This page holds the Level 8 transcript for the realistic version of Ghostbusters: The Video Game.
Janine Melnitz: "Oh, hi. Really? Mm-hmmm. So I told him that if they start evacuating Manhattan, that I don't plan on coming in on Monday. And he says…and he says I've already used all my floating holidays this year… Right? I tell him, "Dr. Venkman. Catastrophic exodus of the city doesn't count as a floating holiday." No, it doesn't. I looked it up. So he hands me the employee handbook and tells me to look again, and that what is and isn't covered is very clearly defined. What? Yeah it was in there! In his handwriting…in pencil! He wrote it in when he asked me to get his coffee. Anyway. I can take a half-day on Monday if they evacuate the city. Alright. Goodbye."
Winston Zeddemore: "Just once, I wouldn't mind running with these other tools away from the trouble."
Peter Venkman: "Where's the fun in that?"
Egon Spengler: "Any guesses on where we'll find Peck and Ilyssa?"
Ray Stantz: "I suspect that we're going to need the Super Slammer up there. No telling how…powerful Peck has grown."
Winston Zeddemore: "That means we gotta take the Ecto-1. I'll drive."
Egon Spengler: "Maybe the trainee should drive."
All: "Nahh."
Peter Venkman: "Ah!"
Ray Stantz: "Junior's pretty spry, even with that hundred pounds of Proton Accelerator."
Peter Venkman: "Oww! That was, that was 'oww' there!"
Egon Spengler: "Make your way around to the other side and open this gate for us."
Ray Stantz on radio: "Wow! Look at the storm system building above that tower!"
Egon Spengler on radio: "Remember the last time we saw that kind of atmospheric disturbance?"
Winston Zeddemore on radio: "That's right. At Dana Barrett's building the night she turned into a dog."
Winston Zeddemore on radio: "I don't get it. We shut down the mandala. How can all this still be happening?"
Ray Stantz on radio: "In the Gozerian Codex, it's written that a blood sacrifice and a tremendous amount of spiritual energy are needed to generate the Supreme Destructor Form."
Winston Zeddemore on radio: "A Destructor Form, again?"
Egon Spengler on radio: "Peck probably couldn't draw sufficient energy from the mandala before we shut it down. He found an alternate source in our containment unit."
Ray Stantz on radio: "The energy of the escaped ghosts from our grid might be enough to produce a cross-dimensional event in itself."
Egon Spengler on radio: "Yes, and with Ilyssa here, I'm sure her Shandor ancestors aren't far behind."
Whisper: "You shouldn't be here."
Winston Zeddemore on radio: "Earthquakes… great. Could plague, pestilence, and death be far behind?"
Winston Zeddemore on radio: "Yeah, we don't want to stand here all day."
Ray Stantz on radio: "Hoss, you alright? How's that gate coming?"
Ray Stantz: "They aren't very happy about us being here."
Ray Stantz: "You saw 'em too, didn't ya? They think they're sneaky. Let's spread out and flank 'em."
Whisper: "You should have run away."
Ray Stantz: "All right, Youngblood. It's all you."
Ray Stantz: "Look…up there. It's getting worse."
Winston Zeddemore on radio: "This isn't the Central Park I'm used to."
Egon Spengler on radio: "You still have your wallet?"
Ray Stantz: "That means one of two things: either we're in trouble or we're dinner."
Egon Spengler on radio: "Is there a difference?"
Winston Zeddemore on radio: "Hey! We ever test the Proton Packs in the rain?"
Egon Spengler on radio: "That's what the Recruit is doing right now…"
Ray Stantz: "Great…wait a minute! I'm wearing one, too!"
Peter Venkman: "Well. Hello there."
Winston Zeddemore: "Ray! You guys alright? Man, there ain't nothing dead in this graveyard."
Ray Stantz: "Thanks for joining the party."
Egon Spengler: "They're throwing everything they have at us to stop us from getting to that mausoleum."
Winston Zeddemore: "That's as far as I can go. You guys gotta clear a path for me."
Egon Spengler: "Ray, readings here are extremely unstable. Energy from the mandala and the escaped ghosts is building up to a flash point. We don't have much time."
Winston Zeddemore: "Yeah, that's good! Thanks. Rollin' on."
Peter Venkman: "Yo! New guy!"
Egon Spengler: "We've tried everything. This metal is psychonically charged, rendering it effectively indestructible."
Peter Venkman: "Mm-hm."
Egon Spengler: "Well, in such an extreme situation, I suppose it's possible to cause it harm. But I don't think anything we have is going to make a dent in it."
Peter Venkman: "Then what's our plan?"
Egon Spengler: "Ray, you two check out that side."
Peter Venkman: "Uh, 12 o'clock high."
Egon Spengler: "They're too well protected. Our energy streams aren't going to hurt them."
Winston Zeddemore: "Peter, go kick one."
Ray Stantz: "The only hope we have is to stay alive and keep them away from the Ecto."
Winston Zeddemore: "I wholeheartedly agree with Ray."
Egon Spengler: "More precisely, they're little stone angels, capable of attaining speeds of 198 feet per second before they hit their targets… which is us."
Winston Zeddemore: "Kamikaze Angels? Man, I'm going back to Sunday school."
Egon Spengler: "Looks like a good place for slime tethering!"
Ray Stantz: "Hook 'em together!"
Egon Spengler: "We're close."
Egon Spengler: "I think we're getting close."
Ray Stantz: "I didn't plan for a fun-filled day of off-roading with Ecto-1. So no."
Egon Spengler: "The Tether might prove useful here."
Ray Stantz: "This way, gentlemen."
