- the second book of A Series of Unfortunate Events -
After the fortune-hunting evil guardian, Count Olaf, Uncle Monty was a rather desirable guardian even though he loved snakes. At least he fed the children well and took them to the cinema and other exciting places.
But things could not remain well as Count Olaf turned up like a bad penny. I wonder why the orphans did not kick up a fuss and had Stefano (Count Olaf) fired! They were just too well brought up and were no match for the crooked Count Olaf. It is one thing being polite, it is quite another at being able to insist on something as important as their own future. But of course if they were brats, there would be no more unfortunate events: as then Count Olaf would have been gotten rid of, there would be no one else to make any more trouble.
