Luke: It doesn't hurt to try and sleep again. Maybe this is the only ghost active. [Sleeps]
Phantom Mangle: Ugh... I can never get over the idea of glow-in-the-dark colors. To me, colors don't do anything. No effects at all.
Phantom Balloon Boy: Mrs. Mangle! You're awake! We have a soul in here!
Phantom Mangle: Soul?! It's been a while since we had another one of those. What are the ingredients of this "soul?"
Phantom Balloon Boy: He never told me what his recipe is. But he did advise me that I'll get minerals from rocks.
Phantom Mangle: Doesn't everyone know what their recipe is?
Phantom Balloon Boy: What I do know is that he likes to sleep for some reason.
Phantom Mangle: Okay, I'd like to meet this fellow. Maybe he has slime on him.
Phantom Balloon Boy: I don't know, Mr. Mangle. Slime is rarer than getting free candy.
Luke: [Sleeping]
Phantom Mangle: Well, hello there! Huh?
Luke: [Still sleeping]
Phantom Mangle: I guess BB is smart. He really does like to sleep. He doesn't even have slime on him, not even the nice ones.
Luke: [Yawns] What the? Are you trying to steal my money?
Phantom Mangle: Sorry, stranger. I was wondering if you have any slime on you. I love slime. But you seem to be empty-handed.
Luke: First candy, now slime? Whatever, it probably doesn't matter.
Phantom Mangle: Do you at least know what your recipe is? Recipes are in everyone. Ghosts like me are composed of air!
Luke: Ah, I'm not a ghost. You could say I'm made of flesh and bones.
Phantom Mangle: So you do know your ingredients. I won't call you a smarty-pants, though. The name's Mangle, by the way.
Luke: Hah, nice to meet you.
Phantom Mangle: Consider the depths of the sea around us. The countless sunken ships that have once tried to cross...
Luke: Okay?
Phantom Mangle: The fish that just swam in them and wonder what's going on... And the sea shells that represent each dead sailor...
Luke: Hm... Where are you getting at?
Phantom Mangle: Sounds like this place, isn't it? I wish I could find those sea shells. I can collect some as a new hobby.
Luke: Yeah, I guess being a collector is pretty fun. But there's no beach around here.
Phantom Mangle: Exactly why I fantasize about it. Oh, and slime. Slime is nice to touch. I find it way better than rubber bands.
Luke: Um... If a sunken ship is what this place seems like, I bet there might be sharks that lurk around... trying to eat us...
Phantom Mangle: Let's not speak of the sharks. They're hiding right now for a reason. I guess we'll meet again...
