Quotes 

  • [Dana hands Oscar to Peter] 

    Dana : It's late, I really ought to put him down.

    Peter Venkman : May I?

    Dana : Yeah, if you want to.

    Peter Venkman : [points in baby's face]  You're short, your bellybutton sticks out too far, and you're a terrible burden on your poor mother.

  • Dana : Okay, but after dinner, don't put any of those old cheap moves on me. It's different now.

    Peter Venkman : Oh, no! I have all NEW cheap moves.

  • Dana : How is he these days?

    Egon : Peter? Well, he was borderline for a while. Then he crossed the border.

    Dana : Does he ever - mention me?

  • Peter Venkman : [to Dana]  Well you're probably feeling what Vigo's feeling: "Carpathian Kitten Loss." He misses his kitty! Well, we'll just place one in here right by the castle.

    [Peter grabs a brush and moves towards the Vigo painting] 

    Janosz : [Trying to stop Peter]  Don't go 'round altering valuable art, Dr. Venkman... go... yes, I think, go... the joyfulness is over!

    Dana : [to Janosz]  He's kidding.

    Peter Venkman : Well, you're not gonna get a green card with that attitude, pal!

  • Peter Venkman : So, what happened to Mr. Right? I heard he ditched you and went to Europe.

    Dana : He did not ditch me. We had some problems, and he got a very good offer from an orchestra in London and he took it.

    Peter Venkman : So he ditched you?

  • Peter Venkman : You never got it, Dana. I'm a man! I'm sensitive! I need to feel loved. I need to be desired!

    Dana : It was when you started introducing me as the old ball and chain, that's when I left.

  • Dana : His name is Oscar.

    Peter Venkman : Named after a hot dog. You poor man. You poor, poor man.

  • Dana : You're much better than you realize. You don't give yourself enough credit.

    Peter Venkman : I need to hear that kind of stuff. You know, if I had this kind of stuff for like on a 24-hour basis, I could have myself whipped into shape by the end of this century.

  • Peter Venkman : Dana, the guys are going down to the sewer to check for slime stuff. And Egon thinks there may be a huge surge in cockroach breeding. Want to blow off this dinner thing and go with them?

    Dana : Taxi!

  • Janosz : This is Prince Vigo, the ruler of Carpathia and Moldavia.

    Peter Venkman : Bit of a sissy, isn't he?

    Janosz : He was a very powerful magician, Dr. Venkman. And, a genius in many ways.

    Dana : He was also a lunatic and a genocidal madman. I hate this painting.

  • Dana : You know, I think we got more food on your shirt than we did in your mouth. Bath... yes, bath. It's your favorite thing. Bath. It's your favorite thing! It's your favorite thing! Because I know what you get to do. You know what you get to do? You know what's more fun than anything? Huh? Splash Mommy. "I get to splash Mommy!" Yes! Now to get ready for this, Mommy's going to take her shirt off too...

    [Takes off shirt, picks Oscar up. Turns around. The mass of pink slime reaches for Oscar and attacks; Dana screams and runs] 

  • Dana : So what do you think?

    Peter Venkman : Well, he's ugly. I mean, he's not Elephant Man ugly, but he's not attractive. Was his father ugly?

    Dana : [to Oscar]  Don't listen.

    Peter Venkman : And he stinks! You're ripe, Senor! Did his father stink? Yeah, I bet Daddy was smelly, wasn't he?

    Dana : But seriously, there's nothing... unusual about him, is there?

    Peter Venkman : Well, I don't have a lot of experience with babies... but you're excited now, because Mama's here to get your stool sample!

    Dana : Stool sample?

    Peter Venkman : Yeah...

  • Peter Venkman : Dana, did you see some shirts here in the floorboard area?

    Dana : Yeah, I put them in the hamper.

    Peter Venkman : I have a hamper?

  • Janine Melnitz : Hi Dana, how was your date?

    Dana : Well, it wasn't a date. It was just dinner.

    Louis Tully : Where's Peter?

    Dana : Oh, he's arrested.

    Janine Melnitz : Typical.

  • Dana : Hello, Peter.

    Peter Venkman : [whips around Melodramatically, and speaks in a soap opera-esque deep tone]  Hello, Dana.

  • Peter Venkman : What's his name?

    [to Oscar] 

    Peter Venkman : What's you're name, little guy?

    Dana : His name is Oscar.

    Peter Venkman : [to Oscar]  Named after a hot dog. You poor man. You poor, poor man.

  • Janosz : You don't need anything? You know? You want me to come in?

    Dana : No, thank you.

