Janine Melnitz: It's an antique shop... I've heard of it.
April O'Neil: Oh?
Janine Melnitz: [chuckle] I dated one of your competitors before. He mentioned the place a few times.
April O'Neil: Oh... Interesting. [fabric shifting, clatter] We came into possession of this dagger. [clatter] Supposedly it's haunted. I was wondering if-
Janine Melnitz: You were wondering if we could authenticate that?
April O'Neil: Yes. [clatter]
Janine Melnitz: Hmm... It is nice. [clatter] Well, that's not really my specialty, but I bet we could help you with that. Kylie, do you think we could do that?
Kylie Griffin: Yeah. I think so. I gave it a cursory PKE reading, and it is elevated, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's haunted. I figured we could run some more tests in the lab... but lab work isn't really my specialty. Is Egon in?
Janine Melnitz: Yeah. Some rich family over there paid for a private consultation. Spared no expense. Paid for him and Zeddemore to fly first class.
Kylie Griffin: They didn't mention anything about that last night.
Janine Melnitz: It was a spur of the moment thing. Just came in this morning and offered extra for priority work.
Kylie Griffin: Huh. Well, I guess I can see if one of the others can help us out.
Slimer: [whoosh] Hmm? [clatter]
April O'Neil: Hey, put that down!
Slimer: Hmm?
Kylie Griffin: Slimer! No!
Irma Langinstein: Who are you talk-? [feet shuffling] !!!
Slimer: [scream] !!! [whoosh]
Janine Melnitz: Dammit, Slimer! [groan]
Kylie Griffin: What's he doing out of containment?
Janine Melnitz: [sigh] I bet Egon was doing some experiments with him this morning and forgot to secure the containment before he left for his flight.
April O'Neil: The Ghostbusters' Firehouse is haunted?
Kylie Griffin: [chuckle] No... Well, sorta. Slimer is the first ghost we ever caught. Egon likes to use him for experiments. We have a special containment unit for him, but he tends to get loose from time to time.
April O'Neil: Well, 'Slimer' swiped my dagger.
Kylie Griffin: Don't worry. I know where he likes to hide his trophies. [footsteps] Come on. I'll show you.
Janine Melnitz: You want to see if you can get him back in his containment unit, too?
Kylie Griffin: Yeah. Of course... [pause] We're gonna want to grab some things from the kitchen.
Irma Langinstein: The kitchen? [footsteps]
Kylie Griffin: Slimer likes food. [footsteps]
April O'Neil: [footsteps] Was he a chef in his past life or something?
Kylie Griffin: No. He's not a ghost in the traditional sense. [footsteps, door opens] Slimer's an ectoplasmic manifestation of hunger.
April O'Neil: [footsteps] Interesting. I didn't know you guys caught anything other than ghosts.
Kylie Griffin: Oh, no... Common misconception. [footsteps, door closes] We face down ghosts, demons, faeries, and have even been known to take out vampires and zombies every so often.
Kylie Griffin: Me? Personally? No... Not yet. [footsteps, refrigerator door opens, clatter] But the company has. I only bust part-time so I'm usually not sent on the most risky jobs. [cardboard shifting, footsteps, cupboard door opens, clatter, cupboard door closes, footsteps, clatter] Usually they just have me do research. [footsteps, microwave door opens, clatter, microwave door closes, beep, beep, microwave thrum] I'm fine with it. I like to read and it's work I can easily do while at school or at the bookstore. [chime, chime, microwave door opens, clatter, microwave door closes, footsteps, clatter, cardboard shifting] Oh, did either of you want some pizza? We've got plenty.
Irma Langinstein: I'm good. Thanks.
April O'Neil: [chuckle, groan] I'm good, too. I already had pizza this morning.
Kylie Griffin: [pause] Pizza for breakfast?
April O'Neil: Yeah...
Kylie Griffin: [chuckle] Sounds like you'd feel right at home here. [clatter, refrigerator door closes] Always lots of beer, pizza, and Chinese takeout.
April O'Neil: Yeah, that sounds a lot like some boys I know... except the beer.
Kylie Griffin: You had breakfast with these boys?
April O'Neil: Yes...
Kylie Griffin: Scandalous... Does Casey know about this? [chuckle] Sorry... It's none of my business.
April O'Neil: Trust me, it's not like that... We just had a late night so I crashed at their place. They're just friends. More like my little brothers, really. Besides, they're Casey's friends too.
Kylie Griffin: Like I said, none of my business. Let's go find your dagger. [clatter, footsteps] This way.
Kylie Griffin: Slimer? [footsteps, door opens] Slimer, I got you some pizza... [clatter]
Irma Langinstein: Is this Slimer's room or-?
Kylie Griffin: No, this is a Ready Room.
April O'Neil: From your description, I thought you said you shared a room with most of the other Busters. I didn't know you had private bedrooms.
Kylie Griffin: That's the barracks upstairs. The Ready Rooms are only for us to use for the team that's on call.
Irma Langinstein: And no one's using this one right now?
Kylie Griffin: Not at the moment... I checked before I came in. [footsteps, tap, tap] They would have put their name tag here in this slot on the door.
April O'Neil: So, is this where Slimer puts his trophies?
Kylie Griffin: In this closet right here. [footsteps, door opens] It's empty right now, but if I know my little green guy... He'll be here. He can't resist pizza.
Irma Langinstein: Little green guy with a taste for pizza... Sound like anyone else you know April?
April O'Neil: Yeah... [chuckle]
Kylie Griffin: Huh?
April O'Neil: Oh, it's nothing. Just an inside jo-
Irma Langinstein: You think he can test April's dagger?
Kylie Griffin: He probably could, [screentap, screentap] but I'm thinking he'd be more interested in testing April.
April O'Neil: Testing me? [scoff] Why?
Slimer: [tongue licks plate, sigh] More?
Kylie Griffin: [beep] Ray just finished a job in Near South. He'll be here soon.
Slimer: [whoosh] More?
April O'Neil: Test me? Why?
Slimer: More?
Kylie Griffin: [sigh] One second, Slimer... [pause] Look, let's get this guy back in his containment unit and when we're done with that, Ray should be here. He can explain a lot better than I could.
April O'Neil: Okay... [sigh] How do we put him back in containment?
Slimer: [tap, tap] More?
Kylie Griffin: Irma?
Irma Langinstein: Yeah?
Kylie Griffin: Can you hand me that contraption right there.
Slimer: [fabric tug, fabric tug] More?
Irma Langinstein: This thing? [clatter] Sure... Here you go. [clatter] What is it?
