L.S. On this day, January 26, we hold are first meeting since November last. Is everyone present?... Good. For a verification that no unwanted people are here, as we always do, each of you must come and whisper to my ear the password of the V.F.D. meetings. D.H. you may step forward.

D.H. Yes, sir.

L.S. Correct password! Thank you, D.H.... Next!

V.B. Me, sir

L.S. Ah, yes, V.B. How was your vacation?

V.B. Great, sir. My husband joined me and we were able to discover where Count Olaf has gone into hiding at the moment and the current address of the living parent of the Baudelaires!

L.S. Excellent! I always knew you were our best member. You can inform us later. Now, the password please...

C.O. (whispering) Hey, D.H. what is the password...um... I seem to have forgotten. You know how I forget all the time. Just don't tell L.S. I asked you, please.

D.H. You know what C.O., this is the last time I'm going to tell you, it's...

L.S. Thank you V.B. Now, C.O. step forward please, and hurry, you are the last one.

C.O. Um...it is...er...well see, sir, I seem to have forgotten again. Can I...

L.S. All right, all right. Take off your hood so I can see you, and get the password from someone else for next time.

Some moments later

L.S. As everyone knows, we have gathered here today because one of our associates has discovered where Count Olaf is hiding, and the address of the living parent of the Baudelaire children. Are there any questions before we begin?

C.O. Sorry to interrupt sir, but is there any lemonade left?

D.H. C.O., I'm sorry if I am about to offend you, but that is really of no importance and is unrelated with what we are about to converse of.

C.O. Oh...right. Sorry.

L.S. V.B., you may begin.

Some coughing the background.

V.B. Well, while I was enjoying my stay in Mamba du Mal, I discovered from an old women that Count Olaf and his troop had passed the village only days earlier. I grew extremely curious and asked everyone if they knew where they were heading. I was told immediately that they said they were heading for Black Rapids, when I thought why would Count Olaf inform someone where he was going. I immediately knew then that this was a trap, and that he going to secret place where only he knew. By my own investigations, I have detected that Count Olaf and his troop are now hiding in the Vineyard of Fragrant Grapes, a place know one would think twice about. I have also recognized that Count Olaf is also currently writing an article for the Very False Documents Press about the Baudelaires, who he claims are murderers!

L.S. I am impressed! I did not imagine you had uncovered so much. What about the remaining Baudelaire parent. Where is he now?

V.B. For that, actually, I do not know the exact address, but I know he is know living in Mount Di
