## Betelgeuse/"Beetlejuice"

* The juice is loose.
* I swear on my dead mother's soul.
* Bob, you and the boys stand guard. Nobody gets through.
* I'm needed upstairs. Bob, hold down the fort.
* I've never seen that chick before in my life or afterlife.
* You know, Bob, long distance relationships can be difficult, especially when one of you is dead and the other is ignoring you for thirty years. But Lydia and I, we have definite psychic connection, and I'll tell you something, she definitely saw me that last time. I felt a little tingle.
* Spill your guts. Who wants to go first? Alright, I will. [opens his shirt and his guts spill out like eels] See? I'm willing to do the work.
* First of all, I want you two kids know, this is a safe space, okay? Feel free to express yourself. Don't be afraid. I sense an enabler here, but we'll get to that.
* Really? Is this a figment of your imagination?
* Really more nightmare material.
* We'd like to thank you all for coming to this very special occasion, but right now, I would like a little privacy.
* My ex-wife is back.
* Guilty as charged.
* What the (bleep)?
* Hey, I'm into some freaky shit myself. But even I have my limitations.
* I believe it was Dostoevsky that said..."Later, fucker!"
* Should've got married in Vegas.
* [Last lines] I just had the weirdest dream.

## Lydia Deetz

* [first lines] Come on in, if you dare. The living. The dead. Can they co-exist? That's what we're here to find out.
* Confronting the unknown, conquering your fears, there's nothing harder.
* When I was a teenager, a trickster demon terrorized our entire family and tried to force me to marry him. I believed he was gone forever until you found this in the attic.
* If you say his name three times, he will appear.
* Don't ever say that name!
* I can't believe I'm doing this. Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!
* I need you to help me save my daughter. But how do I know that you're gonna keep your word?
* I want you out of my life!
* [Ending her ghost talk show] I want to thank you all ghosties out there for all your support over the years, but this is my last show. I've spent so much time talking to the dead, it's time I started living. I want to make memories with people I love, rather than be haunted by them later.

## Astrid Deetz

* When you're all driving carpool and banging your Pilates instructors to fill the empty voids in your lives, we'll see who gets the last laugh.
* My mom grew up here, that old house on the hill.
* Sometimes, I think life is harder.
* Pain and suffering are always inevitable.
* Ghosts aren't real. Only gullible people believe that kind of crap.
* I swear, the Afterlife is so random.

## Delia Deetz

* I'm trying to capture the perfect primal scream. I'm going to blow it up, mount it on the wall, and I invite all of you to do the same.
* Astrid! Stop torturing your mother!

## Rory

* I know this is a big step for you, but in the words of Dr. Glickman, I'm going to give you the push you need.
* You're a figment of my imagination.
* You're that thing from my dream!

## Delores

* Where is Beetlejuice?
* BEETLEJUICE!!!

## Wolf Jackson

* Where's Beetlejuice?!
* I made a hard target search for Beetlejuice.
* [Shows Beetlejuice a picture of Delores] Recognize this puss?
* Lay low, Mr. Juice. She's a soul sucker.
* A live one broke into the Afterlife?

## Dialogue

    Beetlejuice: Never seen that chick before in my life. Or afterlife.
    Rory: [Walks up to Astrid at Charles Deetz's funeral wake] Listen, if you ever need to process any of your emotions, I'm here for you.
    Astrid Deetz: [Puts hand to chest and belches] Emotions processed. Thanks.
    Jeremy: [Leaps down from treehouse after Astrid bumps into it on bicycle, with him chortling] Are you okay? What happened?
    Astrid Deetz: Yeah, I'll live. Uh, what are you reading?
    Jeremy: [Displays book] Crime and Punishment.
    Astrid Deetz: One of those.
    Jeremy: "One of those?" What does that mean?
    Astrid Deetz: Nothing. I've read it three times.
    Jeremy: Did you really?
    Astrid Deetz: Yeah. "Pain and suffering are always inevitable."
    Jeremy: Yes. Yeah, I... I can't believe you are quoting Dostoevsky. That's... where have you been all my life? [They both chuckle]
