• Egon : Vigo the Carpathian. Born 1505, died 1610.

  Peter Venkman : 105 years old, he hung in there, didn't he?

  Ray : He didn't die of old age, either. He was poisoned, stabbed, shot, hung, stretched, disembowled, drawn and quartered.

  Peter Venkman : Ouch.

  Winston : Guess he wasn't too popular at the end, huh?

  Egon : No, not exactly a man of the people. Also known as Vigo the Cruel, Vigo the Torturer, Vigo the Despised, and Vigo the Unholy.

  Peter Venkman : Wasn't he also Vigo the Butch?

  Ray : And dig this, there was a prophecy. Just before his head died, his last words were "Death is but a door. Time is but a window. I'll be back."

• [Dana hands Oscar to Peter] 

  Dana : It's late, I really ought to put him down.

  Peter Venkman : May I?

  Dana : Yeah, if you want to.

  Peter Venkman : [points in baby's face]  You're short, your bellybutton sticks out too far, and you're a terrible burden on your poor mother.

• Judge Wexler : [in the middle of persecuting the Ghostbusters he was attacked by the ghosts of two murderers he sentenced to the chair]  You got to do something! Help me!

  Ray : Don't talk to me; talk to my attorney.

  Louis Tully : And that's me! My guys are still under a judicial mistrangement order... that blue thing I got from her! They could be exposing themselves!

  Peter Venkman : And you don't want us exposing ourselves!

• Egon : I'd like to run some gynecological tests on the mother.

  Peter Venkman : Who wouldn't?

• Prosecutor : So, what you're saying is that the world of the supernatural is your exclusive province?

  Peter Venkman : Kitten, I think what I'm saying, is that sometimes, shit happens, someone has to deal with it, and who ya gonna call?

• Peter Venkman : You know, I have met some dumb blondes in my life, but you take the taco, pal! Only a *Carpathian* would come back to life now and choose New York! Tasty pick, bonehead! If you had brain one in that huge melon on top of your neck, you would be living the sweet life out in Southern California's beautiful San Fernando Valley!

• Elaine : According to my source, the end of the world will be on February 14th, in the year two thousand and sixteen.

  Peter Venkman : Valentine's Day. Bummer. Where'd you get your date, Elaine?

  Elaine : I received this information from an alien. As I told my husband, it was in the Paramus Holiday Inn, I was having a drink at the bar, alone, and this alien approached me. He started talking to me. He bought me a drink, and then I think he must have used some kind of a ray or a mind control device because he forced me to follow him to his room and that's where he told me about the end of the world.

  Peter Venkman : So your alien had a room at the Holiday Inn, Paramus?

  Elaine : It might have been a room on the spacecraft made up to look like a room at the Holiday Inn. I can't be sure about that, Peter.

• Dana : Okay, but after dinner, don't put any of those old cheap moves on me. It's different now.

  Peter Venkman : Oh, no! I have all NEW cheap moves.

• Peter Venkman : [to Egon]  Who told you to stop cutting? Somebody tell you to stop cutting?

  First Cop : What are you guys doing here?

  Peter Venkman : [to First Cop]  You tell him to stop cutting?

  First Cop : Yes, I told him to stop cutting. What are you doing?

  Peter Venkman : What's it look like we're doing here? Why don't you let us work? We let you work.

  Ray : [to Peter]  Hey, take it easy.

  [to First Cop] 

  Ray : He's been working overtime. I'll tell you why we're here. We're here because some diaper bag downtown's being a jerk and making us work on a Friday night. Am I right, Peter?

  Peter Venkman : Of course you're right, Raymond.

  [to Egon] 

  Peter Venkman : Is he right, Ziggy?

  Egon : [pause]  Yo!

• Janosz : Dana is no here.

  Peter Venkman : Yeah, we know that.

  Janosz : Then why are you came?

• Prosecutor : Dr. Venkman, would you please tell the court why you and your co-defendants took it upon yourselves to dig a very big hole in the middle of 1st Avenue?

  Peter Venkman : Well, there are so many holes in 1st Avenue, we really didn't think anyone would notice.

• [the Mayor's assistant has just been rude to Dr. Peter Venkman] 

  Peter Venkman : You know, I'm a voter. Aren't you supposed to lie to me and kiss my butt?

• Ray : It looks like a giant Jell-O mold.

