But it got uncovered when hedumped that snow on us.

His dirty trick backfired.

So we're not licked yet.

Let's push the button and getgoing. Next stop...India.

[hisses]

Blast! Drat! Rats!

[Prime Evil] Those miserableGhost Bummers have gotten awayagain!

I've got to stop them!

Hey, boss, I got an idea.

The next check-in point
is India.

How about if Apparitia
goes there?

Yes! Yes! As one of those weirdstatues with eight arms![laughs]

What a brilliant idea!

I'm glad Ihad it! [laughs]

You had it?

Yes! Brilliant!

[Jake]
Look! There's the Taj Mahal!

[Eddie] Yeah! But where's
the check-in button?

Hotrod and Beastly
are still ahead of us!

[Jake] Take us down, Trace.
Next to that old stone
building.'

[Jake]
Here's the button.

[screaming]

-[Jake] Eddie!
-[Tracy] Hey!

Hotrod's behind this.

I sure am.

Yeah, well, you're trapped
in here too, pal.

Neither of us can win the race.

That's what you think.

Remember, I'm a ghost.

[chuckling]

Great. I had to remind him.

There's gotta be a way out.

Yeah, the sooner the better.

Oh, but not as soonas you think, Ghost Bummer.Hmm.

W-w-where are y-y-you guys?

[Apparitia wailing]

[wailing continues]

Tracy!

Don't worry, Eddie,
I'll get that bozo.

[wailing]

[zap]

That ghost is history.

Yeah, but it might have
friends.

And we're still stuck here.

Maybe not.
What do you think, Trace?

Could you open that stone doorwithout ruining the carvings?

No problem.

Ya-hoo!

That's that. Now,let's catch up with that bozo.

Now, to Australia and home.

[Jake]Switch on the rockets, Trace.

Right.

[Prime Evil] Fools! I'm
surrounded by fools.

Beastly Buggy and Hotrod
are going to have to win

on their own.

Hotrod, the Ghost... Bustershave escaped again.

Don't let them catch you.

Eh, no sweat, boss.

Beastly can run rings
around those wimps.

[Jake] Hey, look, Eddie!
There's Australia.

See those lights?
That's the city of Perth.

One time, when the astronautswere up in space

the people of Perth
turned on all their lights.

So the city could be seen
from space?

Yeah, and to wish
the astronauts good luck.

-Look.
-Wow!

Th-they're doin' it for us too.

[horns blaring]

Hey, why don't we fly low?

Uh, maybe we'll see
some kangaroos.

I don't know, we can't let
Beastly catch up with us.

Please?

Oh, alright.

-There. Look.
-What's that?

Oh, no. It's Beastly.

Come on, Tracy,we gotta catch him.

[swoosh]

[crowd cheering]

They should be
on the ground by now.

The Ghostbusters will do it.
I know they will.

I'm gonna win. I'm gonna win.[chuckles]

Oh, yeah? Look over
your shoulder, wise guy.

[Hotrod]
They're still there.

I'll fix 'em.

No, no, no, not the rockets.

I'm almost out of fuel. Hey!

I'll take the chance.

[tires screech]

[all coughing]

Tracy, look out!

[Hotrod chuckling]

[Jake]
Quick, Tracy. The stilts.

We're not gonna make it.

Oh, yeah?

[Eddie]
Ya-hoo. Oh!

[Beastly Buggy coughing]

[Beastly Buggy groaning]

Hey, Beastly,
don't slow down now.

[Beastly]
Out of fuel.

I warned you.

[coughing]

I wa-wa-warned you.

It's the Ghostbusters!
They're gonna make it.

[Jessica]
They won!

You jerk. You woesome buggy.

You had to run out of gas.

[Beastly] Pfft! Wait'll I get
you back to home quarters.
Pfft!

And so, we're happy
to present you

with the $25,000 cash award.

I knew you could do it.

I kinda thought we could too,but not without G.B.

You really showed Beastly Buggythat you don't win races

with dirty tricks.

Where is G.B.?

[G.B. and Eddie snoring]

Oh, well, I guesshe deserves a good nap.

[snoring]

[Jessica chuckling]Why not? He's got Eddie tokeep him company in dreamland.

[both laughing]

Uh, hi, everybody.

In today's story,
G.B. and the Ghostbusters

just managed to win the race
against Beastly Buggy.

And they did it even though
Hotrod and Beastly tried

every dirty trick
they could think of

to stop the Ghostbusters. Butthe dirty tricks didn't work.

Remember that the next timeyou run a race or play a game.

Winning is more fun
than losing.

But playing fair is the most
important thing of all.

-Right, Belfry?
-R-r-right.
