"If the world ever feels confusing, as if people are having secret meetings to plot against you behind your back, it's useful to know they are."

"Like most things from the past, it's best seen... in black and white." "We have a good deal, you and I." "You provide a steady stream of employees for me to practice my craft, and I send them back after I've fixed how they see."

"Found it." "You said you had some business to discuss." "Actually, my receptionist has a story to share." "It's okay, Shirley." "My name is Shirley." "I'm a poor receptionist who lives all alone and wants very much to raise children of her own." "Alas, the helter-skelter life of a working girl has left me no time to find a partner, and the cruel reality of adoption economics has left me unable to purchase even the runtiest of orphans." "And so I wait and work..." "and grow old dreaming of children." "Three of them to be precise." "A bucktoothed baby, a smarty-pants little boy and a girl with an enormous fortune." "Uh, uh... bank account." "Uh, uh... heart." "Thank you." " (SOBS SOFTLY)" " SIR:" "It's a moving story." "And frankly, it's a coincident that defies belief."

"Absolutely not." "(VOICE DEEPENS) Beg your pardon?" "They're an economic bonanza." "They do the work of an adult for half the gum." "What kind of a businessman would I be to part with them?" "What would make you part with them?" "I suppose if they became costly." "What might make them costly?" "They made a... (SMACKS LIPS) costly mistake." " Like a fatal accident?" " A bit drastic, but..." "Deal!" "Oops!" "Dropped another pen." "Did you hear that?" "All we have to do is get one of those brats to murder someone." "Oh, they'll never do that." "They're total goody two-shoes." "You so underestimate me." "Hmm, I smell an evil plan." "Thank you so much for your time, Sir." "(THUNDER RUMBLING)" "I can't believe it." "It does sound like something from a scary movie." "I believe that part." "I read the Encyclopedia Hypnotica last year." "I can't believe I hurt Phil." "And I almost hurt you, Sunny." "I didn't mean to." "Charles will be back soon." "He wants to help us." "No." "If Dr. Orwell did something to my brain, I have to fix it." "You can't go back there." "It's too dangerous." "I don't care." "I have to know." "What if you get hurt?" "What if I cause another accident and hurt more people?" "You're the one that wanted to stay here." "You wanted to find out what our parents were doing in this town." "And I'm sorry I put us in danger." "I don't know why they blame our parents for the fire, and I don't care anymore." "I just want you to be safe." "Count Olaf is here." " We have to leave." " And we will." "When I get back from Dr. Orwell's." "(SIGHS)" "What's that thing Samuel Beckett said?" ""I can't go on." "I'll go on."" "Let's go on." "Together." "Was it fatal?" "Just a leg?" "(GROANS) Call me when there's a real maiming." "And don't take your eyes off those orphans!" " (GROANS)" " Well, this one's too easy." "There's just no challenge when they love taking orders." "Those are covered in eye junk." "Order me a new box of gloves." "Do I look like your receptionist?" "Yes, now act like one." "You wouldn't have the Baudelaires at all if it weren't for me." "I don't have them." "You were supposed to hypnotize the bookworm into causing a fatal accident." "Don't blame me for that." "I'm running a business while you're running around wearing my clothes."