  Winston : I hate Jell-O.

  Peter Venkman : Oh, come on. There's always room for Jell-O!

• Peter Venkman : [to Dana]  Well you're probably feeling what Vigo's feeling: "Carpathian Kitten Loss." He misses his kitty! Well, we'll just place one in here right by the castle.

  [Peter grabs a brush and moves towards the Vigo painting] 

  Janosz : [Trying to stop Peter]  Don't go 'round altering valuable art, Dr. Venkman... go... yes, I think, go... the joyfulness is over!

  Dana : [to Janosz]  He's kidding.

  Peter Venkman : Well, you're not gonna get a green card with that attitude, pal!

• Peter Venkman : Hi, Egon. How's school? I bet those science chicks really dig that large cranium of yours, huh?

  Egon : I think they're more interested in my epididymis.

• [at the Statue of Liberty] 

  Peter Venkman : Hey, how many of you people out here are a national monument? Raise your hand, please? Oh, hello, Miss!

• Peter Venkman : [as the Mayor walks in] 

  [Raising his voice over the rest of the 'Busters] 

  Peter Venkman : Lenny. Big man.

  The Mayor : The Ghostbusters.

  Winston : Mr. Mayor?

  [Holds out his hand, wanting to shake his hand] 

  The Mayor : What is this? A slumber party?

  Ray : Well, that's why we wanted to see you.

  The Mayor : Listen, *I* don't want to hear anything about it. You got two minutes. Make it good.

  Ray : [Getting started]  Well, first of all Mr. Mayor, it's a great pleasure to see you again, and you'll be happy to know that almost fifty percent of us voted for you in the last election.

  The Mayor : I appreciate that.

  Peter Venkman : I'm sorry we have to meet under these circumstances.

  Ray : Mr. Mayor, we're here tonight because a psychomagnatheric slimeflow of immense proportions is building up beneath the city.

  The Mayor : Psycho-what?

  Egon : Psychomagnatheric.

  Peter Venkman : Big word, big word.

  Egon : Negative human emotions that are forming into a vicious ectoplasm with *explosive* supernormal potential.

  The Mayor : Can somebody speak English here?

  Winston : Uh yeah. Your honor, what we're trying to say is all of the bad feelings. You know hate, anger and the vibes of the city are turning into this *sludge*. I didn't believe in it either. But, we just went for a swim in it and end up almost killing each other.

  Hardemeyer : [to the Mayor] 

  [aggravated] 

  Hardemeyer : This is insane! Do we *really* have to listen to this?

  Peter Venkman : [to Hardemeyer]  Can't you stop your lips from flapping for 2 little minutes?

  [to the Mayor] 

  Peter Venkman : Lenny, have you been out on the street lately, do you know weird it is out there? We've taken our own headcount, there seems to be 3 *million* completely miserable assholes living in the Tri-State area.

  Hardemeyer : [In disbelief]  Please.

  Peter Venkman : I beg your pardon, 3 million and *one*.

  Hardemeyer : Hey.

  Ray : And what *fudgy brain* here doesn't realize, that if we don't do something fast this whole place is gonna blow like a frog on a hot plate.

  Hardemeyer : [In disbelief]  Yeah, right.

  The Mayor : What do you want me to do, go on television and tell 3 million people they have to be *nice* to each other?

  [Begins to walk off] 

  The Mayor : Being miserable and treating other people like dirt is every New Yorker's god-given right. Your two minutes are up, good night gentlemen.

• [At the foot of the Statue of Liberty] 

  Peter Venkman : Kinda makes you wonder, doesn't it?

  Winston : Wonder what?

  Peter Venkman : Whether she's naked under that toga. She *is* French. You know that.

• Peter Venkman : See you next week on "World of the Psychic." Until then, this is Peter Venkman, saying...

  [points to his forehead and stares at the camera for a long beat] 

  Peter Venkman : Ha ha! See you then.

• [Egon and Ray are showing Peter and Winston their breakthrough with a slime specimen] 

  Egon : Go ahead, Ray!

  Ray : [shouting at the slime]  You! You worthless piece of slime! You ignorant disgusting blob!

  [slime twitches] 

  Egon : You're nothing but an unstable short-chained molecule!

  Ray : You foul obnoxious muck!

