Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events Season 2 Ep 7 ‘The Hostile Hospital’ Part 1: From Acne to Zinc Deficiency

Published

on

It totally makes sense, in the world of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events that is, that the firetruck our Baudelaire orphans stole to escape in, would break down right near the Last Chance General Store, out here in the Hinterlands. SPOILERS AHEAD! READERS BEWARE.

And by sheerest most not amazing coincidence, that’s where Count Olaf and his actor cronies, and Esme too, have appeared, on their never-ending quest for that Baudelaire fortune. Or rather, that’s what Olaf wants, because as Esme keeps reminding us, she already has a fortune and just wants that damnable stolen sugarbowl!

One might assume, after far too many acronyms that turned out to be nothing, that our Baudelaires would be less than thrilled about joining yet another group calling themselves VFD. And indeed, the van labeled VFD is full of eternally-cheerful singing Volunteers, who are going to Heimlich Hospital to foist their own brand of medicine on the patients there. Heimlich Hospital is home to the Library of Records, and there’s very little the Baudelaire children love more than information, and books, so it’s to the hospital we go!

Meet Babs, Heimlich Hospital administrator, head of human resources and the party planning committee, and sufferer of panic attacks when the proper paperwork isn’t filed correctly. Somehow she accepts the idea that Olaf is this yet another new disguise, Dr. Matathias Medical School, and the folk with him are varied associates, including Esme in her BDSM nurses outfit. The children manage to find Hal, keeper of the Library of Records, before anyone else does, and make very trustworthy friends with him in a very short time.

The troubling thing is, especially after a Jacques Snicket film reel file comes down the chute that the Baudelaires just have to watch, in order to expeditiously get to the records, they have to steal Hal’s keys. And like any properly raised children, they despair at the idea of misleading an adult who treated them so genuinely kindly.

Remember how Esme keeps saying all she wants is that damnable sugar bowl? Somehow changing her outfit for a Cruella look and destroying the Library of Records to get at Violet, while Klaus and Sunny look on from their hiding places aghast, isn’t really going to help anything, but Esme never was one for tons of forethought. But, we did learn that the missing sugarbowl was originally stolen by Lemony Snicket himself, which raises all kinds of interesting questions about the Baudelaire-Snicket past.

Come again to chase those miserable orphans in The Hostile Hospital Part 2, on Netflix now!

Published

on

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
