Arriving at the museum, a crowd has formed, recording and snapping pictures of the slime-covered dome on the building. The Ghostbusters hopped out of the vehicle and stared at it. "Pull 'em." Ray murmurs. They pull out the proton guns, "Full nutronas." Spengler says as they charge their packs.
"Let's cook!" Ray orders. They blast, but to no avail, and stop blasting, "Save 'em!" Ray yells. The shell was too strong to be broken as the crowd boos and hisses, "C'mon! Aw, c'mon, Ghostbusters!"
"DUCK!" Someone in the crowd screams. The Ghostbusters turn around to see an apparition fly over the crowd and toward the slime mold. The boys duck and watch as the ghost slams into the mold but bounces back, hitting the ground in front of the crowd. The phenomenon floats back up slowly.
"Oh, my God." Winston turns to Spengler, "Is that?"
"It is."
The ghost turns around to reveal The Queen Class 5. She floated there, staring at them, then the mold. "That slime mold is pulsing with evil. It would take a tremendous amount of positive energy to crack that shell, and I seriously doubt there's enough goodwill left in this town to do it." Egon murmurs. He slowly moves closer to the Class 5 as she stares at the vehicle.
"You know, I just can't believe things have gotten so bad in this city that there's no way back. I mean, sure, it's dirty, it's crowded, it's polluted, it's noisy, and there's people all around who'd just as soon step on your face as look at you. But come on! There's got to be a few sparks of sweet humanity left in this burned-out burg, and we just have to figure out a way to mobilize it." Ray gazes at the Ghostbusters.
"He's right. We need something that everyone in this town can get behind; we need..." He bends down to stare at the license plate, "a symbol!" Spengler gazes at the Queen to see e/c eyes stare at him. She smiles and nods.
"Something that appeals to the best in each and every one of us." Ray gazes around the crowd.
Egon glimpses at Ray, "Something good."
Winston steps up to the vehicle, "Something decent."
"Something pure." Peter says. They stare at the... Statue of Liberty. The ghost opens her mouth, "You know what to do..." Y/N's voice comes through, making the boys smile. The Ghostbusters sprinted to the Statue of Liberty and stared at it, "Kind of makes you wonder, doesn't it?" Peter says. Ray turns his head to him, "Wonder what?"
"Whether she's naked under that toga. She's French. You know that."
Once inside the statue, Egon prepared the music, "Got it. Ready with the speakers, Ray. Slime blowers ready." The Queen floated next to him, holding a speaker and setting it on a stand. "Internal audio, set. Internal electric, set." Ray marks off what was all set and prepared. The ghost floated next to Peter.
"Slime blower, prime, set." Winston calls out.
Peter hugs the slime blowers, "Ooh. Good slime, good slime. Winston, is our slime in a good mood tonight?"
"I hope so. She's a lot bigger than a toaster."
The Queen giggles, "It's all yours, Venkman." She stole Spengler's line, making him stare at her, "You know, that's what I was about to say." The Queen feels Y/N laugh, "That's what I get for remembering lines from a movie..." She whispered. Egon and Peter stood, staring at the city outside the statue's crown.
"Thank you. Testing, one, two, testing. Hey, how many of you people out here are a national monument, raise your hand, please. Oh, hello, miss!" Peter speaks through the mic.
"Hey. Let's frost it." Winston stood on one side of the statue as Ray was on the other, "It's slime time." They blast slime all over the statue, "Beautiful!" The Queen watches the slime spread around the statue. Once they were done, they joined the others on the crown, "Pilot controls ready." Ray grabs the controllers.
"All right. It's getting late. It's almost midnight. Let's go, Venkman." Egon mentions. Peter takes the mic, making another announcement, "Here's something off the request line from Liberty Island. We're gonna squeeze some New Year's juice from ya, Big Apple!" Peter hits play, and the music, (Your Love Has Lifted Me) Higher and Higher, starts playing. The slime sparks, making the statue's torch explode. Lady Liberty starts walking.
"Man, I can't wait to see people's faces when we come on shore! This should really get the city's positive energy flowing, huh, Venkie!" Ray turns to Peter as Lady Liberty walks through the water. The Queen floated next to Spengler with a grin. Her eyes flashed between red and e/c.
"Keep kicking, Libby! You make this work; we'll pop for a weekend in Vegas with the Jolly Green Giant!" Peter yells. The statue walks down the street, catching everyone's attention. She wants to tell him, but it's not a good time. "Before the baby comes, Laura."
"I know."
"Yeah, New York!" Peter cheers.
"Sing it out!" Ray grins at Peter as he joins the song, "Your love... has lifted me higher!"
Winston laughs, "Come on, you sing!"
Egon glances at his watch, "We're running out of time, Ray." The Queen nervously stares at Spengler. "Can't you make her go any faster?" Winston asks.
"I'm afraid the vibrations would shake her to pieces. We should have padded her feet." Ray answered. Egon glances at the Queen, waiting to see if she is going to say something that he is about to say. "I don't think they make Nikes in her size, Ray." She spoke. Egon snorts, knowing she is going to say that.
Peter hugged the crown as they looked out, "Ah, don't worry, she's tough. She's a harbor chick!" The statue crushes a police car. Ray flinches and calls out, "Sorry! My fault!"