"Yes, it's part of my character." "ORWELL:" "I'm so sorry to keep you waiting." "Partner trouble." "But you'd know all about that, Charles." "(ROBOTICALLY) Yes, sir." "She has Charles." "Now, Charles, would you like to look at the screen and tell me what you see?" " Orphans." " Dangerous orphans." "Charles, don't you think your partner and you would be a lot happier without these orphans around?" "We could finally be happy without those orphans around." "She's hypnotizing him." "You will awaken from your trance when I say the word..." "SHIRLEY:" "Charles... would you like to do your impersonation of a chicken?" " (CLUCKING)" " I told you to wait in the waiting room." " SHIRLEY:" "Did you?" "I must've forgot." " ORWELL:" "Mmm." " (SQUAWKS)" " Charles, would you like to stop?" " That's Shirley?" " We should go before she sees us." "Wait." "I really wanna practice saying the secret words." "Why?" "So you could take over and you wouldn't need me anymore?" " (GASPS) Someone has trust issues." " Of course I do." "I dated you!" " Secret words?" " (SHIRLEY AND ORWELL BICKER)" "According to the Encyclopedia Hypnotica, a hypnotist chooses one word to induce hypnotic suggestion, like "Nero" or... or "omelet,"" "and another one to break it." "Charles, would you tell Dr. Orwell to please stop bringing up the past?" "Stop bringing up the past." "Charles, would you tell Count Olaf to stop talking in that voice?" "Stop talking in that voice." " (AS OLAF) You drank all of my wine." " You poisoned my coffee." " You tried to hypnotize me!" " It was the only way to shut you up!" " (FLOORBOARD CREAKS)" " What was that?" "There's nothing up there." "If there's nothing up there, then what was that noise?" "(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)" "(FOOTSTEPS RECEDING)" " (GASPS) - (SCREAMING)" "Sorry about that." "We all have skeletons in our closet, metaphorically, meaning things from our past we'd prefer not leave lying around because they are painful or incriminating or would create unnecessary clutter." "In my closet, I keep a 200-page book written by the woman I loved, explaining at great length and in specific detail the reason she could not marry me, which, if I were to leave out in the open, I would find myself reading over and over." "It would be as if my darling Beatrice were bringing me bad news every day and every night of my life." "Unless you are a murderer or a taxidermist, it is rare to have actual skeletons in your closet, as opposed to metaphorical ones." "But as Klaus had just discovered..." "Dr. Orwell's closet... had both." "(GASPING) Nothing to be frightened of." "I'm sure many doctors have skeletons to study anatomy." "I suppose they could keep them in closets." "But Dr. Orwell's an eye doctor." "Skeletons don't even have eyes." "Look." " What are those?" " Records." "Not that type of record, Sunny." "Medical records." "For employee eye exams." "I don't think Charles and I were the only victims of Dr. Orwell's hypnosis." "I think it's the entire mill." "That's why they never leave and why they're happy to work for coupons and gum." "It's probably why they think our parents started that fire." "We need to figure out the word that breaks the trance." " We can use the library." " We might not need the library." "Are you sure you're not still hypnotized?" "(SIGHS) After Phil's accident, do you remember the word that brought me back to normal?" "VIOLET:" "I can't remember." "We don't have to go back." "We can run away." " What if Count Olaf finds us again?" " We'll protect each other." "How will we protect each other if one of us is under a hypnotic trance?" "And we'd be abandoning those workers." "They're victims of Dr. Orwell, too." "Our parents wanted us to be safe." "We don't know what they wanted." "Not anymore." "We don't know why they were in Paltryville." "We don't know why there were so many things they never told us." "But we do know how we remember them." "And the parents I remember would've wanted us to help." "Then we go back." "Trying to run away, are ya?" "SIR:" "I'm not an idiot." "I've been trying to figure out what to do with you since you caused that accident that crushed a man's debarker dispenser." "That glib attitude will get you nowhere." "Now, you wanna hear the good news or the bad news first?" "The... the bad news." "There's a local receptionist who wants children of her own." "You make one more mistake, and I'm gonna be forced to sack you and send you to live with her." "I've interviewed her about her parenting methods, and..." "I can vouch for her fully." "You can't send us to live with Shirley." "And Klaus isn't responsible for that accident." " He was hypno..." " (COUGHING)" " He was hyp..." " (COUGHING CONTINUES)" "He was hypnotized, just like the rest of the workers here!" "(CLEARS THROAT) I don't care what my employees do for a hobby." "(COUGHS)" "Do you even know what's going at this mill?" "Are you aware of anything outside that horrible cloud of smoke?" ""Don't ask, don't tell." That's my motto." "Now is there anything else?" "What's the good news?" "It will build character." "I was willing to forgive the accident." "You three are an economic bonanza, and I'm a softie at heart." "But my partner convinced me that I need to be a little more inflexible." "Isn't that right, Charles?" "We'll finally be happy without those orphans around." ""It'll build character."" "That's just something people say when they're trying to make others accept a miserable situation." "It is miserable." "If we can't find the word to break your hypnosis, you could cause another accident and we'd be in the hands of Count Olaf." "You mean Shirley." " He looks like Father..." " When he went..." "BOTH:" "To the masquerade ball." "(BOTH CHUCKLE)" "I don't want you to go away again." "(KLAUS SIGHS)" "It seems darker in here without Phil to find the bright side." "It seems darker 'cause it is." "Sir won't let us keep the lights on." "He says we need to cut corners to pay for a new debarker dispenser." "I'm surprised they can show their faces after what they did to Phil." "It's not your fault." "You're right." "It's Count Olaf's." "They're a wretched pair of villains, and they deserve each other." "They deserve to be locked away for a very long time." "But for that to happen, we have to find the word that wakes everyone up." "So what do we do?" "Say a bunch of words out loud and hope one of them works?" "Maybe this can help."

