Jerome Squalor: What do you mean, good work?" | The man with a beard but no hair: "I meant to say, 'there's Olaf!'"[pushs Jerome in the direction of the elevator] "Capture him! He needs to be brought to the authorities!" | Frank (probably): "Olaf is here? I'm going to capture him!" | Ernest (probably): "Where are the Baudelaires? I'm going to capture them!" | The woman with hair but no beard: "In the elevator!" | Violet: "Call the fire department!" . | Either Frank or Ernest: "Which one?" | Count Olaf: "Those judges promised that if I waited until tomorrow I'd see all my enemies destroyed, and now they're trying to capture me. I knew they'd fail me some day." | [the elevator stops on another floor] | Klaus: "There's a fire in the hotel! Everyone leave at once!" | Esmé Squalor: "A fire? Who said that?" | Klaus: "It's Klaus Baudelaire. You need to get out of the hotel!" | Carmelita Spats: "Don't listen to that cakesniffer! He's just trying to escape from us! Let's take off our blindfolds and peek!" | Count Olaf: "Don't take off your blindfolds! Those Baudelaires are guilty of contempt of court, and they're trying to trick you into joining them! There's no fire! Whatever you do, don't leave the hotel!" | Klaus: "We're not tricking you! Olaf is tricking you! Please believe us!" | Esmé: "I don't know who to believe, you orphans are as dishonest as my ex-boyfriend." | Carmelita: "Leave us alone! We can find our own way!" | [the elevator stops on another floor] | Sunny: “Fire! Use stairs. Do not use elevator!" | Mr. Poe: "Sunny Baudelaire? Don't add the false reporting of fire to your list of crimes! You're already guilty of contempt of court, and perhaps murder!" | Justice Strauss: "It's not false! There really is a fire, Mr. Poe! Leave this hotel!" | Mr. Poe: "I can't leave [coughs], I'm still in charge of the Baudelaires' affairs and their parents' fort-" | The elevator doors closed before Mr. Poe could finish his word, and the Baudelaires were taken away from the banke
