But Spengler, Venkman, Stantz, and Winston are reunited to help rid the city of a terrible green slime that has taken root under New York City. It all starts with a baby buggy running away from Lane, the mother of the baby inside - which leads our heroes chasing down the source of the power that caused the buggy to run away. Apparently, a painting in the Museum of Art (where Lane works), holds the soul of a nasty man that wants to inhabit Lane's baby's body, and Lane's co-worker Jason is in cahoots with the painting! Our heroes, who have been experimenting with the green slime they have found, learn that it gets mean and menacing when people are mean, and becomes a controllable substance when people are nice. So, they get inside the Statue of Liberty~ and travel the streets of New York playing friendly music ("Everything Is Beautiful"), which has a positive effect on the slime. Lane is reunited with her b~30y, Jason and the painting are destroyed, and life is returned to normal (?) in New York City~ POTENTIAL EXPOSURE: A LUCKY STRIKE DARTBOARD will 5e a favorit~ toy in Bill Mu[ray's apartment.