  [bubbles dangerously with every insult] 

  Egon : You have a weak electrochemical bond!

  [starts to bubble over] 

  Ray : I have seen some disgusting crud in my time, but you take the cake!

  Peter Venkman : This is what you do with your spare time?

• Ray : Two in the box!

  Egon : Ready to go.

  Peter Venkman : We be fast.

  Ray , Egon , Peter Venkman : And they be slow!

  Louis Tully : Wow!

• Peter Venkman : So, what happened to Mr. Right? I heard he ditched you and went to Europe.

  Dana : He did not ditch me. We had some problems, and he got a very good offer from an orchestra in London and he took it.

  Peter Venkman : So he ditched you?

• Peter Venkman : You never got it, Dana. I'm a man! I'm sensitive! I need to feel loved. I need to be desired!

  Dana : It was when you started introducing me as the old ball and chain, that's when I left.

• [after failing to break through the ectoplasm surrounding the Museum] 

  Egon : That slime mold is pulsing with evil. It would take a tremendous amount of positive energy to crack that shell and I seriously doubt there's enough goodwill left in this town to do it.

  Ray : You know, I just can't believe things have gotten so bad in this city that there's no way back. I mean, sure, it's dirty, it's crowded, it's polluted, it's noisy and there's people all around who'd just as soon step on your face as look at you. But come on! There's got to be a few sparks of sweet humanity left in this burned-out 'burg and we just have to figure out a way to mobilize it.

  Egon : He's right. We need something that everyone in this town can get behind, we need... a symbol!

  Ray : Something that appeals to the best in each and every one of us.

  Egon : Something good.

  Winston : Something decent.

  Peter Venkman : Something pure.

  [They are all looking at the image of the Statue of Liberty on the Ecto-1's license plate] 

• Talk Show Producer : No respected psychic will come on this show. They all think you're a fraud.

  Peter Venkman : I *am* a fraud!

• Egon : Venkman, would you get a stool specimen, please.

  Peter Venkman : Business or personal?

• Dana : His name is Oscar.

  Peter Venkman : Named after a hot dog. You poor man. You poor, poor man.

• Milton Angland : I have a strong psychic belief that the world will end on New Year's Eve.

  Peter Venkman : Well, for your sake, I hope you're right.

• Dana : You're much better than you realize. You don't give yourself enough credit.

  Peter Venkman : I need to hear that kind of stuff. You know, if I had this kind of stuff for like on a 24-hour basis, I could have myself whipped into shape by the end of this century.

• [piloting the Statue of Liberty] 

  Egon : We're running out of time, Ray, it's almost midnight. Can't you make her go any faster?

  Ray : I'm afraid the vibrations will shake her to pieces. We should have padded her feet.

  Egon : I don't think they make Nikes in her size, Ray.

  Peter Venkman : Hey, she's tough. She's a harbor chick!

• [Ray has stepped in front of the painting of Vigo, blocking the Ghostbusters' attack] 

  Egon : Ray... we'd like to shoot the monster. Could you move, please?

  Peter Venkman : Ray...

  Winston : Ray?

  Egon , Peter Venkman , Winston : RAY!

  [Ray turns around, he is Ray/Vigo] 

  Ray : [demonic voice]  NO! I, Ray, am Vigo, shall rule the Earth! Begone, you pitiful half-men!

  Peter Venkman : Now!

  [they attack] 

• [the Ghostbusters have been committed to a mental hospital] 

  Ray : As I explained before, we think the spirit of a 17th century Moldavian tyrant is alive and well in a painting at the Manhattan Museum of Art.

  Psychiatrist : Uh-huh, and are there any other paintings in the museum with bad spirits in them?

  Egon : You're wasting valuable time. He's drawing strength from a psychomagnotheric slime flow that's been collecting under the city.

  Psychiatrist : Yes, tell me about the slime.

  Winston : It's very potent stuff. We made a toaster dance with it.

  [motions to Peter] 

  Winston : And a bathtub tried to eat his friend's baby.

  Psychiatrist : A bathtub?

  Peter Venkman : [with his head buried in his arms in despair]  Don't look at me. I think these people are completely nuts.

• Con Ed Supervisor Fianella : What's going on here? Hey, what's the story?

  Peter Venkman : Hey what? You boneheads are going to come to harass me on again? I got 3 thousand phone lines grounded here, I got about 8 million miles of cable I gotta check, you're gonna come and shake my monkey tree again?

