What did Aunt Josephine point out to Captain Sham?
“I will thank you not to be impertinent,” Aunt Josephine said, using a word which here means “pointing out that I’m wrong, which annoys me.” Apparently the fact that Sham has a business card with the name ‘Captain Sham’ on it is proof that he is exactly who he says he is.

How did Count Olaf hide his leg?
Count Olaf was later uncovered when Sunny used her four sharp teeth to bite open his peg leg in front of Arthur Poe, who pursued Olaf but failed to capture him. The disguise could later have been used by Jacques Snicket when he captains the Prospero, though this is never confirmed.
Why was Count Olaf evil?
He is an enemy to the Baudelaires and plots to steal the Baudelaire Fortune from them. As Olaf had gained notoriety for numerous counts of arson, the Baudelaire orphans believed he may have caused the fire that killed their parents, but he neither confirmed nor denied it when confronted by the Baudelaires in The End.
