Best Answer

Count Olaf cast Violet in a play in which he would marry her, but because he also cast a real judge it made the marriage legal. Violet had to go through with this because Olaf had locked Sunny in a cage and was ready to drop her to her death if Violet did not marry her.

However, the children found out that if the bride did not sign the marriage deed with her usual hand (Violet is left-handed) then it would be invalid. So Violet signed the deed with her right hand, Sunn was released and after ensuring that Sunny was okay she proved that Olaf was not her husband.

Olaf and his troupe then disappeared.

What is the Summary of novel series of unfortunate events?

Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire find their home burnt to black and their parents dead. So they have to go to a stranger but a relative called Count Olaf. In their life, he tries to kill the orphans with no succes. Later on in the book, Count Olaf asks the orphans to be in his play called 'The Marvellous Marrige'. Violet says yes, and Klaus finds that the wedding in the play will be real! Count Olaf wants to marry Violet to get to the Baudelaire fortune, but his plans do not work. Now, Violet was right handed, and she signed the certificate with her left. Justice Strauss (neighbour of Count Olaf) had not clue, and she said "If the bride signs with her left hand, the wedding is not official". So once again, Count Olaf's plans were ruined. The orphans wanted to live with Justice Strauss, but Mr Poe (bank manager) said they had to liven with a relative. Count Olaf and his acting group got away in a car, and then Mr Poe takes the children to another relative, just who will that be? I know, it is Uncle Monty! Find out in The Reptile Room


What is the main idea of series of unfortunate events?

The first book in A Series of Unfortunate Events focuses on the three Baudlaire orphans, whose parents are believed to be dead after their mansion was burned down. They are sent to live with their distant relative, Count Olaf. Count Olaf treats them horribly. He actually attempts to marry the eldest orphan to obtain their vast fortune. However, minutes before his plan was completed the very intelligent orphans find a way to expose his plan to the public, saving the children, but allowing Olaf to escape. As for underlying themes in the book, greed is a huge factor in Count Olaf's character. His greed leads him into harrassing and torturing people just so he can get rich. Besides greed, altruism also has a role in the story. The orphans meet a lady who is very generous. She sympathizes with them and wants them to be happy. Then there is also to orphans themselves who symbolize goodness and intelligence. Overall, I would say that Snicket is trying to tell us that if we use our creativity and kindness, no matter what kind of horrible situations we are put in, we can find the good in everything.

This could be a Series of Unfortunate Events. The only movie made was based on the first three books by Lemony Snicket. The Bauldelaire children: Violet, Klaus and Sunny were at the beach when their house burned down killing their parents. They were first sent to live with a distant cousin, Count Olaf who just wanted them for their vast fourtune. They were then sent to live with Uncle Montgomery who was killed by Olaf. Then they were sent to live with Aunt Jospeheine who was threatened into committing suicide by Olaf. The children rescue her after discovering she faked her death but on their return Olaf kills her.