  Con Ed Supervisor Fianella : What are you talking about buddy, the phone lines are over there.

  Peter Venkman : [Turns to Egon]  What did I say to you?

  [Begins slapping Egon's hardhat] 

  Peter Venkman : Those phone lines are over there. What did I say? How many times?

  First Cop : Hey, hey. You're not with Con Ed, or the phone company, we've checked. So, tell me another one.

  Peter Venkman : [Thinking of another excuse]  I got a major gas leak here! What do you think all of this is coming from, the sky?

• [Wexler, Louis, Peter, Ray, and Egon all watch the prosecuting attorney being carried by one of the Scoleri brothers outside the courtroom] 

  Judge Wexler : [wailing]  Ohhh...

  Peter Venkman : You're next, bubbles.

  Judge Wexler : [screams]  ALL RIGHT! ALL RIGHT! I rescind the order! Case dismissed!

  Louis Tully : Hooray, we won the case!

  Judge Wexler : Now do something!

• Peter Venkman : I have more than two grades of laundry, okay? There's not just clean and dirty. There are many subtle levels. Okay? See? You hang this outside the window for twenty minutes... it's perfectly fine.

• Egon : [talking about the mood slime after yelling at it]  We're running tests to see if we can get an equally strong positive response.

  Peter Venkman : What kind of tests?

  Ray : Well, we sing to it, talk to it, and say supportive, nurturing things to it.

  Peter Venkman : You're not sleeping with it, are you, Ray?

  [Ray doesn't answer, but stares intently at Egon] 

  Peter Venkman : [noticing Egon, teasingly]  You hound.

  Winston : It's always the quiet ones.

  Egon : [clears throat, and hastily changes the subject]  How 'bout the kinetic test?

• Judge Wexler : Peter Venkman, Raymond Stantz, Egon Spengler,

  [yells] 

  Judge Wexler : Stand up! Get up!

  [the Ghostbusters stand up] 

  Judge Wexler : You too, Mr. Tully.

  [Louis stands up] 

  Judge Wexler : [furious]  I find guilty on all charges. I order to pay fines in the amount of $25,000 each...

  [the mood slime burbles; Ray notices it] 

  Judge Wexler : ... and I sentence you to 18 months in the City Correctional Facility at Riker's Island.

  Ray : Egie, she's twiching.

  Judge Wexler : [yells]  I'M NOT FINISHED!

  [slime continues to boil] 

  Judge Wexler : On a more presonal note, let me just go on record as saying that there's no place for fakes, charlatans...

  Egon : Uh, your honor?

  Judge Wexler : [cuts Egon off]  Shut up! Or tricksters like you in desent society!

  Peter Venkman : Your honor, this is important.

  Judge Wexler : You play on the gullibility of innocent people!

  Ray : Yes, sir...

  Judge Wexler : Be quiet!

  Ray : But...

  [poits to the bubbling mood slime as it spills over] 

  Judge Wexler : [yelling]  If my hands weren't tied by the alterable fetters of the law, then I would invoke the tradition of our illustrious forbears, reach back to a purer, sterner justice

  [screaming at the top of his lungs] 

  Judge Wexler : and have you BURNED AT THE STAKE!

  [the ghosts of the Scoleri brothers bursts from the slime; the jury members, many vistors and the prosecutor are all frightened] 

  Ray : [amazed]  Wow!

  Judge Wexler : [shocked and frightened]  Oh, my God! The Scoleri Brothers!

  [Wexler leaps from his bench as the ghosts attempt to attack him. He then crawls to Louis and the now-prosecuted Ghostbusters] 

  Judge Wexler : [yells]  The Scoleri Brothers!

  Ray : Friends of yours?

  Judge Wexler : I've tried them for murder! Gave them the chair!

• Peter Venkman : Dana, the guys are going down to the sewer to check for slime stuff. And Egon thinks there may be a huge surge in cockroach breeding. Want to blow off this dinner thing and go with them?

  Dana : Taxi!

