I think I want the second row, third column piece the most. I want to see if Sunny's disguised as a bellhop like her siblings, as I've speculated that she is.
And it's probably just the lighting, but the woman behind Klaus seems to have blue skin. Also, the person to her left looks like he has the face of some reptilian monster...wait, I'm looking at it wrong. It's hard to tell which way he's facing.
Edit: And, interestingly, my computers teacher mentioned Murphy's Law yesterday.

That moustached man looks odd. He seems to have no mouth.

Sorry I screwed up the quoting thing but Dante said: Also, note that Klaus's bellhop hat says Hotel D on it. I hadn't noticed that at first, as it just looked like random lines. Oh, and it's now pretty clear that Violet isn't wearing an eyepatch. Yes I also noticed the Hotel D too...Also has anyone suggested that the bellhop hats they are wearing, were the clue in the last picture of TGG, yet...sorry if they have, and if i am being annoyingly slow and dimwitted ....but I just realised that ....oh and one more thing...it says 'Hotel D' on Klaus's hat, can anyone make out what it says on violet's??

Violet's hat says something like "NOUEMENT"-ie, a later part of the same message, HOTEL DENOUEMENT.

I only just realised this: We now have more tasks remaining than we do regular clues.

Four pieces left. The top row corner and the bottom row piece probably won't be worth much, so we'll probably get those next.
I most want to see the top hat man's face and to see whether Sunny is in the picture, like in front of Violet.
Do you suppose the sunglasses are just a means of disguise, or is it really bright at the hotel? That's not a very good disguise. Although, the adults never seem to see through their disguises in the past, so why start now?

Various forms of eye concealment have always worked for Olaf, so I don't see why they shouldn't work for the Baudelaires. I think they probably are a form of disguise (indeed, they're one of the most clichéd forms). The Baudelaires do need something to obscure their now-infamous faces, and a large pair of sunglasses each should do the trick. (Heh, I hope Sunny's also wearing a pair. That'd be a treat to see.)

Wouldn't be shocking if the name of the hotel wasn't Denoument, I'm not saying thats its not so dn't attack me. . .

It looks fairly dark in that lobby, so I'd assume that the sunglasses are primarily for disguise. Perhaps they were the only thing the Baudelaires could find to disguise themselves, or at least the only item that fit in reasonably well with a bellhop's costume. People would get really suspicious if they saw a bellhop wearing, say, a thick veil or full-face mask.

Or, say, sunglasses indoors. In a dark lobby. I think the adults are just dim.

Do you think? I mean, they couldn't see through the two-headed person and the wolf baby? Come on!

No, but we also have reason to doubt that it is. It would be a cruel joke to switch it on us.

How unfortunate it would be if it were switched! Hopefully they won't do that...... But then again, they probably will.
