A Series of Unfortunate Events
editA Series of Unfortunate Events is a series of children's novels which follows the turbulent lives of Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire after their parents' death in an arsonous house fire. The children are placed in the custody of their distant cousin Count Olaf, who begins to abuse them and openly plots to embezzle their inheritance. After the Baudelaires are removed from his care by their parents' estate executor, Arthur Poe, Olaf begins to doggedly hunt the children down, bringing about the murder of a multitude of characters.
The entire series is actively narrated by Snicket, who makes numerous references to his mysterious, deceased love interest, Beatrice.

Olaf plans to take the children to Peru, but the children's banker, Arthur Poe, arrives and learns of Monty's death.

The series describes a scene at the fourth-to-last dinner party held by Bertrand and Beatrice Baudelaire before their deaths. Each part includes a clue which together spell out: Olaf was there.
Snicket describes a dinner party in which "at least two guests were disguised as desserts".[4] As Bertrand Baudelaire is about to cut into these desserts and several guests are passing around "the sugar bowl",[4] Sunny Baudelaire sees a man with an "exceptionally large and sharp" nose looking through the window[4] and shrieks, "Funcoot!", which Snicket glosses as, "I believe I may have seen someone lurking outside"[4] ("Al Funcoot" is an anagrammatic pseudonym of Count Olaf). Klaus, having just read Taking the Teeth Out of Teething, believes that Sunny is teething, prompting Violet to create a device using "a silver pie server and the ear of the snowman ice sculpture" (likely one and the same as "the guest disguised as the ice sculpture [who] wore a bowtie")[4] to soothe Sunny's teeth.[4] The figure in the window disappears, and Sunny calms down.[4] Snicket concludes that the occasion was a "fateful event".[4]
