In this one, the orphans are taken to their Uncle Monty (They haven't ever met him) who is a herpatologist I think, He studies snakes and reptiles. They have a wonderful time with him until his new assistant arrives, Stefano, only it is really Count Olaf in disguise. After threatening to cut of Sunny's toe, Stefano kills Uncle Monty, making it seem as if a snake did it. He then proceeds to attempt to whisk them away to Peru, but accidently drives into Mr Poe's car (he's the bank manager due in charge of the Baudelaire Fortune) when the children tell him what is going on, and Olaf escapes. The children get back in Mr Poe's car ready to be re-asigned a guardian.

I would give this one a 7.5 out of 10. It is quite good, and I like the style of writting that Snicket uses.
