6/1/2023 0 Comments The penultimate peril![]() ![]() The Baudelaire murderers still strong accomplices as ever, covering their backs and trying desperately to clear their names of all false charges. Also HATED Stiletto Shoes, a totally qualified nurse that enjoys stabbing things with her fancy shoes, unlike the unfashionable Esme of the sixth, or the lawful Luciana of the seventh (This can’t be happening to me!!). Dupin of the seventh (This IS getting ridiculous). Totally HATED Mattathias, a ruthless HR manager that *replaced* poor Babs, unlike the despicable Count Olaf of the first book, or the terrifying Stephano of the second, or the mischievous Captain Sham of the third, or the feminine Shirley of the fourth, or the cakesniffer Genghis of the fifth, or the businesslike Gunther of the sixth, or the uncool Det. The secret keeps unraveling! VFD doesn’t mean Very Fancy Doilies, and it actually doesn’t mean Village of Fowl Devotees either, what it really means is Volunteers Fighting Disease! Unbelievable! LIKED Hal a bit, although there isn’t really much to like since he barely has any spotlight. A brief respite of boringness takes place until Mattathias, a human resources director, appears on the Hospital and, you guessed it, calamity strikes again. ![]() ![]() ![]() The orphans then start working in the Library of Records, and they befriend Hal, a nearly blind archivist what loves plums. After leaving VFD village and the Quagmires and Hector behind, on the run from the police, the self-sustaining Baudelaire travel to Heimlich Hospital where they meet Babs, an omnipresent voice intercom system that likes to shush people. ![]()
