“Slimer in Sealand”

    It’s just a day at the beach; literally.  Slimer settles down for a nap after eating his usual share of food but ends up finding a mermaid named Cassandra amidst a pile of garbage.  After reviving her, she takes him for a romp through the ocean, passing by various forms of pollution along the way.  Finally, they reach Sealand where Cassandra comes from just in time for a massive oil spillage above the peaceful and clean undersea kingdom.  Slimer volunteers to investigate, but it may already be too late for Sealand due to mankind’s lack of environmental care.

“Cool Slime”

    It’s a blistering New York City day as the Junior Ghostbusters and Slimer play ball in front of the firehouse.  However, in the process of catching a high ball Slimer gets hit by an overheating tow truck.  Earl, it’s driver, discovers that the slime has actually cooled down his engine, and announces his discovery to his partner Elroy who comes up with the scheme to bottle and sell the stuff as engine coolant.  Luring Slimer to their garage with his favorite treats, they place him in a special machine that squeezes ectoplasm out of him like a juicer!  It’s up to Chilly now to rescue the spud and save his ectoplasm.