" We can hear you back there." "If you'd gone to my school, you would have flunked eavesdropping." "What kind of school teaches eavesdropping?" "Come on, children." "It's past your bedtime." " We've got a big day tomorrow." " What's tomorrow?" "It's a secret." "You've been fortunate so far, you little twerp." "But not anymore." "Yeah, you tell 'em, boss." "One more accident, and you're mine." "And this will be the worst accident the lumbermill has ever seen."

"CHARLES:" "Help me!" "(SHOUTING)" "Where did the girl go?" "Perhaps you've been told never to shout "fire" in a public place." "When you shout "fire" and there isn't one, it can cause chaos." "Of course, when you shout "fire" and there is one, it can cause chaos but also save lives." "Still, there are times when shouting "fire" can save lives even when there isn't one." "For example, you may be trapped in a motel room... with your enemies waiting outside." "Shouting "fire" will cause the kind of chaos that will allow you to escape undetected." "Therefore, the life it saves will be your own." "(YELLING) Fire!" "Fire!" "(VOICE ECHOING) Fire!" "Fire!" " (OVER PA) Fire!" "Fire!" " Where am I?"

"He may not have been a good partner, or a good boss... or a good person... but someday you'll learn things aren't always black and white." "Ooh, that reminds me." "I thought you should see this." "(GRUNTS) Well, tallyho!" ""Chapter 12." "The Paltryville Fire."" "It's a page from Sir's book." ""The Baudelaires were unequivocally responsible..."" ""for putting out the fire and helping the survivors get back on their feet."" "(BOTH CHUCKLE SOFTLY)" "Look on the bright side." "You're alive!" "(CHUCKLES)" "Officer." "(BOTH CHUCKLE)" "I think you children will have a good home here." "I hope so anyway, because I've just received a promotion." "Vice President of Orphan Affairs." "Which means I'll be too busy to check in on you orphans." "What's our new guardian's name?" "Guardian?" "Oh, no." "Good God, no." "I couldn't find a single one willing to take you in." "Not after what happened to the last three." "Uh, two." "No, four." "Oh, no, children, you're going to boarding school." "It's the end of the season, um, semester, so you're gonna have to work very hard to catch up." "It won't be easy, but I promise you it will build character." "Here's a fun bit of trivia." "The architect who built this school was severely depressed." "I always wanted to go to boarding school." "Rules, traditions..." "Why, I'd give every last suit just to wear a uniform." "(COUGHING)" "(GULPS)" "The office is over there." "You can wait on that bench." "You're not coming with us?" "Oh, this has already taken up much too long already." "Banking hours." "Um..." "I do want you children to know... (COUGHS)" "I hope you find comfort here." "(COUGHS)" "Um, this came to the bank for you." "I assume it's junk mail." "I can't imagine that you know anyone in South America, or why the return address is from my secretary." "Um... (CHUCKLES)" "So long, Baudelaires." "The statue woman said she'd get it back." "Do you think she'll find us again?" "Klaus... we're on our own." "LEMONY:" "In a world both frightening and unlucky, there are a few comforts." "One of them is making new friends." "Friends can make you feel the world is smaller and safer than it really is, because you know people who have similar experiences." "When you meet people like that, you may find your world feels a little more complete." "Like the missing piece of a puzzle... or two halves of a broken spyglass." "Click."
