Summary: Ray is reading Slimer some fairy tales but needs to cut one story short in order to go to bed.  Slimer doesn’t want story time to be over so he takes the book down the Containment room for a quiet space to read.  However a small dragon shows up and asks Slimer for help against two Ogres.  The Ogres show up and try to take the dragon but Slimer and the dragon escape to the ground floor.  Janine sees the Ogres and wakes the Ghostbusters who then show up and attack with their proton packs.  The Ogres capture Janine and escape with her. 
Armor to steal!

                The dragon explains that she is from the Realm of Fantasy and her enemy Orlox , a wizard, who needs a dragon’s heart to become invincible.  They decide to go to the Realm of Fantasy, whose gateway was in the subway.  When they enter the Ghostbusters find that Orlox has offered Janine’s hand in marriage to whoever brings the dragon to him.  The Ghostbusters steal knights’ armor and confront Orlox.  They battle the wizard ultimately trapping him.    
Rescue mission!

                The Realm of Fantasy is restored and the Ghostbusters go back home through the subway. 

My Take: So the Ghostbusters have found another dragon!  Since this dragon is the last in the Realm of Fantasy maybe Egon can wake his own dragon and send it to live in the Realm of Fantasy.  That way they can be both safely out of the way and mate to get more dragons.  Egon can call on them if he needs help or his cousins in Westeros do.

                Now for my stray observations:

·         Those poor subway riders.
·         Offering Janine’s hand in marriage.  A good thing the Ghostbusters didn’t bring it up because Janine would be happy to marry Egon.

Slimer needs to stop sneaking books with fairy tales off to the containment unit room.
