You may think that the Baudelaires ought to prevail, and be tucked some place, all safe and sound; Count Olaf captured and rotting in jail, his henchpeople nowhere around.

But there’s no happy endings; not here and not now. This tale is all sorrows and woes. You dream that justice and peace win the day, but that’s not how the story goes.

You might think that two parents, both brave and both true, would live till a nice ripe old age. But I’m sad to say I have bad news for you: The curtain rings down on the stage.

Yes, there’s no happy endings; not here and not now. This tale is all sorrows and woes. You dream that justice and peace win the day, but that’s not how the story goes.

That’s just how the story…
