* Hearing a sudden noise, Sunny turns her head to see a mysterious figure in the distance. Violet recognizes the shadowy creature as Mr. Poe, from the bank, but she is confused at why she is at the beach. Mr. Poe approaches them and looks at them sadly. After a long silence, the Baudelaire children try to make conversation. Mr. Poe then tells them their parents have perished in a terrible fire. The children don't say anything at all, and he takes the children to his car.
* Visiting the Baudelaire Mansion, ravished by the fire, the Baudelaires find it's nearly all gone. While Klaus is looking at the ashy remains of the house, he finds a spyglass in a cabinet drawer. When he pulls it out, part of it falls apart in his hand. As Mr. Poe explains about the Baudelaire Fortune and their future guardianship, Klaus finds that the eye-shaped end of the spyglass opens. Mr. Poe beckons for them to leave, and the Baudelaire orphans wistfully follow. He explains in the car that until he finds the children a new guardian, they'll stay with his family.
* The Baudelaires have dinner at Mr. Poe's house, where everything is boiled, with his wife, Eleanora Poe, and two children, Edgar and Albert. Eleanora presents the latest issue of *The Daily Punctilio*, whose front page headline is on the Baudelaire Fire. Mr. Poe tells his wife that maybe they shouldn't discuss the fire in front of the Baudelaires, but then changes his mind when he realizes that he is mentioned in the paper as well.

* Mr. Poe takes the children to their "closest living relative" and their new guardian: Count Olaf, who is employed as an actor. Upon arriving at his address, they encounter Justice Strauss, a kind-hearted and child-loving judge, who has a garden full of flowers and a private library full of books. But sadly the children discover that Justice Strauss is not in any way connected to Count Olaf, whose home looms ominously across the street.
* Mr. Poe rings the doorbell, and as they wait, mentions that Count Olaf said specifically that he was "very eager to get his hands on you". Olaf runs down the stairs to let them in, and immediately the children notice the tattoo of an eye on their new guardian's ankle. They enter Count Olaf's house and see dirt and grime in every inch and corner. Count Olaf says he could fix it up with some of the children's wealth, but Mr. Poe corrects him: the Baudelaire Fortune will not be inherited until Violet comes of age. Olaf soon pushes Mr. Poe out of the house.
* Olaf presents the orphans with a list of chores, and gives them a tour of their horrid new "home". They are only allowed to use bathroom #9, and they are forced to sleep on one bed. Their bedroom also has a pile of rocks on the side for the children. After Count Olaf asks how the children feel about their new home, Klaus begins to argue. Violet quickly end the disagreement and notes that first impressions are often very wrong. Count Olaf agrees, and then says he is worse than they think.

#### 9th

* While Olaf has them cleaning the bathroom with toothbrushes, Justice Strauss rings on doorbell, and talks to Count Olaf. She's made the Baudelaires cooked lamb with her homemade mint jelly, but Olaf convinces her that they're violent and ungrateful spoiled monsters. He chomps on the lamb himself in front of the children, and dismisses Justice Strauss, saying the children don't want to see her, as the lamb was too salty.
* Meeting the orphans upstairs, he finds they completed his list and adds that they have to prepare dinner for his theater troupe, who are coming tonight. Violet has the idea to check Justice Strauss' library for cookbooks.
* They decide on pasta puttanesca and go with Justice Strauss to pick up the ingredients they need. When they arrive back to Olaf's house, he and his troupe put on a musical performance in front of the children called "The Count". Olaf gets annoyed with the children when they don't clap, and he tells them to cook dinner.
* As the troupe drinks in the dining room, the Baudelaire children prepare dinner in the kitchen. They prepare the sauce, Violet fixes the pasta maker to make fresh pasta, and Sunny shreds the parsley with her teeth.
* As Count Olaf gives a speech to his troupe about acting, the children serve dinner, which everyone but Olaf agrees is delicious. When Olaf finds out what they are serving, he demands to know why they were not given roast beef. Klaus points out that Count Olaf never asked for roast beef, and when Sunny makes a noise, Olaf holds Sunny high up in the air, but then puts her down on the table as he is too drunk to stand still. He tells the children to go to their "beds" and slaps Klaus across the face when Klaus says they only have one bed, and that they don't have the money to buy a new one.
* As they lay in bed that night, the Baudelaires consider that this hostile environment may not, after all, may not be "better than nothing", as their father had once said.

* Count Olaf spies on the children, and sees that they are reading "Nuptial Law" and decides that he must find a way to put a stop them. He visits Justice Strauss and flatters her by casting her as the judge in the play. Klaus sneaks a book back with him to do a little research.
* At night, Klaus solves the case. He learns that Violet cannot get married without the permission of her legal guardian since she is underage. Unfortunately, her guardian is none other than Count Olaf. Once she signs the marriage document in her own hand, their union is completely valid and Olaf will succeeded in getting the Baudelaire Fortune.

#### 11th

They arrive at an ornate mansion and are greeted by the doctor with pieces of coconut cream cake.

