My dear son, I just returned from the future. Future generations have all but forgotten you ... but they dare to paint me as the villain!

It's funny as an adult when I re-watch the Ghostbusters movie and I am somewhat sympathetic to Peck. Yes, he does eventually draw absurd conclusions about the Ghostbusters and shuts down the Containment Unit letting out all the ghosts, but his original reason for showing up was valid.
The EPA had every right to ask the Ghostbusters what they are doing and assess any environmental concerns they may have. It was Peter who unnecessarily told him off and as a result brought the wrath of the EPA down upon them. In this episode, however, he is just a complete loser who tries to frame the Ghostbusters and murder Slimer. As they said in the film this man has no dick.
