So when Olaf did show up as the gym teacher, the Baudelaires were shocked but pretended not to notice because they believed this would give them more time. Almost all the students there were cruel bullies apart from the two Quagmire triplets.Д«efore hand, Nero had shown the children a picture of Count Olaf he had on his computer so he could recognize him if he showed up - what Mr Poe always forgot to mention was how Olaf was always in disguise. What had enraged the Baudelaires especially was that Mr Poe had promised them that Prufock Prep was a very well mannered and sophisticated place with sympathetic teachers and interesting students, yet it turned out to be the exact opposite. But when he thought he was alone, Nero snickered - the most evil sound the Baudelaires had heard.

When Nero finally proclaimed he was too busy to make exceptions the Baudelaires left his office. This inevitably disgusted Klaus and Violet and to add insult to injury Nero said no matter, Sunny would still be punished just for showing up to work in the administrative building! This was so unfair Violet and Klaus wanted to scream at him, but, given Nero had already mocked everything they said already, they knew it was best to just bite the bullet.

He then crossed the Moral Event Horizon in minutes of his first encounter by employing Sunny Baudelaire as his secretary even though Nero knew she was only a baby and such work was beyond her. He said that they would 'get an education if they had to break their arms to get it.' He then went on to say that if he saw them in his administrative office again he'd have them expelled or punished.

When the Baudelaire orphans arrived, seeking a place free from Count Olaf's evils, Vice Principal took an immediate displeasure in hosting them. Nero was very unwelcoming to newcomers, especially orphans, in his evil regime. If the students missed Nero's nocturnal violin concerts (which were torture) they had to buy him a large bag of chocolate and watch him eat it in front of them. Nero invented incredibly cruel punishments for the slightest misdemeanour - for instance, being late to lunch entailed students to have their silverware snatched away from them and drinks poured in puddles. Given Snicket's sense of humour, it's likely there never was a principal to begin with and Nero chose this name as he thought it made him sound grander. It's always unknown who really runs the school - if Nero is the Vice Principal, he should have a superior who is the real Principal. Sometime he became Vice Principal of Prufock Prep, ruling it like a dictatorship.

Along with Olaf, Nero may have been one of the founders of the V.F.D Schism. as a child, but from Nero's love of burning wood, it's probable he despised V.F.D and joined with Count Olaf to destroy it. As Nero is of the same generation as Lemony Snicket and his family, he may have been recruited by V.F.D.
