This article needs a big cleanup.

It must therefore include events from all sources, including ATWQ. (Please note that the Netflix series is absolutely considered "canon" here, though as a secondary source, due to Handler's extensive involvement in the series.) Additionally, it must be written in the past tense, and dispose of the lists in favour of paragraphed prose. Bringing us to...

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history for more information.

Wrong! It's a list.

This article contains far too many bulleted lists. These sections should be converted into normal prose.

This article lists all of the unfortunate events that happened to the Baudelaire orphans in A Series of Unfortunate Events. Note that this list is arranged in all events that happened within a specific place in time, not all events based on how it was written/mentioned in A Series Of Unfortunate Events (e.g. the Schism is placed before the Baudelaire Fire, even though it was first written/mentioned in The Slippery Slope).

This does not include All the Wrong Questions.

Before The Bad Beginning

The Schism occured, resulting in V.F.D. splitting into two sides. This happened about a decade before even ATWQ.

The Bad Beginning

The Baudelaire Fire resulted in the death of Bertrand Baudelaire and the orphaning of Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire. Beatrice Baudelaire escaped the fire unbeknown to her children. Sadly, they never found out that she was alive. Next, Count Olaf persuaded Mr. Poe to switch the Baudelaires' first guardian of choice from Dr. Montgomery Montgomery to himself (Count Olaf). Jacquelyn gets captured (only in the Netflix series) The Baudelaires and Count Olaf thn meet after the Baudelaires are taken to Count Olaf, their new guardian. The Pasta Puttanesca Incident happened after that, when the Baudelaires made dinner for Olaf and his troupe; however, they were abused due to the fact that Olaf wanted roast beef. Then Klaus Baudelaire solved Olaf's plan to steal their fortune. However, Sunny was imprisoned in Count Olaf's tower. Next, they met Jacquelyn and Gustav (only in Netflix series). Then Jacquelyn escaped to the V.F.D. tunnels and met Gustav and they plannned to attend the Marvelous Marriage play. Violet then invented a contraption to save Sunny; unfortunately, the Hook-Handed Henchman captured Violet. Olaf then puts his plan into action by creating and performing The Marvelous Marriage play; However, Violet used her left hand to sign the marriage document rather than her right hand and therefore the marriage wasn't legal.
