  Peter Venkman : Spengler?

  [Chuckles] 

  Peter Venkman : Weird name, good luck with that.

• Peter Venkman : [archive audio from original film]  I believe that everything happens for a reason. Call it fate... call it luck... call it karma...

• [the three living Ghostbusters interact with their deceased friend, Egon] 

  Peter Venkman : Had a feeling you'd turn up.

  Ray Stantz : I'm sorry I didn't believe you.

  Winston Zeddemore : I should've called. I miss you, my friend.

  [Egon smiles] 

• Callie : [being cornered by Gozer]  Oh, no.

  [Gozer raises its hands and steadily sends lightning toward Callie and Phoebe, but before it reaches them...] 

  Peter Venkman : [off-screen]  Hey, flat-top!

  [Gozer looks toward the sound of the voice, stopping its attack. Callie and Phoebe look back too as they see Peter Venkman, Ray Stanz, and Winston Zeddemore standing there] 

  Peter Venkman : Have you missed us?

  Ray Stantz : Gozer the Gozerian! In the name of the county of Summerville, state of Oklahoma, the US Fish and Wildlife Service, all the members of Ducks Unlimited, the Association for the Advancement of Retired Persons, I command you under the National Invasive Species Act to depart this world immediately.

  Peter Venkman : Bravo.

  [Gozer growls and stares at them malevolently] 

  Winston Zeddemore : I think she remembers us.

  Gozer : [approaches them]  Are you... a god?

  Winston Zeddemore : [seeing Ray hesitate]  Ray?

  Peter Venkman : Oh, come on, Ray.

  Ray Stantz : Yes.

  Winston Zeddemore : Yeah, we're all gods.

  Peter Venkman : Yeah, I mean we're all pretty dang special down here. On a personal note: I thought that we had busted up for good. I mean, it wasn't working for me. My friends didn't think so, and I know yours didn't.

  [Zuul tries to attack, but Gozer signals her to stop] 

  Winston Zeddemore : Okay, playtime's over. Let's toast this muffin.

  [they get out their proton-wands] 

  Peter Venkman : Light them up.

  [they activate the wands] 

  Winston Zeddemore : Man, I love that sound.

  Peter Venkman : On the count of three, go on two. One, two...

  [they open fire on Gozer, restraining it] 

  Ray Stantz : Yeah, nothing stings like a billion electron volts!

  [they begin to cross the streams and Gozer leans forward in pain] 

  Callie : Yes!

  [Gozer grabs hold of the proton streams] 

  Winston Zeddemore : Did you feel that?

  Ray Stantz : Yeah.

  Peter Venkman : Uh-oh.

  [Gozer begins to pry the streams apart] 

  Ray Stantz : She's uncrossing the streams!

  [Gozer whips the streams back at the Ghostbusters, sending them flying back] 

  Callie : No!

  Podcast : Are they dead?

  Ray Stantz : [slowly getting up]  I don't remember this job being so painful.

  Winston Zeddemore : I do.

• [mid-credit scene; Dana is using Peter's old ESP machine with him hooked up] 

  Dana Barrett : [she holds up a card with three wavy lines]  Tell me what this is.

  Peter Venkman : [concentrating; closes eyes]  Lines. Two... no, t-three... wavy lines.

  Dana Barrett : [looks at Peter, looks at card and looks back at him; she turns the card to reveal three wavy lines]  That's amazing.

  Peter Venkman : You're amazing with your ability to flood my psychic powers.

  Dana Barrett : [Dana holds up another card]  I can't believe you used to shock your students.

  Peter Venkman : Between us, I only zapped the guys.

  [Dana flips a switch and Peter gets a shock] 

  Peter Venkman : Aah! It's for science. I know that now. I admit that.

  Dana Barrett : [still holding another card]  Ready? Try this one.

  [Peter catches his breath] 

  Dana Barrett : Take a moment.

  Peter Venkman : Uh... it's a five-pointed star? Yes?

  Dana Barrett : [smiles]  How are you doing that?

  Peter Venkman : Some believe that true love imbues a subject with the ability...

  [Dana shocks him again] 

  Dana Barrett : Did you mark the cards?

  Peter Venkman : [chuckling]  No.

  Dana Barrett : You did, didn't you?

  Peter Venkman : [pained]  Yeah.

  [Peter gets shocked again] 

  Peter Venkman : Aaaah!

  Dana Barrett : Works well.
