Ghostbusters: The Video Game

"Peter Venkman: Kinda routine. As usual, I led the charge."

"Ray Stantz: We're fired heroes. Peck's gonna pull our license."

"Peter Venkman: Get real, Ray. It's the holidays! Nobody in this town is gonna be around to pull our license til Monday. We got the whole weekend to stop this calamity and probably half a dozen others, save the city. We got a four day weekend! We have time left ourselves."

"Janine Melnitz: Dr. Venkman if they start evacuating. Manhattan I won't be coming in on Monday. Catastrophic exodus of the city does not count as a floating holiday. I know, I looked it up. (On Phone) Hello. Mmm, mm-hmm. Oh you don't know the half of it. They have been racing in and out of here since that shockwave hit. How would I know? I'm just here trying to keep the lights on. Sure, I can ask what's going on but then they might actually tell me. What? Yeah I'd say it's pretty big. That shnook from the city isn't helping ease the tension either. Anyway. Going away for Thanksgiving might be on hold until things settle down...yeah, I know. But, we have to roll the Ghostbusters' way. Don't ask. Alright. Goodbye."

"Ray Stantz: What does this symbol mean?"

"Winston Zeddemore: Uh, guys... Perfect fit."

"Ray Stantz: It's not a constellation. It's a mandala."

"Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn: I can't believe I never saw it before."

"Peter Venkman: OK, for one minute pretend someone here doesn't know what a Mandala is."

"Egon Spengler: A mandala is like a spiritual labyrinth."

"Ray Stantz: And this one looks like a spiraling system that feeds into each successive node along the line until it reaches a culmination point. Before he died, Shandor must have set some mechanism in place similar to the antenna in Dana's building."

"Peter Venkman: You know, I think you helped to make that clearer. So this was the gizmo that's supposed to feed energy to the destructor form?"

"Ray Stantz: That's...that's right, Peter."

"Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn: Well! Dr. Venkman!"

"Peter Venkman: Well I had to get one right eventually. Didn't I? I mean, it's just math."

"Egon Spengler: Alright, I'm just speculating but it's possible Ghosts are trapped in the system, funneled from node to node, and they get stronger and stronger, until they reach the end, and then they..."

"Ray Stantz: Look! The first portal...the library. The second...the museum. And the third...Sedgewick."

"Egon Spengler: And that means the fourth portal must be...right...here."

"Winston Zeddemore: The middle of the Hudson River?"

"Ray Stantz: Well, according to the mandala, yes."

"Egon Spengler: It may need a little tweaking."

"Peter Venkman: I don't know, plenty of bodies in that river to become ghosts."

"Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn: But what does this have to do with me? What did I do?"

"Ray Stantz: You were at the museum and the Sedgewick."

"Egon Spengler: Maybe you were some sort of catalyst... accidentally setting things in motion."

"Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn: You're saying this is my fault?"

"Peter Venkman: You are blameless! What Egon meant to say was that you have some sort to connection and find out what. Isn't that brianiac?"

"Egon Spengler: That's right, Peter."

"Ray Stantz: Ilyssa, do you remember where you were going when you were at the Sedgewick?"

"Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn: I was just standing outside a room... 1221. Something was compelling me to go in, but I woke up just before the door opened. I ran out there as fast as I could. And then some jerk tried to pick me up on the elevator."

"Peter Venkman: Okay, you need to stay here, where it's safe, and where you can't set off any more crossdimensional shockwaves, hot stuff. Here, read up on the mandala, and the boys will check out the Sedgewick."

"Winston Zeddemore: The boys? And what about you, superstar?"

"Peter Venkman: I'm gonna have you drop me off near Peck's office. Something tells me he's not quite what he seems."

"Ray Stantz: Good idea. Meet us at the hotel when you're done."

"Vigo: Have you savored the exquisite anguish to tortured souls? Salty... You'll be squirming soon enough. Enough! Pay tribute to Lord Vigo, peasant. You win this round, Ghostbusters. That was almost a painful as being stabbed and pulled apart...ermmmmm, but perhaps not."

"Winston Zeddemore: Whoa. If this place were any more dead, we'd need a coroner."

"Ray Stantz: Egon used to be licensed coroner."

"Winston Zeddemore: No kidding?"

"Egon Spengler: It's just a hobby now."

"Winston Zeddemore: Closed until further notice by the Paranormal Contracts Oversight Commission."

"Ray Stantz: PCOC!"

"Winston Zeddemore: Entrance into this establishment is strictly forbidden and is punishable by fine and imprisonment."

"Egon Spengler: What now? Hmm."

"Ray Stantz: This notice is for the general public. It doesn't apply to us. We're bonded contractors for the city!"

"Winston Zeddemore: Especially the Ghostbusters."

"Ray Stantz: Alright heat' em up. We'll met our way in."

"Egon Spengler: Wait! I have a better idea. Hmm. This is disappointing."

"Winston Zeddemore: No. Disappointing is the Jets losing in the last two minutes. Not being covered in slime by phantom ghouls out to kill us... doesn't exactly make me reach for a hanky. Why'd they shut down? You guys didn't bang the place up that bad last time you were here."

"Ray Stantz: If this place is a mandala node, a few brunt walls and broken ceilings are the last thing anybody's..."

"Egon Spengler: And smashed furniture, broken chandeliers, destroyed paintings, shattered vases, probably some minor structural damage..."
