~University to Firehouse

The five scientist walk through the University grounds with Peter, Ray, and Camila at the front while both Charli and Egon at the back.

Egon was typing on his calculator while Charli was checking on her students assignment, she would sometimes look at Egon from time to time. She heard him mumble something, "Yes?" she ask him.

"According to these new readings, I think we have an excellent chance of actually catching a ghost." he explained to her.

"Really?" she ask, he nodded and showed her his calculator. She look at the calculator for a moment, yes she understand his readings but also don't. "Interesante" Interesting, he nodded and the two walk towards the group while Egon filled them in about their chance of catching a ghost.

"Well, this is great! If this ionization rate is constant for all ectoplasmic entities, we could really bust some heads! In a spiritual sense, of course." Ray said excitedly.

"Spengs? You serious about this catching a ghost?" Peter ask him.

"I'm always serious." He replied to him.

"Egon, I'm gonna take back some of the things I've said about you," Peter said giving him a candy bar, "You... you've earned it." (Yes he did ^^). Both Ray and Charli smiled at their friends as they continue their walk inside the University.

"The possibilities are, are limitless!" ray said before walking in to see Dean Yaeger waiting for them with a mischievous smile on his face. "Hey, Dean Yeager!" Ray greeted him, while the five walk inside.

"I trust you're moving us to better quarters on campus?" Peter ask him, while eyeing the boxes moving in and out.

"No! You're being moved off campus. As for you two," he pointed at the Lopez sisters "are also moving off campus" The girls look at one anther then back at the dean.

"Why?" Camila ask angrily while clutching the cross on her collar.

"The board of regents has decided to terminate your grant. You are to vacate these premises immediately." He answer to them.

 "This is preposterous. I demand an explanation." Peter said with a scoff.

"Fine. The university will no longer continue any funding of any kind for your group's activities" Charli looks at Egon who shrugged his shoulders, Charli sighed and clutches her crystal necklace.

"But the kids love us!"

"Dr. Venkman, we believe that the purpose of science is to serve mankind. You, however, seem to regard science as some kind of dodge or hustle. Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy and your conclusions are highly questionable. You, Dr. Venkman, are a poor scientist."

"I see." Peter said and look at his five colleagues.

"I'll takes those, Dr. Lopez" Charli scoffed and gave him the papers, "Estúpido" she curses softly before leaving with the others.

The five walk out of the university and inside the bank, as Ray sold his house that his parents left him since he was born.

"You're never going to regret this, Ray!" Peter said while the exiting the bank with the four right behind him.

"My parents left me that house. I was born there!"

"You're not going to lose the house. Everybody has three mortgages nowadays, even the girls." He gestured to Charli and Camila, "Hush, Venkman." Camila said.

"But at nineteen percent? You didn't even bargain with the guy!" Ray exclaimed.

"Ray, for your information, the interest rate alone for the first five years comes to $95,000." Egon explained while showing the others the numbers on the calculator, "That's half of our parents gave us when me and Charli left the family business years ago." Camila said which made Charli giggled.

"Will you guys relax? We are on the threshold of establishing the indispensable defense science of the next decade. Professional paranormal investigations and eliminations," Peter explained, Charli looks at Egon with a 'Is he serious?' look on her face. He nodded , "The franchise rights alone will make us rich beyond our wildest dreams."

"And where's that?" Charli ask him, Peter wrap an arm around her. "You'll see Charli."

"There's office space, sleeping quarters and showers on the next floor and a full kitchen on the top left." The Real Estate woman explained to Charli, Egon, and Peter who are looking at the abandon Fire house.

"It just seems a little pricey for a unique fixer-upper opportunity, that's all." Peter said to the Real Estate woman.

"What do you think, Egon?" Charli ask while tucking a strand of her short hair behind her ear. Egon gestured his fingers to follow him, "I think this building should be condemned. There's serious metal fatigue in all the load-bearing members, the wiring is substandard, it's completely inadequate for our power needs, and the neighborhood is like a demilitarized zone." He explained to her.

"Hey! Does this pole still work?" Ray yelled above the two scientist, he then slid down the fire pole. "Wow! This place is great! When can we move in? You've got to try this pole! I'm gonna get my stuff." Ray exclaimed while going up the stairs, "Hey, we should stay here tonight. Sleep here! You know, to try it out!"

Camila and Peter walk up to the two scientist, the three look at Egon who slowly shook his head. Peter then looks at The Real Estate woman, "I think we'll take it."
