A man named Count Olaf who is their relative (he is a third cousin removed 4 times, or a fourth cousin removed 3 times), has adopted the the the Baudelaire orphans. Mr. Poe takes them to Count Olaf’s house, but if they have any questions to talk to him. Count Olaf is an evil man and only wants the Baudelaire fortune. Count Olaf has a tower that the children are banned from. Everyday Count Olaf is gone in the mornings, and leaves a list of chores for them to do. Count Olaf acts in his acting troupe, and one night he tells the children that his troupe is coming over for dinner, and makes them make dinner for 10 guests.