• Peter Venkman : [taking photographs of the painting of Vigo]  You know what, give me angry. Will you? Will you give me angry. You've had a bad day. You're cranky. Yeah. Thank you. Good. Good! Oo, angrier! Ooo, you're scaring me. Stop it. Yeah. Good! Okay, womp for me, chomp for me. Yeah, yeah! Okay, give me hot and sexy. Can you do it? You can. Oh, boy. Show me some teeth. Come on. I bet the girls like you, huh? Huh, the girls? Do the guys? I bet they both do, huh? Huh, what about the animals? Do they like you? That's it. More! Yeah, come on. You're big! You're big! All right, just drive it! Just drive it! Yeah, yeah! Just drive it! Yeah! Yeah, yeah! Give it! Give it! Yeah!

• Peter Venkman : Lenny, have you been out on the street lately? Do you know how weird it is out there? We've taken our own head count. There seem to be three million completely miserable assholes living in the tri-state area.

  Hardemeyer : Oh, please!

  Peter Venkman : Excuse me, three million and one.

• Peter Venkman : Uh, perhaps you can help me? I'm looking for a love-potion aerosol, that I can spray on a certain Penthouse Pet, to obtain her total submission.

• Egon : [producing a toaster]  Ordinary household toaster.

  Peter Venkman : We'll take your word for that.

• Janosz : This is Prince Vigo, the ruler of Carpathia and Moldavia.

  Peter Venkman : Bit of a sissy, isn't he?

  Janosz : He was a very powerful magician, Dr. Venkman. And, a genius in many ways.

  Dana : He was also a lunatic and a genocidal madman. I hate this painting.

• Peter Venkman : Here's something off the request line from Liberty Island. We're gonna squeeze some New Year's juice from ya, Big Apple!

• Peter Venkman : Viggy, Viggy, Viggy, you have been a bad monkey!

• Dana : So what do you think?

  Peter Venkman : Well, he's ugly. I mean, he's not Elephant Man ugly, but he's not attractive. Was his father ugly?

  Dana : [to Oscar]  Don't listen.

  Peter Venkman : And he stinks! You're ripe, Senor! Did his father stink? Yeah, I bet Daddy was smelly, wasn't he?

  Dana : But seriously, there's nothing... unusual about him, is there?

  Peter Venkman : Well, I don't have a lot of experience with babies... but you're excited now, because Mama's here to get your stool sample!

  Dana : Stool sample?

  Peter Venkman : Yeah...

• Judge Wexler : [Running from the Scolari Bros. and pounding on the door, then grabs ray by his suit jacket]  You gotta do something, help me!

  Ray : Don't talk to me, talk to my attorney.

  Louis Tully : That's me. My guys are still under a judicial restraining order. That blue thing I got from her, they can be exposing themselves.

  Peter Venkman : And you don't want us exposing ourselves.

• Peter Venkman : Dana, did you see some shirts here in the floorboard area?

  Dana : Yeah, I put them in the hamper.

  Peter Venkman : I have a hamper?

• Peter Venkman : [holding up a Jets jersey]  Okay, I have been holding onto this for a long time, Oscar. I got this - from a girl - who got this - from Joe - Willie Namath. Okay? We don't know how. We don't want to know. So, I would appreciate it if you would not hose this thing down, you know, give it your own personal rinse. Thank you. It would be an excellent time for you to start practicing the thing we big guys call: self-control.

• Dana : Hello, Peter.

  Peter Venkman : [whips around Melodramatically, and speaks in a soap opera-esque deep tone]  Hello, Dana.

• Peter Venkman : [outside the courthouse]  We're the best. We're the beautiful. We're the only - Ghostbusters.

  Ray : We're back!

• Ray : Not so fast, Dead-Head! You want a baby, why don't you go knock up some willing hellhound! Otherwise I'm giving you three to get back in that painting! One!

  Peter Venkman : Two.

  Ray : Three!

• Peter Venkman : [to his very agitated, slime covered fellow Ghostbusters in the restaurant]  Boys, boys, you're scaring the straights, okay? Is there any way we can do this tomorrow?

• Peter Venkman : [while Vigo is holding Oscar]  Not so fast, Vigo. Hey, Vigo, yeah, you, the bimbo with the baby. Didn't you know the big-shoulder look is out? You know, I have met some dumb blondes in my life, but you take the taco, pal. Only a Carpathian, will come back to life now and choose New York. Tasty pick, bonehead. If you had brain one in that "huge" melon on top of your neck, you'd be livin' the sweet life, out in southern California's beautiful San Fernando valley.

