Summary

As their outrageous misfortune continues, the Baudelaire orphans are shipped off to a miserable boarding school, Prufrock Preparatory School. They can't help but notice the enormous stone arch bearing the school's motto Memento Mori or "Remember you will die". This is not a cheerful greeting and certainly marks an inauspicious beginning to a very bleak story. They befriend the two Quagmire triplets and find that they have been followed by the dreaded Count Olaf
