Similarly, Uncle Monty is justifiably suspicious of "Stephano" but suspects him of being a spy from the Herpetological Society, not a the kids' murderous uncle.

** JimCarrey has been made up to the point where he's almost unrecognizable. When he appears as Stephano, it's almost impossible for you to tell that he's the same person as Count Olaf. When he appears as Captain Sham, though, in the market, his appearance (the hair, namely) is a little less disguised and you can tell it's Olaf a lot more easily. [[spoiler:This latter one is supported by the appearance of one of the women in Olaf's acting troupe turning and saying "Kids, today" with a dramatic chord and a crack of thunder.]]
