Big Bad Beetleborgs Plot Holes


In Season 1 Episode 1, Jo, Roland, and Drew enter a haunted house off a dare from a couple of rich snobs. In the house, they come across various ghouls such as a skeleton and a Frankstein knock off. They also encounter Flabber, a phantasm who was released from some sort of exile inside of a pipe organ when the kids bumped it while trying to find their way out of the house.

What doesn't make sense: the kids can't seem to make up their mind whether they are afraid of these ghouls or if they are annoyed by them. One minute they are screaming and running from the ghouls, and the next minute they are like "Ugh, I'm tired of this". Also, why did Roland faint upon seeing Flabber the phantasm, but didn't faint when seeing the skeleton or the Frankenstein knock off? At the point that the kids found Flabber, they were actually lost and couldn't find their way out of the house. When Flabber gave them a wish, why didn't they wish their way out of the house? Another thing is it was never explained how or why Flabber got trapped in the pipe organ to begin with.

Humorous note: Did anyone else notice that Flabber looks like a cross between Jay Leno and the joker from Batman, but acts like a poor man's version of the Genie from Disney's Aladdin?
