A Series of Unfortunate Events Episode 2.06 The Vile Village: Part 2

The orphans find themselves under suspicion in the wake of a devastating murder. But time behind bars leads to an important realization.

Olaf and Esme in their disguises of Detective Dupin and Officer Luciana quickly convinces the town that the Baudelaires committed the murder of "Olaf", using tools from their attempt to rescue Jacques the night before. The Council of Elders condemn the Baudelaires to be burned at the stake at the suggestion of Mr. Lesko.

While in jail, the children convince Hector to prepare his hot-air mobile home to help them escape. Klaus deduces the clues point to a crow statue in the village square, and after breaking out of jail, find the Quagmires were trapped inside. The villagers, led by Olaf and Esme, arrive to take the children. At that time, Larry and Jacquelyn had learned of Jacques' murder and they arrive to distract the villagers long enough for the children to escape via a fire truck and follow Hector.

The Baudelaires cover for the Quagmires as they use the truck's ladder to escape. Just then, Olaf, Esme, and villagers arrive and Esme shoots some of the balloons on Hector's home with an arrow. The Baudelaires tell Hector to escape with the Quagmires. In thanks, the Quagmires try to throw their friends their notes about V.F.D., but Esme shoots them with arrow scattering the pages, but also harming a crow. While the villagers accost Olaf and Esme about the crow they harmed, the Baudelaires collect as many of the note pages as they can and escape in the fire truck.
