-[eerie music playing] -[siren wailing]

...then I screamed and it ran into the woods.

My son said it kept telling him to come out and play.

[haunting voice] Come out and play, child.

Come out and play, child.

Kylie, you all right?

Yeah. Little dizzy. I'm okay.

[Garrett] Yo, Busters.

Our ghosty's been leaking a little ooze.

-[PKE meter beeping] -The better to follow its trail with.

Who are those guys?

Scientists, like myself.

[grunting]

[groans] A little tarmac would be nice.

[beeping]

The motherlode.

Ew. He's gonna touch it.

[Kylie] I see it!

[eerie music playing]

I love off-roading!

[grunts, then groans]

Four-wheel drive would be nice.

Later, 'gator.

[grunts] Side stitch.

[chuckles]

[Kylie and Roland panting]

-[roars] -[yells]

[grunting] Kylie!

[snarls]

[gasps]

Come out and play, child.

Come out and play.

Come out and play.

[Roland] Kylie!

-[tense music playing] -[Roland grunting]

[Kylie grunts]

[exhales]

Oh, Kylie, I owe you one.

A big one.

[eerie music playing]

-[car horns honking] -[siren wailing distantly]

[whimsical music playing]

G.I. Casey to Central Command.

The enemy will soon be contained.

[laughs]

[computer beeping]

It has to be in here somewhere.

-Hey! Ha! -[whistle blows, then crowd cheers on TV]

-Anyone see my little brother? -Yes!

I was giving him a tour and he, uh, wandered off.

Casey's loose. [sucks through teeth]

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Hm. Very funny, Garrett.

You know Casey's a great kid.

[whimsical music playing]

[laughs]

[Roland] Casey, what are you doing?

Uh, just looking for ghosts.

Aw, like your big brother.

Slimer's a ghost. Where is he?

[yawns]

-Whoa. -[shivering]

Slime-stole.

Uh, Slimer's a friendly ghost.

I wanna see the ghosts you said were in the basement.

The scary ones with claws and fangs.

Roland.

Uh... right. Sorry, Case, the basement's off-limits.

Come on.

What a rip.

[whimsical music playing]

Hm...

Have a seat, bro.

Mom will be here soon.

Ah!

Not soon enough.

The biochemical makeup of the ooze is unlike any I've encountered before.

Though it contains familiar traces,

Grundel-esque traces.

"Grundel-esque"?

As in the Grundel,

a supernatural parasite that preys upon children

by transforming the willing child into a Grundel like itself.

What do you mean "willing child"?

A potential bad seed.

Someone with the capacity, however hidden,

for wrongdoing.

Well, that counts you out, huh, Case?

[grunts]

Gee, I must have run over a broom.

The child has to be receptive to the Grundel's lure of fun and games.

Egon, the thing at the window,

it tried to get the boy to come out and play.

We must be dealing with the Grundel.

That was my first thought, Kylie, but it's highly unlikely.

You see, there's only one Grundel,

and Ray, Winston, Peter and I trapped it 10 years ago.

You said it transformed children into Grundels.

Every child returned to his or her normal state

when we captured it.

Well, how can you be sure it's still trapped?

There's one way. Check the containment unit.

Yes!

[beeping]

There. Each ectoplasmic entity has its own frequency pattern.

Just as every human has his or her own genetic code.

This one belongs to the Grundel.

As you can see, he's still in the containment unit.

Egon, how can you be sure there's only one Grundel?

Maybe there's something we don't know.

Maybe we should talk to the Grundel itself.

Kylie, you know rule number one.

Never open the containment unit.

Ever.

-[melancholy music playing] -[sighs]

[car horn honking]

Uh, Casey, that's Mom.

I'll be home soon, Mom.

Roland, can I talk to you?

Kylie, I don't like this.

You don't gotta like it, Roland.

You owe me one, remember?

I know, but we're defying Egon's direct orders.

[music stops]

I thought you respected him.

Hey, I respect him more than anything.

Then why are you doing this, Kylie?

I---

I don't know!

