"If you like stories with happy endings then you will 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 Christopher Andrew. It is my solem duty to bring light to the sorry history of the Andrew children as it happened many years ago. But you in the audience have no such obligation, and I would advise all of our readers to turn away immediately and watch something more pleasant instead. 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 Andrew children."
