In this episode of The Countdown of Monte Cristo, Villefort makes his most direct appeal yet: Napoleon is preparing to return. The king listens—politely—but assures himself the danger is minimal. While Villefort emphasizes urgency and sacrifice, Louis XVIII insists Bonaparte will be stopped before he ever sets foot on French soil.
Then, M. Dandré enters—ashen, shaken—and the illusion begins to crack.
Key Events:
•Villefort warns of a conspiracy born in Elba and spread through coded oral messages
•He stresses his loyalty by noting he left his own betrothal to deliver the news
•Louis XVIII downplays the risk, confident Napoleon has no support and no path to victory
•The king recites Europe’s strategic readiness as assurance
•M. Dandré bursts in, clearly rattled, suggesting the threat is no longer hypothetical
