Off current topic: I think that the sugar bowl is in the lake outside of where Hotel D was. Yes it was in the lake at one stage but I think it is implied that the taxi driver now has it. Oh and something else I don't understand. The sugarbowl has been passed around from person to person, why hasn't anyone handed in the evidence yet to the police if it has incriminating evidence against Olaf. And if Olaf did go to jail because of it wouldn't he just esape again like he did before. I think incriminating is not used in a literal sense, purhaps it will change a certain number of VFD members opinions on a topic, say....the topic which started the schism in the first place.

I've also wondered why no one has handed the sugar bowl to the police. Maybe whatever's inside needs to be decoded before it's of any real use to anyone, or is only understandable in context, or could be easily misinterpreted and incriminate the wrong people entirely. Or VFD worries that the police are all corrupt, or just very stupid.

The legal system in the aSoUE setting is apparently much simpler than in real life, judging from the circumstances surrounding the trial in TPP. I imagine that the sugar bowl would have been important evidence in the trial, but maybe it would have been best for all the evidence relating to the case, everything that every volunteer has gathered, should be put before the High Court as well, and that's why they haven't turned it over to the police. They want the High Court to have all the evidence at the same time, so as to completely ensure a conviction of every villain. Of course, it doesn't seem like that will ever happen now.

And years from now, we will read these classic books to our grandchildren, and they will ask, "What was in the sugar bowl Grampa?", and we'll reply,"Good question".

Even if the sugar bowl is never opened in the series, or if its contents are lost, or if it is never mentioned again, then Handler should at least give us enough clues to make a good guess in Book the Thirteenth.

I want you to take your copies of Mr. Snicket's books...easy now...walk over the trash can. That's right. Now throw them away. Don't worry. I'm here to help.

I am sorry but there is no chance of recovery because I have already tied a noose, said my last vows and hanged myself...as the thought was too much to bear...

I also wonder, what is the sugar bowl? WHY DO THE BAUDELAIRE'S NEVER ASK WHEN THEY HAVE THE CHANCE?
They have had many situations they could ask a volunteer e.g. Kit etc, but they always ask other questions.

The Baudelaires always have so many questions to ask that they never really get any questions answered, particularly not questions that we really need answers to. Maybe they're afraid to ask any particularly important questions in case the volunteer they're with turns out to be an imposter.

They always ask weird questions that nobody cares about. Also, I thought they haven't turned the sugar bowl in to the police because they need it.
