Question

" There they meet Captain Shame, who is actually Count Ola senoir in terrible disguise. The children try and warn Aunt Josephine"....

How do they know? TheMadBaron 06:36, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Huh?

If Count Olaf is in disguise, how do the children know it's him?

Count Olaf is very bad at disguising himself, but Aunt Josephine, having never seen Olaf, doesn't recognise him. smurrayinchester^{(User), (Ho Ho Ho!)} 07:39, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

It's a reccuring situation -at least at the first 7 books, excluding the first one- that Count Olaf shows up disguised extremely poorly, and only the children seem to recognise him. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Orthologist (talk • contribs) 17:32, 9 February 2007 (UTC).

Take a look at the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season article and you'll see why Josephine and Ike Anwhistle got their names.

The book was written in 2000 so it's unlikely to be the reason for the choice of names.Nicole A. Jenkins (talk) 11:34, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Plot Summary

Who took away the plot? I think that's vandalism. Can someone fix it for me?I like Snicket's books.--RoryReloaded 07:48, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