• Peter Venkman : [walking towards the camera]  That is the whole problem with aliens is you just can't trust them. Occasionally you meet a nice once: Star Man, E.T. But usually they turn out to be some kind of big lizard! But that's all the time we've got for this week on "World of the Psychic". Next week though

  [Crew Member hands Peter a hairless cat] 

  Peter Venkman : Give me Ira. Hairless pets. Weird.

  [hands the cat back to the Crew Member] 

  Peter Venkman : Until then, this is Peter Venkman saying -

  [makes a gesture as if he is sending out a telepathic message] 

  Peter Venkman : See you then.

• Hardemeyer : Look, just put these guys away fast and make sure they go away for a long, long time, okay?

  Prosecutor : I don't think it's gonna be hard with this list of charges.

  Hardemeyer : Good. Very good.

  [to Peter and the Ghostbusters] 

  Hardemeyer : Violating a judicial restraining order, willful destruction of public property, fraud, malicious mischief...

  [chuckles] 

  Hardemeyer : See you in a couple of years at you first parole hearing.

  Peter Venkman : [chuckles]  They'll never take us alive.

  Judge Wexler : [bangs gavel]  All right, all right. Let's get on with it.

• [to the bunch of reporters outside the courtroom after trapping the Scoleri Brothers] 

  Peter Venkman : We're the best. We're the beautiful. We're the only Ghostbusters.

  Ray : [excited]  We're back!

• Peter Venkman : [the Ghostbusters enters the museum's restoration room]  All right, suck in the guts, guys. We're the Ghostbusters.

  [they breathe in] 

  Janosz : [approaches the four; claps]  No! No, please go! You...

  Ray : Who's this wiggler?

  Peter Venkman : He's yours, Ray. Sic him.

  Janosz : [to Peter]  I have discuss things with you. Now I...

  Ray : Hi, how are you? Ray Stantz from the Ghostbusters. Nice to see you. Beautiful lab you have here.

  Janosz : Can I tell what I told your friend?

  Ray : We're just doing a routine spook check.

  Janosz : Eh, Dr. Venkman, Dana is not here.

  Peter Venkman : Yeah, we know that, Johnny.

  Janosz : So why are you came?

  Peter Venkman : Well, we got a report there was a major creep in the area. We checked our list and you were right on the top. Johnny, where the hell are you from anyway?

  Janosz : The Upper West Side.

  Egon : The whole room's extremely hot, Peter.

  Janosz : Hot?

  Winston : [notices the painting of Vigo]  Ooh, that's one ugly dude.

  Peter Venkman : Oh, that's Vigo. Mr. Vigo?

  Janosz : Uh...

  Peter Venkman : [starts to take pictures of Vigo]  Vigs, would you look this way, please?

  Janosz : Please. No, don't. No, no!

  Peter Venkman : Come on, show me something.

  Janosz : No! No photographs, please! Slides are available in the Gift Shop, eh?

  [Winston pulls Janosz out of the way; Janosz yells] 

  Peter Venkman : Yeah, thanks. Thank you, Winston.

• Peter Venkman : What's his name?

  [to Oscar] 

  Peter Venkman : What's you're name, little guy?

  Dana : His name is Oscar.

  Peter Venkman : [to Oscar]  Named after a hot dog. You poor man. You poor, poor man.

• Peter Venkman : Where do you find these people? Weren't we supposed to have the telekinetic guy who bends the spoons?

• Peter Venkman : I'm an old friend of the mayor's. I just wanted to say hello and give him a kiss.

  Hardemeyer : I'm Jack Hardemeyer. I'm the mayor's assistant. I know who you are, Dr. Venkman. I just don't see any ghosts anywhere?

  Peter Venkman : Well, that's why I wanted to talk to his highness. See, we did a little job for the city a while back and we got *stiffed* on the bill by some bureaucratic bookworm like yourself.

• Milton Angland : I predict that the world will end at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve.

  Peter Venkman : This year? Well, that's cutting it a little bit close, isn't it? I mean, just from a sales point of view, I mean, your book is just coming out. You're not going to see any paperback sales for at least a year. It'll be at least another year before, you know, you got a mini series or a movie-of-the-week kind of possibility. I mean, just, devil's advocate, Milty, I mean, shouldn't you have said, "Hey, the world's going to end in 1992"? Better yet, "1994"?

