01:03The real Ghostbusters will return after these messages.
01:10We now return to the real Ghostbusters.
01:12Ghostbusters!
01:12Ghostbusters!
01:14Ghostbusters!
01:30Captain's log, Friday 13th of June.
01:33Experimental Space Platform Galileo has just completed first full day of mission.
01:39All systems completely operational.
01:48Crew of Galileo are in good spirits and are mentally and physically prepared to set new
01:54space endurance record.
01:55Tomorrow we begin a series of experiments designated in mission profile.
02:00In meantime, we are looking forward to smooth sailing.
02:10Dostoyevsky!
02:11What was that?
02:13I think we've been hit, sir.
02:15By what?
02:16I...
02:17I don't know.
02:18Well, find out!
02:20Yes, sir.
02:21Sir, unable to raise base command.
02:23We're receiving interference on all hailing frequencies.
02:28We're losing energy rapidly.
02:30I don't know if my poor engine can stand the strain.
02:33I'll go look!
02:37Commander Kirov!
02:38What is it, Yeoman Whitney?
02:39I know this sounds ridiculous, sir, but...
02:42Spit it out, Yeoman!
02:44I could swear I've just seen a ghost, sir.
02:46Just after we were hit.
02:48Floating down the corridor.
02:50Pull yourself together, Yeoman.
02:52I know what I saw, sir.
02:54Captain, I just saw a ghost in the engine room.
02:57Not you, too.
02:59Our communication channels.
03:01Hailing frequencies clearing, sir.
03:02Patch me into one of local telephone satellites
03:06and turn off that Peresky siren!
03:09Yes, sir.
03:15Sir?
03:16Who are you gonna call?
03:21Three...
03:22Two...
03:23One...
03:24Liftoff!
03:37Hot diggity.
03:38A government contract.
03:39Big bucks, here we come.
03:41I don't know, Peter.
03:42I'm still concerned about how the equipment is gonna function in zero gravity.
03:46I've made some modifications on this extra equipment I brought.
03:49But they may not be totally effective.
03:51Don't sweat it.
03:52No company with a government contract ever knows what it's doing.
03:56What if this stuff doesn't work?
03:57If it doesn't work, you just charge more and do it again.
04:01Don't they serve a lunch on this flight?
04:07That's fine.
04:30Don't they serve lunch on this flight?
04:34Request permission to bust some ghosts, sir.
04:38Welcome aboard space platform Galileo, Dr. Vickman.
04:41We appreciate your willingness to come all the way up here
04:44to help us deal with our little, uh, problem.
04:48Hey, neither rain, nor snow, nor gloom of night,
04:52nor even depth of space can keep us from our expensive rounds.
04:56Meet my command officers, Lieutenant Sato, Lieutenant Irakwa,
05:01and Lieutenant Commander McTavish.
05:03They will help you with anything you need.
05:05Do these people look familiar to you?
05:08I was just about to ask you that.
05:11Pardon me, Captain, but have we met before?
05:14Don't be ridiculous, Winston.
05:16These people are astronauts, space explorers.
05:18They've been out exploring strange new worlds,
05:21seeking out new life and new civilizations.
05:23Actually, this is only our second day.
05:26And some new life has seeked us out.
05:28Seeked?
05:29I will handle this.
05:31I am Kipton.
05:33Kipton?
05:34It seems some new life form has seeked us out, Dr. Vickman.
05:38Some of the crew have reported seeing a ghost.
05:41Wonderful, Kipton.
05:42What variety has seeked you?
05:44Class one poltergeist?
05:45Free form floater?
05:47Ghost of launching's past?
05:48Really more of a slimy ball of ooze,
05:51if you want to know the truth.
05:54Tobin's spirit guide comes up blank.
05:57Have you considered calling ooze busters?
06:00Peter, I'm getting a heavy reading of ectoplasmic activity
06:03from that general direction.
06:07Aye, that's the way to engineering.
06:10That's where we saw the ghost.
06:11It's empty ectoplasm.
06:13There's no psychokinetic energy accompanying it.
06:16What's that mean?
06:17The logical conclusion is that it isn't a real ghost.
06:21It was real enough for me.
06:30Captain, the ghost has tapped directly into the solar energy converter.
