[snickering]

[intense music]

[thunder crashing]

[screeches]

[Prime Evil]
It's a wonderful night
for ghosts.



What's the matter, boss?
Hee hee. Don't you feel well?

I haven't felt this bad
in years.

And it's wonderful.

[screeches]

You never use the word
"wonderful" unless..

[snickering]

...unless you've got a new,
rotten, evil plan, right?

[laughing]

Right, my evil little friend.

In exactly three seconds..

Madam Why will receive a gift.

[Brat-a-Rat]
A gift from you?
I don't get it.

[dramatic music]

[Prime Evil]
Ha ha ha. You will.

Of course I never give
anything away

without getting something
better in return. Ha ha ha.

[Brat-a-Rat]
Wow! What is she
gonna give you?

[Prime Evil]
She doesn't know it.

But tonight
she's gonna give me the...

[Prime Evil grunting]

...Ghostbusters!

[Brat-a-Rat]
The Ghostbusters? Tonight?

Gee, boss, ha ha ha,
you're a real genius.

[Prime Evil]
I know I am, Brat-a-Rat.

[Prime Evil laughing]

[peppy music]

Yahoo!

[Eddie]
Gee, Jake, I wish
I could do that.

You could, Eddie,
with a little practice.

An-and a lot less eating.

I wonder where Madam Why is?

She was coming over
to try Tracy's banana
ice-cream.

I better call her.

Ready?

Am I ready
for banana ice-cream?

You bet I am.

[dings]

-Is it ice-cream yet?
Huh? Huh?
-Yeah.

Thanks, I needed that.

Madam Why doesn't answer.
I'm worried.

Maybe Ansabone isn't working.

Huh! Look who's talking
about not working.

-[phone ringing]
-Besides..

Uh-oh! Here comes a call.

Ghost Command!
Er, but don't letthat stop you from hangin' up.

This is Jake, can I help ya?

Who? Hey! Is this
some kind of joke?

[screeching]

Yes! Only, the joke's on you.

Oh, by the way,there's someone here you know.

Don't do it, Jake!
Whatever he tells you to do!

Don't do it!

Madam Why,
what are you doing there?

-[disconnected]
-Madam Why?

Madam Why!
We were disconnected.

-[Tracy grunting]-What I'd like to know is whatshe's doing at Haunt Quarters?

- Haunt Quarters!
- Haunt Quarters!

Yeah! I don't know why
she's there.

But we're going to find out.

Oh, boy. A real mission.

Can I go?

No, Belfry. Maybe next time.

Oh, Jake, you say
that all the ti-i-ime.

Okay, guys, it's time to say..

[speaking in unison]
Let's go, Ghostbusters!

Tchh hrrr ouchh!

Was that a go-go-gorilla
just landin'

or the whole state of Texas?

[Eddie]
Let's go, G.B.
No time to lose.

[Eddie screaming]

[Eddie screaming]

Yeow!

It isn't too late
to tu-turn back.

Th-that's it, turn back.

We for-forgot
to put the cat out.

But we don't have a cat.

Relax, G.B., we're almost
there.

Okay, Tracy,
standby for landing.

Should be seen..

Oh, there it is now.

[G.B.]Just as I re-re-remembered it.Ugly, ugly, ugly.

We're in luck.
Nobody has seen us yet.

[screeches]

There they are.
Is everything prepared
for our guests of honor?

The guards are out of sight.

[laughing]
Everything's... perfect.

[dramatic music]

So far so good.
Not a guard in sight.

It's too quiet. Too easy.

There's something
funny going on.

We'll climb the wall.

[Eddie]
Way up there?

-Ha ha!
-Come on, fellas.

Where's that Ghostbuster
spirit of adventure?

[blowing raspberries]

This is funnier
than I expected.

You've got them
climbing the wall.

Ha ha ha.

I knew it. I shouldn't have
had that extra sandwich.

Yeow!

