The Ghostbusters and Slimer are on a job, when Slimer is asked to search in an alley. He finds a smelly, slug-like monster who offers him a bite of a sandwich, before swiping it away. He then clobbers Slimer with trash can lids and throws him up the alley like a frisbee.

Slimer and the guys regroup, then he points them in the direction of the villain, who's called the Sleaze. The Ghostbusters aim their proton packs at him, but he claims he gives up. When they decide not to shoot him, however, he throws trash at them, so they trap him.

After locking him in the containment unit, Slimer teases the Sleaze with a sandwich the same way he did to him before. Ray warns Slimer not to tease the Sleaze, but gets interrupted by the alarm ringing before he can tell him why. Slimer nods at Ray's warning, but after Ray leaves, blows a raspberry at the Sleaze. Then, he eats the sandwich, causing the Sleaze to roar. This scares Slimer, so he flies back... and accidentally shuts off the containment unit.

The Sleaze escapes, but luckily, Slimer turns it back on before other ghosts can escape. Slimer meets the Sleaze on the roof, but the Sleaze gets away. Slimer, feeling very guilty about having disobeyed Ray, flies off with a net to catch the Sleaze.

He runs into three kids and tells them what's going on. The kids agree to help, and one of them even has a PKE meter. The boy with the PKE meter tracks the Sleaze to the city dump, and Slimer lures him out of a pipe. Then, the kids launch plungers at them, but the Sleaze throws one back and escapes.

Slimer gets an idea to catch the Sleaze, and he and the kids trash up a diner. The Sleaze smells the trash and is drawn to it, then the kids and Slimer act as waitstaff and serve him some disgusting gunk the PKE meter boy made. Then, they wheel out a pot of that gunk, the Sleaze jumps into it, and they put the lid on the pot and sit on it. However, the Sleaze escapes again.

The Sleaze annoys some random citizens, then Slimer disguises himself as a woman to attract the Sleaze. He asks him out, so Slimer leads the Sleaze to the firehouse, which is disguised as a club. The kids disguise themselves as workers at the club and Slimer and the Sleaze dance, then they lure him to the containment unit and knock him up.

The Ghostbusters return, so the kids put the club paraphernalia away.
