I don't know.

[The answer is automatic, and it's surprisingly honest. Venkman's brain is scrambled up horribly, and he genuinely can't tell anymore how much of anything he feels is influenced by the lack of fresh ADAM in his system. He knows he already disliked Kim, but he can't tell if he was always this furious with him. He can't tell how much of his paranoia is justified.

So Venkman errs on the side of caution, and doubles down on his mental defenses. What little he has left.

Get that guy to rehab, man. And yeah, I'm aware of the irony in me saying that. Don't give the drunken amnesiac a gun and put him in charge of "protecting people".

At Kim's last question, Venkman stares him down, wary and guarded and unbelievably tense. Carefully, he answers:]


Yes. Someone knows.

[The thoughts about the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man grow stronger as Venkman deliberately tries to think of anything but the man who conjured Stay Puft in the first place.]
