Summary: A trio
of ugly ghosts invades the firehouse to try to free their boss,
Spiderlegs. They fail but they kidnap
Slimer and leave a ransom note demanding her release. The
Ghostbusters have to air a song on the radio as the sign they complied. In the crooks’ layer, Slimer is flying
circles around them. The Ghostbusters
broadcast the song and use sound waves to track Slimer. They show up bust the ghosts and go home.

| Spiderlegs reminds me of the old Superman villain |
My Take: A fun
short little episode. Slimer had been
taken by humans before and lured by other ghosts but this is the first time he
was held hostage. Slimer’s standing with
other ghosts can’t be too good and there should be an episode about that.
Now for
my stray observations:
·
I am glad that the ghosts who tried to open the
Containment Unit failed, it should be more secure.
·
The porthole on the Containment Unit is stupid.
Not much more to say.