    Janosz : Ah, well, just thought that I would check. You know. Well, hey you, don't let de bed bugs bite.

  • Peter Venkman : You're good, pretty eyes.

    Dana : I didn't paint it. I'm just cleaning it. It's a Gauguin.

    Peter Venkman : Well, I've heard of him.

  • Dana : The most awful thing happened. The bathtub. The bathtub was trying to eat Oscar! I was giving him a bath. There was all this pink ooze everywhere and it was reaching for him.

  • Peter Venkman : I've also brought some things from your apartment. Some wardrobe choices. A couple of provocative ensembles in here. I'll leave it up to you.

    Dana : Okay, but, after dinner, don't put any of those old cheap moves on me. Okay?

    Peter Venkman : No, no. No, no.

    Dana : It's different.

    Peter Venkman : I have all new cheap moves.

  • Dana : So, how are we going to handle the sleeping arrangements?

    Peter Venkman : Well, what's best for me is if I lie on my side like this and you spoon up beside me, your arm draped over me. We do it the other way, I get your hair caught in my throat and I choke in the night.

    Dana : Well, how about you on the sofa and me and the baby in the bed.

  • Dana : [steps out of the bathroom, wet, wearing only a towel]  So, what happened with my apartment?

    Peter Venkman : Well, the guys spent the whole night there. They went through all your things, your personal stuff. They tried on some of your clothes. Made some personal phone calls. Cleaned out the fridge.

    Dana : Did they find anything?

    Peter Venkman : They found a little bit of that pink slime.

    Dana : Oh, God. Well, what am I supposed to do now?

    Peter Venkman : *You* are supposed to get dressed and get crazy with me on the streets of Manhattan tonight. Let's go.

  • Dana : A toast to - the most charming, kindest...

    Peter Venkman : Oh, it's me.

    Dana : It's you. And most unusual man - I've ever broken up with.

    Peter Venkman : Speaking of breaking up with neat guys, why did you dump me?

    Dana : I didn't dump you. I was - protecting myself. I mean, you weren't very good for me, you know. You know that, don't you?

    Peter Venkman : Well, heck, I'm not even good for me.

    Dana : You're much better than you realized. You don't give yourself enough credit.

    Peter Venkman : I need to hear that kind of stuff. If I had this kind of support, on a 24 hour a day basis, I'd have myself whipped into shape by the end of this century.

    Dana : Well, why don't you just give me a jingle in the year 2000.

    Peter Venkman : Why don't I give you - a jingle right now.

  • Dana : [holding Oscar]  You stay away from us, Janosz. I mean it.

    Janosz : Oh, don't worry. He will not be harmed. He has been chosen - to be the vessel of the spirit of Vigo. And you - will be the mother of the ruler of the world. Doesn't that sound nice?

  • Dana : Is he - dead?

    Ray : Uh-uh. This slime is positively charged. He'll wake up feeling like a million bucks.

  • Janosz : Soon it will be midnight, and the city will be mine and Vigo's! Well, mainly Vigo's. Oh, Dana, you and I have this terrific opportunity to make the best of this relationship.

    Dana : We don't have a relationship.

    Janosz : I know! Marry me, Dana. Together, we will raise Vigo as our son. And let me tell you something here. There are many perks in being the mother of a living god. I'm sure we could get a magnificent apartment, a car, free parking... Many marriages begin with a certain of distance, yet I think that perhaps you and I could learn to... love each other.

    Dana : [pretends to be intrigued]  Yes. I could learn.

  • Janosz : Four minutes to go, and then, party times!

    [the evil soul of Vigo the Carpathian is about to possess Oscar, Dana Barrett's child] 

    Dana : [horrified]  Oscar...

    [Dana attempts to grab the baby, but Janosz pushes her back] 

    Janosz : [excited]  It's happening. It's really happening!

    [Just as the possession is nearly completed, the Ghostbusters, in the animated Statue of Liberty, appears. The slime barrier starts to partially recede from the glass ceiling; Janosz is frustrated] 

    Janosz : Wha- No. Go! No, go away from here!

    [Dana successfully grabs Oscar, thus stopping Vigo from possessing the baby] 

    Janosz : Go away!

    [Outside, the partygoers are cheering in excitement as Ray pilots the statue's torch] 

    Peter Venkman : I love it when you roughhouse!

    Egon : Hit it, mama!

    Ray : DROP THE HAMMER ON HER!

    Winston : Go! Do it!

    [the torch smashes through the glass ceiling as Janosz watches in shock and frustration; the rappel cords are thrown from the crown] 

    Dana : Oh, Oscar, look!

    Janosz : Go away!
