Denise had the weekend off so she decided to give Janine a hand. Poor woman looked exhausted and had so much paperwork and calls to take.

"The guys still haven't hired anymore help?" Denise asked.

"No, most people think this job's bogus", Janine said drinking more coffee.

"Well, I bet once they see ghosts, they believe."

Peter came in after running an errand or something.

"There's a man from the EPA here to see you", Denise told him. "He's waiting in your office."

"EPA?' Peter asked. "What does he want?"

"I don't know", Janine answered. "All I do know is that I've been working two weeks without a break and you promised me you'd hire more help."

"Janine, someone with your qualifications would have no trouble finding a top-flight job in either the food service or housekeeping industries."

She said nothing as the phone started ringing. Peter gave her a smile and nodded to the phone.

"You going to answer that?" he asked.

"I've quit better jobs than this", she grumbled as she sat down and picked up the phone. "Ghostbusters! What do you want?!"

"Hey, Janine", Denise said. "I'll make a deal with you. Every free chance I get, I'll come and help you out. Of course it'll have to be after I'm done grading assignments, but I'll come on my days off as a part-time job."

"Yeah?" Janine asked her.

"Sure! And I won't ask for payment. I already get paid enough at the school."

"You got a deal."

"Great", she said. "I'm going to go see if the guys need any help downstairs."


Egon, Ray and Winston sat down to have a snack and a smoke with the time off they had.

"I'm worried, Ray", Egon said looking at some notes he made about the storage facility. "It's getting crowded in there. And all my recent data points to something big on the horizon."

"What do you mean big?" Winston asked.

"Well. Let's say this Twinkie represents the normal amount of psychokinetic energy in the New York area. According this morning's sample, it would be a Twinkie thirty-five feet long weighing approximately six hundred pounds."

Ray took out his cigarette and coughed at the information Egon gave them.

"That's a big Twinkie", Winston said.

"Ray, are you alright?" Denise said as she ran downstairs.

"I'm fine", he answered. "We could be on the verge of a fourfold crossrip! A PKE surge of incredible, even dangerous proportions!"

"What?

Before Ray could explain, Peter came downstairs.

"We just had a visit from the Environmental Protection Agency", he announced. "How's the grid holding up?"

"Not good", Ray answered.

"Tell him about the Twinkie", Winston said.

Denise and Peter looked at each other for a minute before turning to Ray.

"What about the Twinkie, Ray?"

Ray gave a brief and simple explanation of what was going on with the ghosts and the grid. Denise looked at the storage facility and back at him worried.

"What's going to happen if the grid fails?" she asked.

"The whole system could blow up", Egon said. "And all the ghosts we've captured will be released back into the city."

"Let's not let that happen", Peter said. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have a date to get ready for."

Denise smiled as she shook her head. So Dana finally agreed to go out with Peter. It only took her, what, three weeks to agree?

"So Ray, are you doing anything tonight?"

"I need to go pick up some blueprints", Ray said. "Other than that, no."

"Well, you blew off dinner at my place", she brought up. "How about you and I go out for dinner tonight? My treat."

"That sounds great", he said. "It'll get me away from work for a few hours. I'd love to."

"Great", Denise said. "I need to go clean up around my classroom first. I don't want the custodian reporting to the dean that I don't keep a sanitary classroom."

The alarm in the firehouse went off meaning another job. Ray sighed as he looked at her.

"Let us take care of this call", he said. "I'll meet you in the classroom."

She nodded as she kissed his cheek.

"Go get 'em, tiger", she smiled.