• Peter Venkman : I'm Peter Venkman. I'm chatting with my guest, author, lecturer, and, of course, psychic, Milton Anglund. Milt, your new book is called, "The End of the World". Now, could you tell us when it's going to be or - do we have to buy the book?

• Peter Venkman : [walks into Dana's apartment]  Well, I know I'm just asking for the big hurt; but, I thought I'd give us one more chance.

• Judge Wexler : Mr. Tully, do you have any questions for this witness that might have some bearing on this case?

  Louis Tully : [to Venkman, on the witness stand]  Do I?

  Peter Venkman : No, we've helped them out enough already.

• [TV Commercial] 

  Egon : With our special half price service plan.

  Peter Venkman : What? Hold on. Half Price? Have we all gone mad?

  Ray : I guess so, Pete. Because that's not all. Tell them, Egon.

  Egon : Oh, you mean the Ghostbusters hot beverage thermal mug and free balloons for the kids.

  Egon , Peter Venkman , Ray , Winston : Ghoooooostbusters!

• Louis Tully : [TV Commercial]  What is it, honey?

  Janine Melnitz : It's that darn ghost again. He just won't leave us alone. I guess we're just going to have to move.

  Louis Tully : No, wait! Don't worry. We're not moving.

  [picks up the phone] 

  Louis Tully : He is!

  Janine Melnitz : Who are you going to call?

  Egon , Peter Venkman , Ray , Winston : Ghostbusters.

• Peter Venkman : It's been a couple of years since we used this stuff. I hope it still works.

  Egon : It should. The power cells have a half life of 5,000 years.

  Ray : There's no time for a bench test. Heat 'em up!

  Peter Venkman : [singing]  Dooooo... .

  Ray : Reeee... ..

  Egon : Egon... .

• Peter Venkman : You're good, pretty eyes.

  Dana : I didn't paint it. I'm just cleaning it. It's a Gauguin.

  Peter Venkman : Well, I've heard of him.

• Ray : It responds to music. So, we've been doing some experimentation, playing easy listening, middle of the road type stuff. You know, Paul Young, "Dust in the Wind," that works okay...

  Peter Venkman : Works for me.

  Egon : Loves Jackie Wilson.

• Ray : This is an incredible breakthrough. I mean, what a discovery. A psychoreactive substance! Whatever this stuff is, it responds to human emotional states.

  Peter Venkman : Mood slime. Oh, baby...

  Winston : You mean this stuff actually feeds on bad vibes?

  Ray : Like a cop in a doughnut factory.

• Rudy the Museum Guard : Hey, Dr. Venkman. "World of the Psychic"!

  Peter Venkman : That's right. How are you doing?

  Rudy the Museum Guard : Hey, I'm a big, big fan of yours.

  Peter Venkman : Thank you, very much. Thank you.

  Rudy the Museum Guard : It used to be one of my two favorite shows.

  Peter Venkman : You're kidding me. Oh, great. What was the other one?

  Rudy the Museum Guard : "Bass Masters".

• Peter Venkman : I've also brought some things from your apartment. Some wardrobe choices. A couple of provocative ensembles in here. I'll leave it up to you.

  Dana : Okay, but, after dinner, don't put any of those old cheap moves on me. Okay?

  Peter Venkman : No, no. No, no.

  Dana : It's different.

  Peter Venkman : I have all new cheap moves.

• Dana : So, how are we going to handle the sleeping arrangements?

  Peter Venkman : Well, what's best for me is if I lie on my side like this and you spoon up beside me, your arm draped over me. We do it the other way, I get your hair caught in my throat and I choke in the night.

  Dana : Well, how about you on the sofa and me and the baby in the bed.

• Dana : [steps out of the bathroom, wet, wearing only a towel]  So, what happened with my apartment?

  Peter Venkman : Well, the guys spent the whole night there. They went through all your things, your personal stuff. They tried on some of your clothes. Made some personal phone calls. Cleaned out the fridge.

  Dana : Did they find anything?

  Peter Venkman : They found a little bit of that pink slime.

  Dana : Oh, God. Well, what am I supposed to do now?

  Peter Venkman : *You* are supposed to get dressed and get crazy with me on the streets of Manhattan tonight. Let's go.

