* In "Mr. Beetlejuice Goes to Town," BJ's become a corrupt mayor and his friends are trying to get him out of office. To lure him to a bugged room, Lydia dresses up in an alluring costume, with a veil over her face, and uses a deep, sultry voice. BJ is practically drooling when he sees her, and when she pulls him close to speak quietly in his ear, the whole scene is bizarrely seductive - especially considering how young she is.
