Two of the Baudelaire children, opened the bedroom door to see Luna on the floor with her hands on her face, both children felt sympathy for her. Living with Count Olaf for so long must of being torture for her, Violet needled down in front of the girl and placed her hand on Luna's knee.

The girl looked up with tears in her eyes sniffing "whats wrong?" Violet asked softly.

Luna chuckled "whats not wrong, what could possibly not be wrong in this situation" Luna sobbed, Violet gently grabbed Luna's hand and gently got her up off the floor and brought her into the bedroom.

Violet guided her to the bed as they sat on it, along with the other two Baudelaire children "I'm sorry, I bet you think I'm just like him" Luna said.

Violet shook her head "no, your nothing like him, your sweet and caring" this made Luna smile, she had never heard such kind words that described her, only insults that degraded her self-esteem "yeah, if anything we're wondering how you haven't run away yet" Klaus said, Luna looked towards the boy "I have, many times but, he always finds me, no matter how far I go, he always finds me, so in the end I gave up running away" Luna admitted

All three Baudelaire children looked at the broken girl next to them "well, your not alone now, we all can get through this together" Violet said, Luna looked at the brunette and smiled.

The door barges open and Count Olaf stepped in holding a mop and bucket "Showtime" he said and took all 4 children to the bathroom and give them tooth brushes "remember, if you work extra hard, you get to go to the ball......room, which is even grimier. Hang on to your tooth brushes, you'll need them for your teeth" the door bell went and Luna saw Klaus try to get up and answer it "stay here. And not a peep, he then closed the door.

Luna sighed and began using the tooth brush to clean the bath tub, as the other children started to clean to, it was a little hard for the Baudelaires but Luna was use to it.

After they finished Olaf's list the children made their way back to the bedroom and sat on the bed again "I never wanna use a tooth brush again" Klaus said and Luna just sighed "it just gets worse from here" the opened again and Olaf came in, making the children get off the bed "why aren't you cleaning? My list was very specific" he walked closer to the children making Luna slightly hide behind the three children, mainly Violet.

"We finished it" Violet told Olaf who scoffed and took the list from Klaus looking through it "no, you didn't" Count Olaf took out a pen and began writing down something else "we even washed your underwear" Klaus informed Olaf as he finished writing

"You missed one, you still have to prepare a large meal for myself and my theater troop" Olaf then threw the list back at Klaus "we don't know how to prepare a large dinner" Violet informed Olaf.

He just started at her like she was stupid "plan the menu, purchase the ingredients, prepare the food, set the table, serve dinner and clean up afterwards and stay out of our way, anyway the child knows how to cook, just shows being rich makes you stupid" Olaf said.

Luna hated her father for insulting the Baudelaires, she thought they were smarter then him in everyway "how can we purchase anything? We don't have any money" Klaus said and Olaf reached into his pocket and thew a bag of coins at Violet "do you know what that is?" Olaf asked

"Something greasy" Violet said making Luna smile a little "money hard earned money, the most important substance on earth besides applause and lip balm. Since the bossy banker won't let us use any of your parents' enormous fortune, I am forced to cough up my own earnings from theatrical performances and the occasional bit of consulting work. Now get a move on the troop will be here at 07:00 and in the mean time, I will be up in. Can you guess?"
