A Series Of Unfortunate Events

Uncle Monty

Lemmony Snicket: Now may be a good time to pick up theirs book again as you may find joy, and pleasure in it finally-not really. But, Blaze may have hope for him after all.

Blaze's POV
The next morning, the door bell rings.
Count Olaf goes to open it. It's Mr. Easton.

Olaf: "What do you want!?"

Mr. Easton: "Blaze is not what I want, he's who I want. Come along Blaze."

Me: "Where are we going?"

Olaf: "Yes, where? Where are you going?"

Mr. Easton: "Sorry, I'm not allowed to disclose that sort of information to you Mr. Olaf."

Olaf rolls his eyes.

Olaf: "I told you, it's just Count Olaf. Count! Count Olaf. Calling me Mr. Is not only insulting, it's out of text!"

Mr. Easton: "Goodbye Count, Olaf."

Olaf nods with a smile in an unwilling sort of way. He's giving me dirty looks.

I get in the car, and we drive away.

A couple minutes later, we arrived at a new house.

Mr. Easton: "Blaze, I believe you now a Dr. Mount Gomery."

Blaze: "No, I don't."

Mr. Easton: "Yes, yes, of course you do. He's your uncle I believe."

Blaze: "I don't know of an Uncle Monty."

Mr. Easton: "Surly you shall remember soon enough. Come along."

Enter Uncle Monty
Monty:"Why hello there! You must be Blaze. I've missed seeing you."

Blaze: "Missed?"

Monty: "I don't suppose you remember, you were just a baby at the time. It's so good to see you! Come in, come in."

Mr. Easton: "Well, I should be going."

Monty: "Oh, can't you stay? You can help us dissect the Fiskit Boa!"

Mr. Easton: "No, I'm not really an animal person."

Blaze: "Reptiles and amphibians."

Monty: "Ooh, I can see well get along just fine. Good job correcting him here Blaze."

Blaze: "Thanks.

Monty: "Goodbye."

Exit Mr. Easton.

Monty: "Shall I help you unpack?"

Blaze: "I don't really have anything of personal belonging."

Monty: "Are you sure about that, Blaze?"

Blaze: "Well, except this spyglass. I believe it was my father's."

Lemmony Snicket: Perhaps this moment in this story is one of those 'ah, ha moments' when something finally makes sense. For example, you may be reading this book and say 'ah ha! Count Olaf is an evil, and sinister man who's out too get Blaze. Or, you could simply be doing a difficult algebra problem when all of a sudden it clicks. These moments are better known as 'eureka moments'.🏴
