Setting: Belo’s deli, (front or back counter).

Panel 1
LEWIS (TV): Real life Ghostbusters say ‘bustin’ gets them out of the house and makes them feel good.
BELLO: That’s it Avery! We’re gonna be real life ghostbusters.

Panel 2
AVERY: Not again Bello… A broken shop vac, does not a ghost trap make.
BELLO: I was this close to trapping that thing! You saw the video.

Panel 3
AVERY: That was so fake! It looked like you hung a cotton ball in front of your 2001 flip phone camera.
BELLO: That’s why we should do it. Over two decades of ghost shows and not one bit of real evidence.

Panel 4
AVERY: Wait, what?! So you admit ghosts are not real, but you still want to hunt them?
BELLO: Belief is optional, but merch sales are very real Avery… Come on, let’s do this!
