“Slimer and the Ghostly Egg!”

    Slimer is hard at work making sand sculptures, but becomes disappointed when the Junior Ghostbusters turn down his offer to join him.  He tries to get over it by making a new kind of sculpture when a large egg lands on it and destroys it.  Slimer dedicates himself to investigating all the local birds to find out who the egg belongs to.  Meanwhile, Professor Dweeb and Elisabeth snatch the egg in order to lure Slimer into his final fate.  Unfortunately for them, the egg is about to hatch!

“Ray’s From The Grave”

    Ray had gone off on a bust on his own, and wound up trapped in a parallel dimension while his captors plot to enter our world.  Meanwhile, the others arrive on the scene and try to devise a way to get Ray out.  Egon finds a back door portal inside the toilet, and devises a plan.  However, the ghosts aren’t ready to give Ray up without a fight, and they can’t risk blasting them until they get Ray out, lest he be stuck…forever!

“An Inspectre Calls”

    Ray and Peter arrive on the scene of a call, only to find that a man dressed as a Pilgrim had already taken care of the problem.  He reveals he’s Josiah Ezekial Hopewright who has come to inspect New York and bring peace and Godliness to it.  That’s when someone runs out and says that another ghost is terrorizing the nearby supermarket.  Meanwhile, Ray and Peter are trying to wrap their heads around their new competition… especially when he makes a ghost explode right before their eyes.  Is this powerful preacher their newest ally, their greatest competition, or something far, far worse?
