  A\ N: Y'all did the impossible..
70 reads?! Thanks for all the support you guys have given me!
Anyway, let me rant about this chapter. So, I debated on how I'd let this fanfiction continue. Literally there's a whole page, lying on my desk of ways to continue this fanfiction. I even debated on deleting last week's chapter.. So, after binging Asoue on Netflix, and watching the Nickelodeon 2004 version, (it wasn't bad!) I finally put it all together. Hope you guys don't think it sucks.. (That's what I think it is..) Sorry For the rant, enjoy the rest. :)

  Duncan's POV:

                        We all turned around to see a somewhat tall man, with a very cheerful expression. "Are you Mr. Squalor?" Violet asked. "Why, yes I am! But call me Jerome!" He said. "Come in! I'll make you some martinis!" He said letting us walk in. "Martinis? Isn't that an alcoholic beverage?" Klaus asked, as he picked up Sunny. "Not the IN martinis. This is just fancy water with Olives." Passing us some "martinis". I took a sip. Tasted like water. I looked at Violet, who seemed to be thinking the same thing. We chuckled silently. "ORPANS WERE OUT, and now there In." We heard a cheerful voice from above us. "Hello, Hello. My name is Esme Gigi Genevieve Squalor, 6th most important financial advisor in the city." She said, descending down the stairs. "And you must be the Baudelaires and the Quagmires." She said at the end of the stairs. "My name is viol-" Violet started. "I'll learn your names later. Now, Jerome, Darling find them some pinstripe suits before someone sees them in those uniforms, and my reputation is ruined." She said exiting. "Pinstripes?" Isidora asked. "Yes, pinstripes! They are very IN right now. Come now Children, I'll lead you too your rooms."

He led us down a long corridor which to me seemed like it never ended. "Here we are!" He said. We all entered a big room with a big couch, fireplace, and 2 doors. Jerome picked up 5 boxes and passed them all out to the five of us. "Here are your pinstripes! One door leads to the Baudelaire's room, and the other to the quagmires. Make yourself at home." He said, and exited. "Wow. I've never seen such a penthouse." I said, looking around the room. "And I've never seen such a long corridor." Violet said. We all laughed. "We better get changed into these pinstripes, I have a feeling we aren't to a great start with Esme.." Isidora said.

5 minutes later, we came out looking like absolute weirdos to us, but to the world, civilized, In, people. We all laughed seeing our ridiculous outfits. "Sedgrecli" sunny said, meaning, I can't help wonder why these are IN..

We heard Esme scream.  Before we could worry we heard her yell, "DARK IS OUT! LIGHT IS IN!" "This will take some getting used to.." Klaus said, sighing.

I'm afraid we'll be using that sentence a lot..

A LOT.
