Mr. Remora is a fictional character from the book series A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket.
In The Austere Academy, Mr. Remora is a teacher at Prufrock Preparatory School. He loves bananas and is constantly seen eating one, smearing banana pulp on his mustache. In his class, students are forced to listen to very tiresome (but short) stories he dictates, after which he gives examinations on various objective aspects of the stories. Lemony Snicket also reveals that Mr. Remora later retired from his teaching job because he choked on a banana.
Mr. Remora reappears in The Penultimate Peril with his fellow teachers, having been invited to a cocktail party, and makes a brief reference to running from the law (possibly a reference to Mrs. Bass's bank robbery). Hal also tries to communicate with him in VFD code, however, he fails to understand, meaning that he is probably not part of VFD. It is not known whether he survived the fire at Hotel Denouement.
A fansite for his employer, Vice Principal Nero is: l
