abstract
| - Violet, Klaus, and Sunny are sent to a boarding school called Prufrock Preparatory School. They are forced to live in "The Orphan Shack," painted green with pink hearts to humiliate them, because they do not have a letter from their parents allowing them to live in the dormitories. They are forced to deal with several bad situations such as small, grimy living space; vicious crabs which live in the shack; odd tan fungus dripping from the ceiling of the shack; an annoying principal; and nasty children, most notably, Carmelita Spats. But they are able to overcome these and make friends with two other orphans, Isadora and Duncan Quagmire. Both keep notebooks on hand, as aspiring journalist Duncan likes to write down facts, and aspiring poet Isadora likes to write couplets. Isadora and Duncan are actually two members of a set of triplets; their brother Quigley died in the same fire that killed their parents. When the Baudelaires share their misfortunes with the triplets, the two reveal that they too stand to inherit a fortune, through the Quagmire Sapphires. Count Olaf, disguised as "Coach Genghis", appears as the new gym coach. Selecting the Baudelaires specifically for what he says are special orphan tendencies, he makes Violet, Klaus, and Sunny run laps almost every night performing S.O.R.E. (Special Orphan Running Exercises), and is extremely nasty. The Baudelaires are so exhausted that they begin failing their classes. Nero informs them that if Violet and Klaus don't pass comprehensive tests and if Sunny is unable to staple with homemade staples, they will be expelled from school. He tells them that Coach Genghis is willing to homeschool them. The Quagmires devise a plan to help the Baudelaires: Isadora will dress like Violet, Duncan will dress like Klaus, and a bag of flour will take Sunny's place during S.O.R.E. Meanwhile, the older Baudelaires can study from the Quagmire notebooks while creating staples for Sunny. Violet and Klaus pass their tests and Sunny staples satisfactorily, but Genghis comes and says the Quagmires were impersonating the Baudelaires during S.O.R.E. which is the same as cheating. Nero gleefully expels them. They manage to take off Coach Genghis's turban, revealing Count Olaf's unibrow. Vice Principal Nero won't let them stay at the school even though Mr. Poe gets into an argument with him on the subject. Isadora and Duncan are kidnapped by the white-face women and are smuggled into a nearby car. Before the car drives away, they try to tell the siblings about V.F.D.
