DANA:

That's not true. It was 1620.

VENKMAN:

Same difference.

STANTZ:

What's your story, Pete?

VENKMAN:

Me? I'm a little of everything. Some Irish,

some German, some French, Dutch -- the women

in my family slept around. And that's what

made this country great.

DANA:

That's a terrible thing to say.

VENKMAN:

So what? It's a free country.

the CAMERA PULLS UP and AWAY FROM the island TO a HIGH SHOT of the

Statue, lower Manhattan and the shining sea beyond.

FADE OUT.