[dramatic music]

But, Jake,
those-- those eyes moved.

They look alright to me.

[laughing]

[thuds]

What was that?

My nose is twitching.
Probably a couple of ghosts.

Gh-- ghosts?

Thanks, Jake,
that's a real comfort.

Isn't it, Tracy?

Well, isn't it?

Tracy? Where's Tracy?

[screaming]

I've seen garbage bags
treated better than this.

What's that?

[Tracy grunting]

Tracy! Tracy, how'd you
get down here?

-You okay?
-Yeah.

Good. Now, let's find a way
to get out of here.

That window.
Get on my shoulders.

[Tracy]
Right.

[Brat-a-Rat]
They're trying to get away.

I was hoping they'd try.

I don't get it.
You want them to escape?

Of course not. But it's fun
to watch them squirm.

[screeches]

Watch this.

[Jake]
Can you reach it, Tracy?

[screaming]

[thuds]

[Prime Evil laughing]

Give up, you big ape.

No one gets out of my dungeons.

[chuckles]

[grunting]

Now let's go find Madam Why.

[Prime Evil]
Guards! Guards!

[speaking in unison]
Let's go, Ghostbusters!

[howling]

[Eddie]
We're surrounded.

[Eddie]
Oh, no! Sir Trance-a-lot.

They're gonna make
a sandwich out of us.

-What are we gonna do?
-Maybe they'll do it for us.

Now, when I count to three,
hit the floor. One.

Time for beddy-bye,
Ghost Nappers.

[Jake] Two.

Get ready for a..

[howling]

...cold, cold winter.

Three! Duck!

It worked!
They zapped each other.

[snoring]

[Eddie]
Let's get out of here
before he thaws out.

And before Fangster wakes up.

[snoring]

Have a deep sleep, creep.

Let's split up and find where
they're keeping Madam Why.

[screeching]

What do you mean
you can't find them?

Find them... now!

[grunting]

Not here.
We'll try the other room.

There's one of them.
Grab him.

Hey, a penny!
That's good luck.

It sure is drafty
in this place.

[blowing raspberries]

[footsteps approaching]

[screeching]

Have you searched this room?

[Brat-a-Rat]
Yes. I mean, no.

That I will,
Your Badness, sir.

"Can you search this room?"
Anyone can see no one's here.

Uh-oh!

[Jake]
I've got you now.

Let go of me,
you-- you Ghost Bully.

Not until you take me
to Madam Why.

I'm not taking you anywhere.

I suppose I could
leave you wrapped up

for Prime Evil to find.

Now, for the last time,
where's Madam Why?

She's downstairs.

If they're caught,
it'll be all my fault.

[Jake]
Cheer up, Madam Why.

The Ghostbusters are here
to save you.

I guess you start
hearing things after a while.

It's me. It's really me.

What a sight for sore eyes.

I thought I was lost forever.

[squealing]
Enough of this mushy stuff.

You're crushing me,
I can't breathe.

[Madam Why]
That would be an improvement.

Get that slimy weasel!

Eh, let him go. I'll take you
to the Ghost Buggy and--

[Eddie]
Is that you, Jake?

Where are you?

I-I think I'm in the next cell.

I was hiding from some guards
and I-I got locked in.

[Tracy grunting]

I'm glad to see you too, Tracy.

Look!

[grunting]

I can handle this one, Jake.

[coughing]

[roaring]

[thunk]

[vroom]

[Jake]
Good job, Eddie.

Boy, I wish I could see
Prime Evil's face

when he finds out
we've escaped.

[laughing]

Your wish has been granted.

Take them to the clone room.

The-- the clone room?

[Prime Evil]
That's what I said.

[Ansabone]
Staring at me all day
isn't gonna help.

Stop worrying about
your precious Ghostbusters.

Hello.

Who's worried?

I'm not w-w-worried.

Anybody here?

Jessica!
Boy, am I glad to see you.
Yippee!