[Roland] When the Grundel's frequency pattern comes up,

this valve will project him into our space.

While keeping him locked in a containment field?

If it works according to plan.

[beeping]

[beeps]

We're locked on.

[alarm blaring]

[laughing hysterically]

That's not him.

Sorry.

[beeping]

[alarm blaring]

[both gasp]

[yawns, then grunts]

I was having such a lovely nightmare.

[Grundel laughs]

It was all about you!

[gasps]

Made you flinch.

-Look, Grundel, we need information. -[ominous music playing]

What can you tell us about your partner in crime?

Now, why would you presume that I, the Grundel...

have a partner?

Wouldn't be trying to trap me, would you?

I---

I need to know.

Are there others like you?

This is personal, isn't it? [chuckles]

Why are you so interested in me? Hm?

I---

I don't know.

I do, Kylie.

He knows your name. How?

Of course I know her name.

After all, I used to watch her sleep.

[chuckles] Such fond memories.

Come out and play, child.

Come out and play.

-Come out and play. -[thunder rumbling]

[whimpers, then sobs]

[Grundel] Kylie, you were strong.

You refused to come out and play.

So instead, I had to pay your little friend,

Jack, a visit.

Jack?

[laughing]

[haunting music playing]

Jack?

Jack?

-Come and play, child. -[thunder crashes]

Come out and play.

Jack, come back! Come back!

Don't open the window!

[snarls]

No!

No!

[eerie music playing]

I remember now. You took Jack!

Only because I couldn't have you, Kylie.

Where is he? What did you do with Jack?

[Egon] What do you mean someone's in the house?

Sounds like Egon.

Why, I haven't seen his smiling face in years.

And you're not gonna see it now.

No! Jack!

Are you crazy? Egon's coming.

Pity. I guess you'll never know about Jack.

[door opens]

You see, Slimer? It's just the storm.

-[footsteps retreating] -[door closes]

[sighs] That was too close.

Who the heck is Jack?

-A friend. My only friend. -[somber music playing]

He was 7 years old when he disappeared.

Jack never came back.

Nobody believed my story.

I must have blocked it from my memory until now.

Look, Kylie. I'm sorry.

But the Grundel, he could be messing with your mind.

Egon said every child that transformed into a Grundel changed back.

Why not Jack?

I---

I don't know.

But I'm gonna find out.

Well, find out some other way.

This is too risky.

And we're even.

-[thunder crashes] -[snarls]

[ominous music playing]

[haunting voice] Come out and play, child.

Come out and play.

Come out and play.

Yes. Yes.

Open the window, we'll go away,

far from all the adults.

[dog barks, then growls]

[barking]

[rings]

Hello?

[Egon] Kylie, sorry to call so late.

We have an emergency call in your area.

The others are on their way.

[ominous music playing]

Great. I'm half-asleep and I'm wet.

[growling]

The monster, it went that way.

[tense music playing]

-[grunts] -[grunts, then groans]

-[PKE meter beeping] -Some windshield wipers would be nice.

[yells]

Hit-and-run driver!

[driver] What the...?

[Kylie] Hold it!

[proton pack energizes]

[snarls]

-Jack? -Kylie!

[snarls]

Wait, stop!

Was he your Grundel?

No. Egon was right.

It wasn't a Grundel.

[melancholy music playing]

-Hm. -[music fades]

Case. You okay, buddy?

I got to leave for a little while. Sleep tight.

You ain't going alone, sucker.

[ominous music playing]

[groans] Come on, come on!

[Roland clears throat]

I knew you'd be here.

What are you gonna do, Roland? Bust me?

You don't have to help, you know.

We're even, remember?

I wanna help.

On the bridge, it was Jack, wasn't it?

Yeah.

[laughs]

-[snoring] -[laughs]

[Roland] Ready when you are.

[Kylie] Do it.

[alarm blaring]

Ah, back so soon, petulant child?

I've missed you too. Pined for you, even.

Cut the chatter, creep. I saw Jack tonight.

Oh.

I see.

Why is he still a Grundel? Why is he different?

