Who knows Olaf is sneaky enough he could have killed Ike, Joshephine would never have known. Also wasnt it hinted that there were members of VFD at Prefrock Prep, some suppose it is a VFD training school, so why wouldnt Olaf have targets??? Unless his targets were the quagmires.

I agree because probably most of the snowscouts would go to Prufrock and based on esme's ranting about fortunes we know that they are children of vfders:Kornbluth, Winnipeg, and who knows, maybe spats! But he didn't know about the quagmires before:"I have no use for these twins" He must not have been communicating with esme very well or he'd have known about them.

Yes, either he had just learned about them then, or was trying to cover something up...

I don't think he was trying to cover up.. He wanted the Quagmires once he knew about them.

Miss Tench fell out a window in TAA which opened up a spot for Count Olaf to be the new gym teacher. It doesn't specifically say Count Olaf tossed out the window, but I wouldn't bet against it. I don't think Miss Tench is a VFD member because she'd have no need to assign reading as a gym teacher. In the LSUA,it says something about the resarchers at P. Prep. and finding out about the sleep affecting the work of the students,please. Miss Tench=researcher? Count Olaf could have gotten the info from Olivia, threatened miss Tench into telling him stuff from her research.Then he killed Miss Tench,so she couldn't warn anyone.

They said in the VFD meeting that S's research on Prufrock showed that children not getting enough sleep affects work, but that was years ago, because it was before the schism! Although Mrs. Bass and Mr. Remora have been teaching there for 47 years, and we never found their 1st names... Anyway here's my version of events just before Prufrock...: Olaf runs away from the mill getting another disguise and lying low for awhile. He talks to Olivia and she has the new enrollment list for Prufrock and uses her fake fortune telling machine to tell him where the bauds are. So he then goes there, throws Miss Tench out of a window(or gets one of his assistants to do it) then shows up for his new teaching post.

That is how it seems to be...

There is still an undeniable trend of him wanting to kill their guardians from Monty-mill.

Here's a thought... many of the gaurdians seemed to be or are obviously were members of VFD... maybe VFD somehow made sure that the children were placed in the care of these individuals... Poe need not have been involved... he is definately not in league with Count Olaf... he would have just handed the children over in tRR... since poe is not the sharpest knife in the drawer he could have been easily influenced by an organization of probable genius' without his own knowledge. Once the Count found out where the children were, it was always with a VFD member and he was always coniently ready to kill 2 birds with one stone... perhaps the Baudelaires were placed in the care of these various gaurdians because they are in training for VFD (stated before) after all the children are very bright, they're parents were almost undoubtedly members of organization, doesn't it seem like they would fit the bill for the types of children they tryed to recruit!

When were the quagmires ever dragged away by their ankles? I don't think they're in training for VFD, but some people undoubtedly intended to start training them.
