The suspicious matter about this is that he claim they ’re " work with a professional person here ! , " though it ’s far from professional when he subsequently kick back over a nearby tree .
This – and his uproariously tempestuous bombast that included some swearing – is a sign that Beetlejuice was n’t stable and could n’t be trusted under any consideration but unluckily for Adam , Barbara and the Deetz family , they had n’t figure the last of him .
PLAIN MEAN: Eating The Fly

Beetlejuice is under the memorial park in the Maitlands ' model up in the bean , and all the consultation envision are his hands as he beckon the poor fly towards him , tempting him with food for thought in the form of a Zagnut .
The poor fly shrieking " help me ! " more than once as he ’s pulled into the hole , where it ’s at long last eaten by Beetlejuice . Beetlejuice obviously had the Zagnut , so why not wipe out that instead ?

It ’s not demonstrate what come about to the yoke afterwards but they in all likelihood never enjoy the carnival again , much less match to Charles ' plan to turn the townspeople into a tourist trap .
PLAIN MEAN: Scaring Barbara & Adam
Granted , Adam asked Beetlejuice if he was capable of being shuddery to which he obliged . But Beetlejuice took things too far , making the husband and wife scream their heads off upon pulling a cruddy magic .
The audience does n’t see his boldness like Adam and Barbara do , but it ’s gentle to imagine how horrible it is give way their reactions . Beetlejuice could have only answered " Yes " and threw in a snide remark or two rather than traumatizing his likely guest . It ’s no wonder Adam and Barbara did n’t need to do business with him !
FUNNY: Flirting With Barbara

He even has the audaciousness to ask Adam if he ’s get a crack with Barbara at all . She ’s already happily married and even if she were n’t , it ’s doubtful Barbara would ’ve fall for Beetlejuice anyway .
He kisses her without permit , he flirts with her , and he even prove to count up her dress . Beetlejuice has no boundaries , but this is part of his lineament ’s overall comedy and raunchy appeal .

That undertaking is left to Barbara and Adam , who were well suited to talk to Lydia anyway when compared to Bettlejuice , who was a curious ghost at best . Still , this import in time shows how selfish and direful Beetlejuice can really be .

PLAIN MEAN: That Time He Turned Into A Snake
Beetlejuice claims he was just doing his business in getting rid of the Deetz family from Adam and Barbara ’s home , but this was a grave and cruel trick even so .
Not only does he basically scare the living daylights out of the said family and Otho , but he could have earnestly wound them in his monstrous snake form . Especially Charles , whom he dropped from the 2nd floor principal - first . He may need to join the mortal world , but Beetlejuice clearly has no respectfulness for mortal life .