Uh, look.
We've got a problem.

[whirring]

Hi, Belfry. Jake was supposed
to call me this morning.

He's not here. They all left
to rescue Madam Why

from Haunt Quarters.

[speaking in unison]
Haunt Quarters!

[Belfry]
Uh, that's strange. She's gone.

Oh, sorry, Belfry,
but I was in a hurry.

They'll need our help,
Jessica.

We must go to Haunt Quarters.

And I'm going with you...

if you let me.

Sure, why not?

You mean it?
I can come with you?

[cheering]

Hey, bring me back
a grilled cheese sandwich.

[Futura]
Well, I can't promise
you that. Ha ha ha.

But I can promise we'll bring
back the Ghostbusters.

Frankly, I'd rather have
a cheese sandwich. Ha ha ha.

Hey, boss,
you've got them all now.

Don't you think I should
get a reward or something?
Hee hee hee.

Serving me is your reward.

[Brat-a-Rat]
Of course, Your Badship.

[Prime Evil]
Throw them into
the clone room.

Then they will never say
that infernal phrase..

[Futura]
Let's go, Ghostbusters!

Futura!

Jake, everybody, this way.

[screeching]

Guards! Seize them, you idiots!

I think you boys
have lost your marbles.

Here, have some of mine.

You ruined my plans
for the last time, Futura.

[screeches]

[Jessica]
Watch out, Futura!

[zap]

[boom]

[Jake]
Hurry, Futura.

[Scared Stiff]
Oh, don't let them get away.

Uh-oh! Detour.
Let's duck in here.

[Eddie grunting]
Ouch! I wish
there was more light.

W-w-why didn't you say so?

[Jessica]
It's G.B.

Just hop in and leave
the driv-v-ving to me.

What are we waiting for?
Let's go, Gho--

Hold it.

Belfry! Where's Belfry?

Oh, no. Is he here too?
When did you last see him?

In the clone room.

No, Jake,
you can't go back there.

I have to, Eddie.
Belfry might be in trouble.

After I zap you,
you'll like it here.

I might even make you
my personal servant.

Uh, can I have
one last request before

you turn me into a clone,
Mr. Brat-a-Rat? Huh? Huh?

Sure, bird brain, what is it?

Uh, I can't get up the steps
tied up like this.

Oh, no, you don't.

I'm not falling
for an old trick like that.

You'll stay tied up.

Oh, keep me tied up,
Mr. Brat-a-Rat.

I only wanted you to give me
a boost to get up the steps.

Like this?

Yes, Mr. Brat-a-Rat, that.

[screeching]

[Belfry]
Help me! Help me! Help me!

That was Belfry.

Are you alright?

Aw, you came back for me.

You didn't think
we'd leave without you?

Full alert! Full alert!

All Goolies reportto the clone room immediately.

All Goolies!

You won't get away this time.

-Ready?
-You bet.

Now, Tracy. Now!

Okay, Belfry,
there's your target.

Boo!

Hey, I'm on your side.

I got one!

No, you don't, you got me.

I'm not really seeing this.

I'm not really seeing this!

Here they come.

[engine revving]

[all]
Let's go, Ghostbusters!

And once again, Prime Evil's
evil plan was spoiled.

Thanks to Futura and Jessica.

And thanks to Tracy and G.B.

But most of all, thanks
to a little guy
with lots of spunk.

You really came through
for us, Belfry.

I'm real proud of...

[snoring]

Belfry? [laughs]

I guess it was
a tough day for all of us.

[all laughing]

Hi, everybody.

When Madam Why was in trouble

the Ghostbusters
came to help her.

And when the Ghostbusters
were in trouble

Jessica, Futura,
and Belfry came to help them.

That's what friendship
is all about.

Helping each other.

So, remember, boys and girls,

the best way
to have good friends

is by being
a good friend in return.

One more thing, if you see
a friend without a smile...

give him one of your own.
