Okay, meet Peter Venkman. A tall man in his mid-thirties who the Real Ghostbusters betray him as athletic build at 190 pounds. Well, he started out that way through his younger years, but as he got older, he put on about fifty pounds. So now he's pudgy. Well, if you're lazy and eat junk food all the time, it will catch up to you.
Let's talk about another tall man that has a thing for junk food. Egon Spengler. He started out at a healthy 180 pounds, but has put on sixty pounds by the age of thirty-three. Ray was already pudgy at 260 pounds, but their TV show thought that skinny is sexy. So, the show made Ray skinny by season three and kept Egon and Peter the same throughout, even though they gained a lot of weight. As for Winston, he is the only one who hasn't changed physically.
Then let's also talk about Janine Melnitz, who's had a crush on Egon when he was under 200 pounds and physically in shape. Now, she could barely look at him without feeling repulsed by his protruding abdomen and thicker thighs.
So, it's June of 1991. Janine comes into work, from a lunch break and sees a young girl that looks to be ten years old by her desk. Janine assumes that there must have been another school field trip through the firehouse and the girl just looks lost. Janine approaches her.
Janine: Hi, I'm Janine Melnitz. Are you lost?
April: Excuse me?
Just for a visual reference, April is a dwarf version of Ray.
Janine: Your class. I assume there was another 5th grade field trip that came through the firehouse while I was on break.
April: I'm not lost. I'm just waiting.
Janine: For your parents to pick you up? How sweet. Anyways, what you think of the Ghostbusters?
April: Fascinating, to be honest.
Janine: I honestly thought you'd be disappointed.
April: Why would you think that?
Janine: Look, you're ten and I'm not expecting you to understand.
April: Try me.
Janine: I honestly think they should change their names to "Gut busters". I mean, have you seen them? Without those baggy uniforms, they're just fat. I mean, Winston is the only one in descent shape. As for the others?
April: So, they gained weight. It happens to middle-aged men, right?
Janine: They look like plumbers. Peter is so fat, if I had to drive around him, I'd run out of gas. Ray, he's so fat, he'd play pool with the planets.
April: And Egon?
Janine: I used to like him; you know. Now, he just disgusting. He's so fat, he has his own zip code.
Then April looks at her watch.
April: Well, it was nice chatting with you, Ms Melnitz. I got a ride to catch.
Then April gives Janine a smirk before leaving the firehouse. The next day, it is morning and April is seen sitting with Ray Stantz at the breakfast table.
Ray: So, how's school?
April: The end of my Sophomore year can't come soon enough, Ray. Then the others come to the table and sit down with their toast and coffee.
Ray: Guys, this is my cousin, April. She'll be coming by the firehouse more often once school lets out for the summer.
Peter: School, huh? What grade?
April: I'm currently a high school Sophomore.
Peter: No offense, but you look younger, than sixteen.
April: I'm seventeen and look ten, cause I'm a dwarf.
Winston: Your parents don't mind you being here?
April: No. My mom, whom you met before, doesn't mind and my dad left when he realized that I'll be stuck at 4'3".
Peter: We met your mom?
Ray: Of course. Remember my Aunt Lois? That's April's mom.
That's when Janine comes in with a work sheet. She's surprised to see April at the table.
Janine: Morning guys.
Ray: Morning. Janine, meet my cousin, April. She'll be helping out around the firehouse after school let's out for the summer.
Janine: Your cousin?
April: Remember Lois? That's my mom.
Ray: I'd figured, since she just turned seventeen back in April, she'd be old enough for a summer job. Aunt Lois is okay with it.
Peter: What it is you want, Janine?
Janine: You all have a call on 5th Avenue. A ghost making a mess of everything.
Winston: Sure. We'll get right on that.
All the Ghostbusters get up and leave the room. Janine looks over at April, who's smirking at Janine.
Janine: You haven't told the guys what I said, right?
April: Not really.
Janine: Good. You can't tell them.
April: It will cost you an apology to me. Good day.
April gets up and walks passed Janine.
It was a rush for the Ghostbusters to get ready to go on their first job of the day. April has walked up behind Egon, who's in a line with Peter outside the bathroom. Egon, who has been quiet at the breakfast table, was crossing his legs and struggling to go to the bathroom. Soon after Peter went in, April watched from behind as Egon pooped his pants. She stood there amazed and surprisingly turned on as the big lump that appeared in the back of his uniform.
Embarrassed, Egon turned around and his face turns red when he notices April.
Egon: It's not what you think.
April: I saw nothing.
After Peter left the bathroom, Egon followed him and the others downstairs. April watched from the railing, the Ghostbusters get in their car and take off. Janine ends up walking passed her and April makes a comment.
April: You know, now that you no longer fantasize about Egon, can I have him?
Janine: Be my guest and good luck getting him to notice you. I swear he's either gay or asexual.
April: Is that your apology?
Janine: No, cause if he wasn't into me, I doubt he likes midgets too.
As Janine walks away, April sneers at her. She hates being called a midget.
It's now a week later and Saturday, June 22nd. April is out of school for the summer. During that whole week while being in school, all April could think about was Egon and catching him at a vulnerable moment. Just remembering arouses her constantly.
April happens to be watching TV on the couch when she is joined by the other Ghostbusters. She doesn't mind the company; cause she enjoys the distraction.
April: Ray, I hope I get to do more, than watch TV here at the firehouse.
Ray: What do you want to do?
April: Go on a job with you guys. I mean, I'm not asking to use one of the proton packs. Maybe I can help with the ghost traps.
Ray: It's fine with me if it's fine with the others.
Peter: I'm okay with it.
Winston: We can always use the extra help.
Egon again is quiet and the others notice.
Winston: Earth to Egon. Why you so quiet, man?
Egon: I'm just thinking, Winston.
April is feeling like she must tell them all what Janine has said about them behind their backs.
April: Guys, if Janine was insulting you guys behind your backs, would you wanna know about it?
Peter: I should be used to Janine's insults by now.
Ray: What she saying about us, April?
April: When she knew who I was, she had no problem insulting you guys about your weight. Well, not Winston, cause she said he's perfect.
