"Lemony Snicket, you just don't understand. We can end this schism once and for all."
"At what cost?"
"We can end all of this, Snicket!"
"The ends does not justify the means. The deaths would be unacceptable."
MAY 9:
"Hey, Violet!" Moira Tucker announced into the webcam.
"Hello, Moira." Violet Baudelaire responded.
"How's it going?" Moira asked.
"I think I might be pregnant, Moira." Violet answered.
"How sweet!" Moira exclaimed.
"Can't believe I'm going to be a mother." Violet mumbled.
"How's Quigley?" Moira asked.
"VFD business. Something about a guy called the 'Invisible Man'. Apparently, he's trying to end the schism." Violet answered.
"How?" Moira innocently asked.
"I don't know. Lemony Snicket told us that it apparently involves a pretty big body count." Violet answered.
"Oh." Moira said.
Just then, the webcam connection shorted out.
MAY 10:
Quigley Quagmire was hot on the trail of the "Invisible Man". Apparently, an international arms dealer named Clint "Spider" Fox had been selling large numbers of guns and ammunitions to a mysterious stranger. Fox's current place of business was the Lucky 36 Hotel.
In the Presidential Suite of the Lucky 36, several crates filled the rooms. A wealthy customer was arriving shortly. Clint Fox was wanting to make a good impression.
"Colt 1602 assault rifle, customized. Fires 5.56 mm rounds. Equipped with infrared scope and silencer. Clip holds 50 rounds." Clint Fox told the buyer.
"I'll take 12. Also, I want a few SMGS, 10 mm. Shotguns, pistols, hand grenades. And while you're at it, I want some heavy and experimental weapons." The buyer announced.
"Do I look like an R&D lab?" Fox asked.
"You do have some bigger guns?" The buyer asked.
"Vulcan minigun. RPG launcher. Zeus T2 rocket launcher. 40 mm grenade launcher. And one experimental laser rifle." Fox answered.
"Deal." The buyer replied.
"Do you have $300,000?" Fox asked.
"Here's the money." The buyer answered.
