'Yes, have some'

There's this scene in Ghostbusters where Louis Tully, played by Rick Moranis, tells a horse to "wait for the sign." He's possessed at this point. His eyes blaze red, and he runs off into the night, knocking over a woman's grocery bags along the way. The coachman remarks, "What an asshole."

Louis isn't exactly the nicest person before he gets possessed. Mostly he's just socially awkward. But still, he is kind of an asshole. A small asshole -- small in stature and spirit -- with bad posture and an inability to relate to people.

I can't remember how Louis factors into the sequel, but IMDb.com tells me he's in it. I'd like to think he has an epiphany of some sort after the Ghostbusters cross the streams and show that prehistoric bitch how they do things downtown. Maybe he learns to be braver and kinder -- and not be such a little asshole.
