Ghostbusters: Resurrection

America’s newest Ghostbusting franchise is officially up and running! But it seems like no one noticed since it’s been about three weeks, and the crew hasn’t received a single call. While the guys don’t mind sitting around the firehouse all day, if they don’t start getting some business soon, they’re bound to close just as quickly as they opened. Thankfully, on a particularly boring day, the gang gets a call from the Orlando Police Department saying that they’re urgently needed downtown. A taxicab has thrown out its driver and passenger; and is currently driving itself! Traffic is backed up for miles, it’s almost rush hour, and this haunted taxi is showing no signs of stopping. At a time like this, who ya gonna call? Five trigger-happy rookies with nuclear accelerators and zero field experience. Join us as our inexperienced Busters venture out on their first case. They don’t believe in Ghosts (yet), but that won’t stop them from busting. Did we plan the launch of this episode around Bill Murray’s birthday? If that’ll make your listening experience that much better… let’s just go and say yes. Also, got a question for them? Notice some ghost or specter at night? Give them a ring: (321) 209-2020

It’s been couple of days since the incident downtown and the guys still haven’t been paid. Although they still have the hotel room key from that suspicious taxi passenger, the gang decides it’d be best to go on the next call and make some money before launching their investigation. A citrus farmer in Mount Dora says that ever since he started construction on his property, something has been digging graves in his orange grove. To make matters worse, members of his construction crew and family have been blacking out and waking up in the bottom of these freshly dug graves with no memory of how they got there. One thing’s for sure; whatever is doing this is getting stronger and more desperate. Will these greenhorn Ghostbusters be able to solve the case before being buried alive?

After their last terrifying encounter, the gang has decided to adopt the stray dog they found in the orange grove. While Nina takes it to get a check up and some food, the Ghostbusters receive a desperate call from an apartment building downtown. All of the tenants televisions turn on by themselves and then blast full volume until 11pm every night. Even when power is cut from the building, the power cords fuse themselves into the wall. Not only that, some of the children claim to have seen a ghost during that time. It’s become unbearable and has started to affect other nearby buildings; so the tenants have pooled all their money together and are begging the Ghostbusters to help. Can the gang put a stop to this phenomenon before it spreads across the whole city?

In this episode, Poole goes on a date to Medieval Times with Selena (the girl from their last job). Soon after, a call comes in from the Magic Kingdom. During the opening ceremony of the recently refurbished Pirates of the Caribbean ride, several guests were attacked by a pirate ghost! Things get complicated when the Ghostbusters arrive only to find out that the head ride supervisor doesn’t want them there. With a ghost attacking helpless tourists and a Disney security team on its way kick our heroes out of the park, the Ghostbusters will have to work fast to tackle their most dangerous challenge yet.

While Bjornstad is on a date, the remaining four Ghostbusters are called on to two different cases across town. First is a case where two repairmen from the telephone company have gone missing under mysterious circumstances. The second case involves a ghost physically abusing the waitstaff of an upper class social club downtown. Even with the help of their stalwart dog Tobin, it sounds like it’s going to be one action packed day of busting heads. (In a spiritual sense, of course.) But in the business of Ghostbusting, being busy usually means something bad is on the horizon.

After a busy afternoon, the Ghostbusters decide its time to order some new equipment. That same evening, the New York branch emails them blueprints for a boson dart modification, and Briggs starts building them. In the meantime, EPA Inspector Alan Friedman arrives but his visit is cut short as an emergency call comes in. The “Ripley’s Believe It Or Not!” on International Drive was hosting a rock show in their new venue space, when thousands of snakes started attacking the audience. Armed with their new Boson Dart modifications, and Bjornstad still out on his date, the Ghostbusters confidently charge in only to find themselves facing their most powerful foe yet!

While preparing for the arrival of the international Ghostbusters, the gang gets a surprise visit from Alan Friedman. They also get a call from an informant inside Occulto Veritas who reveals some hidden details about the taxi passenger from their first bust. Once the international busters arrive, a call comes in from Fort Christmas saying that a small army of ghosts has taken over the fort and are shooting trespassers on sight. Sounds like our heroes are going to need a bigger team if they’re going to break into this fortress.

After experiencing a large PKE Pulse the night before, the Ghostbusters get a frantic call from a family in Little Vietnam that says their young daughter is possessed by a powerful demon. Knowing that this is a problem that can’t be solved by a simple blast of proton beams, the guys decide to test out their new non-lethal invention: The Slime Net. Although this demon may prove to be more formidable than the Ghostbusters first expected, they’ll soon discover that this is only the beginning of the longest day of their lives.
