How do the kids in The Bad Beginning escape from Count Olaf?
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.

the end of the first book is that when Violet was in the play, she knew that marrying Olaf was a bad idea because Olaf would steal their fortune. In the middle of the play Violet figured out how to solve the problem of the first book. Violet wrote with her left hand when she was a right handed on a document of a marriage what Olaf didn't is that in the Nuptial law it clearly states that you have to use your own hand but at the end one of Olaf's associates turns down all the lights and Olaf escapes and would cook up something evil in the next book.

what's the resolution in the bad beginning by lemony snicket?
First of all the problem is the three Baudilaire children, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny lose there parents in a fire while they are at the beach and they are sent to live with the terrible Count Olaf who treats them very poorly by giving them one bed, making the children cook dinner for him and his theater troupe. He captures the youngest of all the Baudilaire children, Sunny, and dangles her out the window in a bird cage, and last but not least trys to get Violet to marry him so he can inherit the Baudilaire fortune after he kills her and the other two Baudilaire children. In the Lemony Snicket books there is no happy beginning, no happy ending and very little happy things in the middle as Lemony Snicket himself would say. Violet learns from a book that she will not officially be married to Count Olaf if she does not sign the document in her own hand. She signs it with her left hand unstead of her right and therefore is not married to Count Olaf. He announces it to the crowd that he is married to Violet which is not true but he does not know this and Mr. Poe goes up on stage and says this cannot be true and so does Justice Strauss but then she looks over it and sees that it must be true. Then Violet speaks up and says that she did not sign with her right hand which she writes with except in times of emerjency which we know is this time right now. Anyways once Jaustice Strauss says that Violet is not married she says that Count Olaf is under arrest. The light man turns out the light and Count Olaf and his troupe make their gat away.
How old was Count Olaf when he died?
His exact age is unknown. Wikipedia states he is in his mid-forties.