I knew Jack wasn't a keeper.

Unlike the others, he was strong of mind and will.

Your influence, no doubt.

So I placed him in a cocoon of sorts to let him mature,

develop,

gestate.

Little did I know

that Egon and his colleagues were about to do me in.

So, there Jack remained within that tree until, well,

recent events. [chuckles]

Release Jack now.

And how do you intend to make me do that?

You have nothing to offer me, except my freedom.

No deals, Grundel.

Release me first.

After all, Kylie, if I were free,

you could trap me all over again.

Isn't that what you want? Revenge?

No.

I don't want revenge.

I just want Jack.

Then let me go!

No deal.

[Grundel] But you must do as I say.

You want to free me, you must free me.

You will free me.

You will release me!

[thunder crashes]

[laughs]

Casey, you all right?

Roland?

[ominous music playing]

Now, there are two Grundels out there.

Thanks to me.

[haunting music playing]

[Grundel laughs]

Come out and play, child. Come out and play.

Come out and play.

[gasps] Master.

Come, disciple, let us steal the soul of a very special child.

Aw! Do I have to go to bed?

Yes, and I've got to get back to the firehouse.

And no TV.

[yawns]

Don't worry, I'm pooped.

No TV.

Sucker.

[audience laughing on TV]

Kylie, you took part in a serious breach of security tonight.

Egon, I take full responsibility for everything.

We'll discuss your conduct later.

Right now, we have a very dangerous situation

on our hands.

Okay, you're the Grundel.

You've been trapped in the containment unit for 10 years

and you've just escaped.

Where would you go?

Somewhere that's got dancing girls and an all-you-can-eat buffet.

No. I'd go after a willing child.

This is New York, girl. Take your pick.

Not just any willing child.

One I've already got my claws in.

Casey.

[ominous music playing]

[audience laughing on TV]

[car tires screech on TV]

[Grundel] Casey, we're here.

Yes. Come out and play.

[thunder crashes]

You want to have fun, don't you?

Yeah. I never get to have any fun.

My brother's a party pooper.

Well, you could play with us in a place far away.

Where brothers don't exist.

[siren wailing]

Looking for the Grundel?

No, you.

I don't want to alarm you, Roland,

but we should keep an eye on Casey.

Why? The Grundel doesn't want him.

The Grundel only wants bad kids.

Hello? Earth to Roland.

What?

Oh, yes. That's right.

Open the window.

Come out and play. Be like us.

[tires screeching]

[all gasp]

[dramatic music playing]

Casey!

There he is.

[Roland] Casey?

[gasps]

[Kylie grunting]

Kylie.

Oh, at last.

Case! Where you going, kid?

[yells]

[Eduardo] Uh...

Here you go.

Casey?

Rolly, I'm scared.

[dramatic music playing]

[yells]

-Garrett! -Garrett!

Payback!

[snarling]

-[proton pack energizes] -Later, snake eyes.

-No. -Reason?

It's not the Grundel. It's Jack.

So where is the Grundel?

I've waited for this moment, Kylie.

Ten long years.

[tense music playing]

You don't scare me. You can't make me one of yours.

I have no illusions.

I just wanna watch you sleep.

Forever.

[grunts] No!

-[grunting] -[laughing]

[roars]

-Nobody touches my family. Or friends. -[dramatic music playing]

[Grundel roars]

[music stops]

You all right?

Yeah.

Now, I owe you one.

[Casey] Roland!

[hopeful music playing]

It's okay, Case. It's all over.

-[door opens] -[Garrett] Hey, Kylie.

Friend of yours?

Jack.

Kylie?

[Kylie] Jack!

Why don't you just kiss him?

We got a lot of catching up to do,

after we find your parents.

[Kylie] Egon, I don't deserve to wear this.

I disobeyed your orders.

I'm glad you did, Kylie.

-You are? -[hopeful music playing]

Yes.

If you hadn't, Jack might have been lost forever.

You see, the ooze sample I analyzed threw me off-track

because it was somehow saturated with...

ear wax.

[whimsical music playing]
