You know after watching it again as an adult and as big of a prick as Walter Peck was, he was kinda right. He's an EPA agent doing his job, trying to get a peak at this clearly dangerous weird machine these guys have in the middle of Manhattan. Right off the bat when he introduces himself, Venkman intentionally slimes his hand and his suit jacket and acted like an arrogant prick. Wouldn't let him see the containment unit without "saying please" and then when he says please Venkman still refuses. Peck then says well I guess I'll have to come back with a court order and Venkman explodes and yells at him, threatening to sue his ass if he does. The only reason we were on his side is because it's Bill Murray and we like that he's an arrogant prick. Plus the actor playing Peck was good at being smarmy and unlikeable.