* As Montgomery Montgomery gives the children a tour of their new home, they come across a picture of a piano with no one in it. It's the doctor's only proof that he knew their parents, explaining that the three of them were hiding in the piano and had unfortunately gotten locked in.
* Monty shows the children his reptile room, which is filled with various types of reptiles. He introduces them to the Incredibly Deadly Viper who turns out to be not as deadly as it appears. It takes an instant liking to Sunny as it playfully curls around her. Monty encourages them to make themselves at home and to read as many of the books as they like.

#### 21st

* Monty's new assistant, Stephano, arrived at the front door. Stephano is really only a poorly disguised Olaf. The children lock themselves in the Reptile Room and wait there until Monty comes home from the running errands.

* They decide to go to the movies and watch a horribly named film called "Zombies in the Snow." Unknown to Stephano, there is a hidden message in the subtitles that instructs Monty to take the children to Peru on the SS Prospero. However, Stephano then notices when he sees Monty use a spyglass at parts in the movie. He gets up and blocks Monty's way, and in result, Monty is forced to go up to the movie box to rewind the movie, and get the message.

#### 22nd

* The Baudelaires wake up to find that Monty has been killed and left in the Reptile Room for them to find. They immediately suspect Stephano. Before they can do anything about it, Stephano kidnaps Sunny and promises to hurt her if Violet and Klaus don't go with him to Peru.
* Unexpectedly, Mr. Poe appears but doesn't recognize Stephano for who he really is. Stephano explains that Monty was killed the the Incredibly Deadly Viper and that he must become their new guardian. Mr. Poe refuses to listen to Klaus when he says that Stephano is lying so the Baudelaires take matters into their own hands.
* Klaus sneaks into the Reptile Room in search of one of Monty's journal, convinced that there must be notes about the viper in it. Meanwhile, Violet and Sunny go to Monty's care and break into Stephano's suitcase. There they find a bunch of parts that, when assembled, become the murder weapon. While Violet is distracted, Sunny manages to wander off and heads back to the house with the Incredibly Deadly Viper.
* The two give Mr. Poe a scare but, when he realizes that they are just playing, he comes to the conclusion that the viper couldn't have killed Monty. This is further cemented when Klaus reads Monty's notes clearly stating that the viper isn't an aggressive reptile and when Violet puts the murder weapon back together. Stephano is revealed to be Olaf but, just when Poe was about to arrest him, Olaf manages to get away to the nearby maze.
* Chase of Count Olaf: The Baudelaires follow Olaf into the garden maze, but run into Jacquelyn instead. Disguised as a statue, she reveals that she was a friend of their parents and promises to do everything she can to find Count Olaf.

It's a peculiar home as they learn that the once "fierce and formidable" Josephine is now afraid of everything. She is also a stickler for grammar and corrects the children whenever they aren't grammatically correct. She explains that she and her deceased husband Ike were once friends with their parents and that they used to create secret codes when they would picnic together.
* Because of the approaching hurricane, Josephine leaves the children to go to the market and get supplies. Violet, Sunny, and Klaus use this time to do a little snooping. They manage to get Josephine's safe open and find pictures of the once "fierce" woman. Beneath the pictures, there is a book titled, “The Incomplete History of Secret Organizations.”
* Before they can read it Josephine returns and the children scramble to put everything back in its place. She has come with an uninvited guest: Captain Sham aka Count Olaf. Unlike Monty, Josephine doesn't see through his disguise and the two go out to spend a romantic evening together.
* During their evening, "Sham" reveals himself as Olaf to Josephine, and forces her to write her own suicide note. Josephine leaves clues in the letter, and "jumps" out a window, climbing down the cliff to escape.
* The children are left to think of their own escape plan but are interrupted when they hear a sound coming from downstairs. They rush down and find that Aunt Josephine has "jumped" to her death. Klaus finds a suicide note that once again named Count Olaf as their guardian.
* Meanwhile, the Quagmires steal a plane and escape after receiving a coded message.

#### 26th

* Mr. Poe arrives and listens as the Baudelaires accuse Count Olaf of killing their Aunt. They show him the supposedly forged note. He compares it to one of Josephine's grocery lists, and the children are surprised when the handwriting matches. Mr. Poe right away dismisses the idea that this was all set up by Count Olaf. Violet and Klaus are frustrated but have no proof to support their claims.
* The group go to brunch with Mr. Poe and surprisingly Captain Sham. The waiter at the restaurant tries to help the children and gives them some peppermints. The children eat the candy and break out in hives as they are allergic to peppermint. This gives them the excuse to return to Aunt Josephine's house and more time for them to study the note.
* Klaus realizes that there is a hidden message in it and they learn that she is still alive but hiding in Curdled Cave. Suddenly the house is blown off the cliff and Klaus nearly plummets to his death. Luckily, they manage to escape with a picture of their parents as an unfortunate keepsake.
* The Baudelaire children "borrow" a sailboat and set sail to find their Aunt. Once they do, they have a hard time trying to convince her to come back with them. Josephine tells them that she's scared, particularly because her husband was killed by leeches from the lake. She only leaves after Klaus points out that the cave is for sale. On their journey back, their boat is attacked by leeches. Violet and Klaus come up with the idea to light Josephine's scarf on fire and use it as a signal. The Quagmire parents see the fire, and consider dropping in to help.