Peter Venkman: "Thank you."
Ray Stantz: "Nicely done."
Egon Spengler: "I'm not sure going underground now is a good idea."
Ray Stantz: "Come on, Spengs. Getting there is the fun part."
Egon Spengler: "Careful! This matrix is becoming increasingly unstable!"
Peter Venkman: "Uh-oh!"
Winston Zeddemore: "Check that out."
Ray Stantz: "That's our next stop."
Peter Venkman: "Head's up!"
Winston Zeddemore: "Agh!"
Ray Stantz: "Winston!"
Ray Stantz: "Ecto-1!"
Winston Zeddemore: "She's tough, but she took that pretty hard!"
Ray Stantz: "Can you get her rolling again?"
Ray Stantz: "I hate leaving her here like this."
Egon Spengler: "Some of us have been walking."
Ray Stantz: "Keep your eyes peeled!"
Egon Spengler: "I think we've got guests."
Ray Stantz: "I knew it!"
Egon Spengler: "I think we're going to wish we had that Super Slammer."
Egon Spengler: "Identify the Shandorian cultists and focus on them. It's their combined willpower that's protecting the mausoleum."
Ray Stantz: "What can unlock the gates?"
Egon Spengler: "Well, those glowing indentations are obviously keyholes."
Peter Venkman: "They are? Oh! Sure! I see it now!"
Winston Zeddemore: "Where are the keys then?"
Egon Spengler: "It may be possible to harness their interdimensional cranial energy source!"
Ray Stantz: "That's got to be the key!"
Egon Spengler: "Spectacular"
Ray Stantz: "Great! Those fells turned out to be pretty helpful."
Winston Zeddemore: "This team can play! No doubt about it!"
Peter Venkman: "Exciting! And somehow risky!"
Peter Venkman: "Wait! It's Ilyssa!"
Peter Venkman: "Can't we blast him? Just once really hard? Nobody's gonna know!"
Egon Spengler: "Easy Venkman everything points to Peck being a pawn."
Mayor Mulligan: "I couldn't have said it better myself."
Ray Stantz: "It's the Mayor."
Peter Venkman: "No Ray, it's not. It's Ivo Shandor."
Winston Zeddemore: "Shandor possessed the Mayor, turned Peck on us to slow us down. And when we shut down his mandala before he could get fully juiced, he hijacked our ghosts out of the containment unit as an alternate energy source."
Mayor Mulligan/Ivo Shandor: "Very good, and they say you're the slow one."
Winston Zeddemore: "Waaait, what? Who says that?"
Peter Venkman: "Everybody. What's the girl have to do with it?"
Mayor Mulligan/Ivo Shandor: "Taking her was necessary. To assume my own Destructor Form, I require blood. My blood."
Ray Stantz: "What about Gozer? I thought you built this all for him?"
Mayor Mulligan/Ivo Shandor: "I did, but he failed me. Twice. How he earned the title "The Destroyer" is beyond me. Anyway, I thought to myself… why worship a god when you can actually become one?"
Peter Venkman: "Slime him."
Egon Spengler: "He's too powerful! It'll take all of our streams!"
Egon Spengler: "I can't shut down mine, Ray!"
Peter Venkman: "Me too! Me neither, I mean!"
Winston Zeddemore: "Who decided to reinforce these shoulder straps?! Yaaaahhhh!!"
Peter Venkman: "Hey, Shandor! Where's your Destructor Form now? Leave it in your other suit?"
Voice of Ivo Shandor: "I have chosen! I am the destructor. I am the Architect!"
Peter Venkman: "*yawn* Was someone waken out of their nap?"
Ray Stantz: "Oh, no."
Egon Spengler: "That's very bad."
Peter Venkman: "The architect? Haha…that's not so scary. The contractor. That's who kills you!"
Ray Stantz: "Peter… you don't understand. He's the Architect, and he controls Ghostworld!"
Egon Spengler: "And he can come into our world. And what do architects do?"
Peter Venkman: "They…they dream?"
Peter Venkman: "Whoa take a break! Do you ever shut up?"
Ray Stantz: "Yeah…No! Listen!"
Voice of Ivo Shandor: "I will pierce your world with girders of steel and panes of glass!"
Winston Zeddemore: "That's just mean super villain threats, Ray. All those guys talk like that."
Winston Zeddemore: "It's protecting itself!"
Egon Spengler: "Don't let it recharge!"
Ray Stantz: "Flying skulls! Flying skulls! Look out!!!"
Egon Spengler: "It's using shielding!"
Egon Spengler: "It's time! Cross the streams!"
Ivo Shandor: "I am a god!"
Ivo Shandor: "Noooooooo!!!!"
Cinematic
Ray Stantz: "We eat gods for breakfast?"
Egon Spengler: "Too much, you think?"
Ray Stantz: "No, I liked it."
Peter Venkman: "I've got you."
Peter Venkman: "New Guy. Your call."
Walter Peck: "This is not the last you'll see of me!"
Mayor Mulligan: "Ha, ha! The Ghostbusters! Hey, fellas! What are you doing here? Uh…what am I doing here? Uh… where is here?"
Mayor Mulligan: "Uh…what's that mean?"
Winston Zeddemore: "An evil ghost was walking around in your body for a few months."
Mayor Mulligan: "Oh. Did anyone notice? How's my approval rating?"
Egon Spengler: "Well, you got re-elected."
Peter Venkman: "By the way, you're a descendant of Shandor."
Ilyssa Selwyn: "Yeah…I kinda got that."
Ilyssa Selwyn: "What?"
Ilyssa Selwyn: "Venkman!"
