Exposition

       Three children that go by the "Boudelair Children". They are Sunny who is 3, Klaus who is 13, and Violet who is 15. They arrive at mill where they will work and work until Violet -the oldest boudelair- becomes of age (18). They get dropped off at the mill by a man named Mr. Poe. He is the person who arranges their legal guardians because the children were orphans. At the mill they find a note saying "Welcome to your new home." The children are gloomy and don't seem satisfied with their new home because it's a mill for wood. They had no idea they were going to have to work when they arrived. The owner of the mill said that in exchange they will be given dinner, gum, and protection from Count Olaf. A man who has killed previous legal gaurdians of the children for his evil plans to steal the children's fortune. The children don't think it's a good deal but can't do anything about it.
