Match lit.

Lemony Snicket-If you are interested in stories with happy endings, then you would be better off somewhere else. In this story, not only is there no happy ending, there is no happy beginning and very few happy things in the middle. My name is Lemony Snicket. It is my solemn duty to bring to light the sorry history of the Baudelaire children as it happened so many years ago. But you in the audience have no such obligation, and I would advise all our viewers to turn away immediately and watch something more pleasant instead.

"whos the weirdo" Sirius asks expecting his daughter to be on screen

"if you lison he just said his name" Lucius says annoyed by him

Lemony extinguishes the match and waits for the audience to leave. When they do not, he lights another.

Lemony Snicket-This story will be dreadful, melancholy and calamitous, a word which here means "dreadful and melancholy." That is because not very many happy things happened in the lives of the Baudelaires.

"baudelairs I thought we were watching phoenix's life" harry asks wanting to meet is god-sibling

"maybe she was adopted by the family" Minnie says trying to comfort everyone after being told this wont be a happy story

TROLLY- DAY



Lemony Snicket- Violet, Klaus and Sunny were intelligent children. Charming and resourceful, they had pleasant facial features, but they were extremely unlucky. Most everything that happened to them was rife with misfortune, misery and despair. I'm sorry to tell you this... but that's how the story goes.

Violet Baudelaire- briny beach please.

Lemony Snicket- The Baudelaire family lived in an enormous mansion at the heart of a dirty and busy city, and one day the parents rather unexpectedly asked their children to take a rickety trolley alone to the seashore.

Klaus Baudelaire- I wonder why Mother and Father didn't want to come with us.

Violet Baudelaire- Maybe they don't like this rickety trolley

Lemony Snicket- "Rickety" is a word here which means "unsteady" or "likely to collapse at any moment."

EXT. BRINY BEACH



trollyman - Hey, kids! Aren't you going to the Festive Fun Fair, with all the jolly rides and games and snacks? "Festive" means "fun!"

Klaus Baudelaire - We know what "festive" means