06:33It's draining power faster than the ship can convert it.
06:38With that kind of drain,
06:40our emergency batteries will only last a few hours.
06:43Artificial gravity won't last long.
06:45A ghost hungry for power?
06:48Maybe he used to be a politician.
06:51Perhaps, gentlemen, a closer look is in order.
06:54McTavish, go with him.
06:56Aye, sir.
07:00You guys ever consider paying your electric bill?
07:20By all the heather and the highlands,
07:22the thing's gotten bigger.
07:34Remind me to never put marshmallows in my hot cocoa again.
07:39Same basic ectoplasmic makeup
07:41as a class four free-floating spirit.
07:43Fascinating.
07:44When you talk like that,
07:46you remind me of an old shipmate.
07:48Indeed.
07:59Go ahead, boys.
08:00We're right behind you.
08:02Go ahead and what?
08:03How do we know our ion rifles will work on that?
08:26I'm fairly certain with the modifications we've made,
08:29the ion streams will have an effect.
08:32We'll know in a minute.
08:33Ready?
08:34Aim?
08:41Careful, lads.
08:42Don't rush to the hull of the...
08:44Fire!
09:01It's getting bigger!
09:04Hold your fire!
09:13Hungry little stain, isn't it?
09:15Hmm.
09:16Apparently feeding off the energy in our proton packs.
09:24Obviously, conventional entrapment methods
09:26are not going to be effective
09:27in immobilizing this ectoplasmic life form.
09:30Are you sure you never served as a science officer?
09:34Oh!
09:39Octavish!
09:40Report!
09:42Aye, sir!
09:43What is going on down there?
09:45We have lost gravity!
09:46Well, sir,
09:47we seem to have encountered a wee setback.
09:50The ghost has gotten bigger
09:52and has started tapping into the gravity unit.
09:55We'll take care of it!
09:56At once!
10:02Nice work, McTavish.
10:05If the gravity's come back on,
10:06it must be because it stopped tapping the power from the gravity unit.
10:10That stands to reason.
10:11So it must have found a more interesting source of energy,
10:14something it likes better,
10:16something that will make it grow faster.
10:19Like Wonder Bread?
10:21No.
10:22Like the energy from a portable nuclear accelerator.
10:25Well, then we're in luck.
10:27It'll never find anything like that around here.
10:30Please don't tell me you mean what I think you mean.
10:33Not our proton packs.
10:35Sorry to break it to you.
10:38Look out!
10:46Let's go!
10:55Let's go!
11:11What?
11:16Yo, help you guys! Get this big ugly finger off me!
11:20Help!
11:24The real Ghostbusters will return after these messages.
11:31We now return to the real Ghostbusters.
11:39Whoa!
11:48Huh?
11:52We're missing somebody.
11:55Oh, God! Help!
11:57My luck's a low man. It's got him!
12:00Winston, slip out of your proton pack. That's what it wants!
12:09Oh, God!
12:10Oh, God!
12:15Four uppity!
12:20That's not enough!
12:22Gentlemen, this will not do at all.
12:24Not only have you not gotten rid of creature, you have made things worse.
12:29Calm down, little Ivan Kipton. We've just gotten started.
12:33Hey, we're government contractors, man. You gotta allow us a couple of muff chances. It's in the fine print.
12:39Besides, things could be worse. We've still got lights.
12:46Captain! The Ghost has started to tap into the life support system. Lights! Air supply!
12:51I know what life support systems are. I am the Captain!
12:58Captain! Uh, Captain! I bypassed engineering and got us patched into the emergency reserve. But we've only got four hours
13:05maximum.
13:07Captain!
13:08Hey, Mr. Ghostbuster!
13:11Got that reserve proton pack ready, Egon?
13:15Terrific. Let's get back to work, man.
13:20Been nice talking to you. We gotta get back to work now, Captain.
13:29Uh, Brugnojdrg, the Pravda is Vestia, Brugnojdrg.
13:36I don't know what we're gonna do. The creature's gotten so big, there's no way you'll fit into a trap.
13:41We should try to communicate with it. It might be intelligent.
13:44Hey, if it were intelligent, would it be here sucking sun out of a wire?
