Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire were sitting on Brimy Beach on a very cloudy day. You can already tell that our little friends are quite stupid, because who one earth who go to a beach on a cloudy day? On top of that, the sand is more like dirt and the water is all polluted. Ok so now that we have our "lovely" scenery set, let's just get on with the story.
So they're sitting, sitting, sitting doing absolutely nothing but sitting. Get the picture? Oh but Sunny is biting a piece of wood with her freakishly sharp teeth don't make her mad or she'll bite you and Klaus is reading some boring book on how to draw Mickey Mouse or some crap like that. Violet is inventing a machine that will help skip rocks in the water, but who would want to do that? Obviously she has no life.
Ok so they're sitting there, doing their own stuff when Mr. Poe appears out of nowhere.
"It's like he appeared out of nowhere!" Klaus says as he approaches.
"Hey fatty…bring any food? We're starving over here!" Violet shrieks.
Mr. Poe smiles at them gently; ignoring their comments but thinking in his head how much he wants to kill them.
"So what are you doing here, fatty?" Klaus asks. Mr. Poe stares at him.
"Oh just taking a walk along the beach. The sand is just wonderful and the sky is cloudless. Oh and the water is so clean and un-polluted," Mr. Poe explains, "Oh and by the way your parents are dead and your mansion was burnt down."
"WHAT??!!!" they all screamed in unison. Mr. Poe laughed.
"That's what you get for calling me fat," he retorted.
"So you were just kidding? Our parents aren't really dead?" Violet asked hopefully.
"Oh no, don't worry, they're dead," Mr. Poe reassured them.
"So what the heck are we supposed to do know?" Klaus shouted.
"How am I supposed to know?" Mr. Poe shrugged.
"Oh, well, great. Our parents are dead, our house is burned down, and we have no future!" Klaus yelled.
"Ha-ha, yeah," Mr. Poe laughed, "It sucks to be you."
