Dantes doesn't move, eat, or drink all night. He is going to be imprisoned at the Château d'If. One of the men transporting Dantes threatens him saying he'll put a bullet in his head if he makes another move. Villefort is worried that the King will find out that his father, Noirtier, is a conspiracist.ĭantes is taken to prison and it sees that Villefort couldn't keep his promise. I believe the letter that Dantes was supposed to deliver had something to do with radicalism and Villefort's father, so Villefort tore it up. The woman's mother is the Marquise (add the e). Mademoiselle's father the Marquis of Saint-Meran says that a son shouldn't be punished for his father's sins. De Villefort is the life of the party but his father was a radicalism during the French Revolution. Monsieur de Villefort is being married to Mademoiselle de Saint-Méran. Edmond's father begs for his release but the commissary says it could be a mistake and if so they will release him as soon as possible.Īnother betrothal feast is occurring at the same time but it is for wealthy people. The betrothal feast is supposed to occur but is interrupted because Edmond is arrested. The three men act as if they are happy for Dantes but it is quite obvious as the reader that the only thing they are interested in is screwing him over. How convenient that that is what the other men want to do as well.

Fernand wants to know how to get rid of Edmond. This doesn't look good for Edmond because they all seem to be lined up against him. Fernand is friends with Danglars and Caderousse. Oddly, he seems to be the cousin of Mercedes. Someone else named Fernand loves Mercedes and she denies him. Danglars and Caderousse are friends and clearly now something that Edmond does not. There is a particular type of distaste between Dantes and Danglars.Ĭaderousse is Edmond Dantes's father's neighbor who bent on telling Dantes that he screwed up and should have gone to eat with Monsieur Morrel. The old captain, Captain Leclere dies of brain fever on the voyage. Edmond Dantes, the old first mate, becomes the new captain of the Pharaon after the ship owner, Monsieur Morrel grants him the honor. The Pharaon has landed in Marseille, France on February 24, 1815. (Benedetto childhood and VIllefort burying him is the big one!!) and Some of the stories are a little off because I didn't know what was going on at the time.