13:47No, it'd be in Bermuda lying on the beach.
13:51I'm gonna try anyway.
13:54Oh!
14:03Uh, hi there, fella. Uh, what's happening?
14:07Good, Winston. Why don't you ask if it comes here often? What sign is it?
14:12Don't help. I know you must be hungry after your trip, but we need some of that energy to run
14:17the platform.
14:18Maybe you'd like to lie out and nap for a while.
14:23This is kind of embarrassing, guys.
14:26It's looking for another energy source. You should be perfectly safe.
14:30Yeah, and don't worry. If he decides to eat you, we'll notify your next of kin.
14:33I don't have a next of kin.
14:37Too bad. I'll sell you mine.
14:46Guess you were right. It wants energy, not us.
14:48Well, do you have him?
14:51Not yet, but don't worry. We have it all under control.
14:56What is your plan?
14:57Well, uh, we're gonna, uh, just a second.
15:02Guys, got any ideas?
15:04Let me try.
15:06Can you shut off the flow to the energy converter?
15:09Aye, but it means going outside the platform.
15:11Do it. We'll do the rest.
15:14You've got an idea?
15:16Trust me.
15:28Okay. We've got to be ready as soon as McTavish turns off the energy flow.
15:32Ready for what?
15:35Ready to run?
15:36No. Ready to lure that big blob to the center of the platform.
15:41Very good, Ray. Well thought out.
15:43Satisfying and less filling.
15:45But I think I missed one part.
15:46How are we gonna lure that slug?
15:49That's why McTavish is turning off the juice, Peter.
15:52We'll use our ion rifles.
15:55The creature will move towards the only available source of energy.
15:58Wait, wait, wait. Hold it.
15:59Just who's gonna serve as the bait here?
16:05I don't think I want to play with you guys anymore.
16:07After all, Winston, it knows you.
16:09You already have a relationship with it.
16:12Not unless I know what's going on.
16:14Come on, Winston. Peter never has to tell his plans.
16:18It seems logical that the creator of the plan might in fact be the best person to act as the
16:23lure.
16:24That way, he has direct control over the operation.
16:28Egon? Peter never has to carry out his plans.
16:32Hey now, big guy. Don't be like that.
16:34You be the star of this gig. We'll follow your lead.
16:38Oh. All right. But it's not fair.
16:52All right, lads. Solar panels disconnected.
16:56Your move, Ray.
17:03I wish I had taken those swimming lessons instead of clarinet.
17:19Now to get your attention.
17:23Whoa!
17:29That's right, baby. Come to papa.
17:38Come on. Come on.
17:42Come on. Come on.
17:52Hokey smokes!
17:55It's coming!
18:02Well, I'm glad to see we're in control of the situation.
18:11Egon, grab my hands.
18:14This is no time for dancing, man.
18:17Whoa! Nelly!
18:18Whoa!
18:25Yikes!
18:27Peter, quick! Over there!
18:29Egon, you go the other way!
18:30Winston, down there!
18:32Keep your weapons ready!
18:40Now! Drop a trap and open fire!
19:10All of them?
19:11All of them, quick!
19:36it's working
19:37it's working
19:55that's it good plan ray we got him i knew you could do it gee thanks guys ghostbusters to bridge
20:04what have you done now mission completed sir kipton your space ghost is now space dust
20:11we'll sweep it under the carpet when we get back to earth i cannot believe it believe it bubbla
20:17you can tell mctavish to reconnect the solar panels your mission is saved excellent dr
20:23vinkman thank you oh and kipton you might give houston a call and tell him to have a check
20:29ready for us when we get down lieutenant give houston call and relay dr vinkman's wishes
20:36oh and uh tell them to deduct transportation expenses do you want me to call collect
20:44government contracts i love them we've only just begun to tap the vast financial resources
20:50of our great nation yeah there's no place to go but up
21:01ouch
21:05well i hope the rest of your stay is less exciting
21:12thank you why not come back and visit sometime we could use the company how long are you going
21:18to be up here we are on five year mission hmm fascinating you're right he does remind me
21:27of a certain pointy-eared science officer
21:43the real ghostbusters will return after these messages
21:50we now return to the real ghostbusters
21:53so
22:01so
22:03so
22:05so