• Ray : Peter, it's great that you're here. We've got incredible news.

  Peter Venkman : Wait a minute. Can I have one try? All-you-can-eat barbecue rib night at the Sizzler?

• Dana : A toast to - the most charming, kindest...

  Peter Venkman : Oh, it's me.

  Dana : It's you. And most unusual man - I've ever broken up with.

  Peter Venkman : Speaking of breaking up with neat guys, why did you dump me?

  Dana : I didn't dump you. I was - protecting myself. I mean, you weren't very good for me, you know. You know that, don't you?

  Peter Venkman : Well, heck, I'm not even good for me.

  Dana : You're much better than you realized. You don't give yourself enough credit.

  Peter Venkman : I need to hear that kind of stuff. If I had this kind of support, on a 24 hour a day basis, I'd have myself whipped into shape by the end of this century.

  Dana : Well, why don't you just give me a jingle in the year 2000.

  Peter Venkman : Why don't I give you - a jingle right now.

• [last lines] 

  Winston : Hey, fellas. You want to take a look at this?

  Ray : Wow.

  Egon : Early Renaissance, I think. Raphael or Piero della Francesca.

  Peter Venkman : No. I believe it's one of the Fettuccine's.

• Egon : We're running out of time, Ray.

  Winston : [to Ray]  Can't you go any faster?

  Ray : I'm afraid the vibrations will shake her to pieces.

  [to Egon] 

  Ray : You should've padded her feet.

  Egon : I don't think they make Nike's in her size, Ray.

  Peter Venkman : Oh, don't worry. She's tough. She's a harbor chick!

  [the animated Statue of Liberty crushes an NYPD squad car, shocking the paradegoers] 

  Ray : Sorry! My fault!

• [the Ghostbusters are released from Parkview Hospital; As the team puts on their uniforms, Louis explains how Janosz Poha, in the ghostly form of a crazed nanny, kidnapped Oscar, Dana Barrett's baby] 

  Louis Tully : And then he took the baby, and he put it in a carriage, and then levitated away!

  Peter Venkman : What did Dana do? Where'd she go?

  Louis Tully : I don't know. She said she was going to the museum to get the baby back. And then there was an eclipse, and the whole town went dark and everybody's nuts!

  Ray : It all fits. Vigo wants in on the 21st century. He needs a human body to inhabit. Little Oscar must be it!

  Winston : And I bet we're the only ones who can do anything about it, right?

  Ray : You bet we are!

• [the Ghostbusters rappel down from the Statue of Liberty through the smashed glass ceiling into the museum] 

  Janosz : Do you know who that is?

  Peter Venkman : Happy New Year!

  Janosz : He's Vigo! You are like the buzzing of files to him!

  [Janosz sees that Vigo has disappeared from the painting] 

  Peter Venkman : Oh, Johnny, did you back the wrong horse.

  [to Ray and Winston] 

  Peter Venkman : Will you hose him, please?

  Ray : Hose him.

  [Ray and Winston sprays Janosz with the newly-created, positively-charged slime. Janosz helplessly screams as the slime incapacitates him, knocking him to the floor unconscious] 

  Winston : One down.

  Ray : On the ground.

• Janosz : Four minutes to go, and then, party times!

  [the evil soul of Vigo the Carpathian is about to possess Oscar, Dana Barrett's child] 

  Dana : [horrified]  Oscar...

  [Dana attempts to grab the baby, but Janosz pushes her back] 

  Janosz : [excited]  It's happening. It's really happening!

  [Just as the possession is nearly completed, the Ghostbusters, in the animated Statue of Liberty, appears. The slime barrier starts to partially recede from the glass ceiling; Janosz is frustrated] 

  Janosz : Wha- No. Go! No, go away from here!

  [Dana successfully grabs Oscar, thus stopping Vigo from possessing the baby] 

  Janosz : Go away!

  [Outside, the partygoers are cheering in excitement as Ray pilots the statue's torch] 

  Peter Venkman : I love it when you roughhouse!

  Egon : Hit it, mama!

  Ray : DROP THE HAMMER ON HER!

  Winston : Go! Do it!

  [the torch smashes through the glass ceiling as Janosz watches in shock and frustration; the rappel cords are thrown from the crown] 

  Dana : Oh, Oscar, look!

  Janosz : Go away!
