THE GRAAF OF MONTE-CRISTO PART 1 "THE BETRAYAL"

THE EVENING OF 28 FEBRUARY 1815 IN MARSEILLE

Mercedes, I'm bad news; the "Pharao" did not come back.

She has definitely sunk. That is bad for you.

Who says that? The harbor commander.

I do not believe it. I do not believe anyone.

He sees disasters everywhere, since his wife is cheating on him.

All of Marseille will tell you.

Believe what you want. I know: Dantes is coming back.

So what ? You will be my wife and not his.

Oh yeah? Certainly!

I am a stiff-headed, like all Mondegos.

Me too. I am your niece. I always get what I want!

I went into the army 18 months ago. I had nothing. That is now over.

I am now a non-commissioned officer. Napoleon started that way too.

Napoleon! You have an oath Louis the 18th.

That does not mean anything. Napoleon was prepared for Louis the 18th.

The result, that's what it's about. You have to adjust in time.

Then marry a rich woman. No. I am loyal to you.

Once we will rule Paris! Poor Fernand! You are out of your mind.

And you are waiting for a sunken ship!

Fernand! - Yes, sunk!

An advice! Do not look at it alone this side of the horizon.

The prefect of police does not like that.

350 kilometers away is one small island where Napoleon, that has been banned from the mainland, became king. The island of Elba.

We'd like to say something to you, Captain. - We are satisfied.

Satisfied, what do you mean? Simply, we are just satisfied.

"Captain" Dantes changes the course and rules on land.

We are already 36 hours late.

I am only the second officer and I have to keep the order.

What are you doing? Prepare you to passenger? Working!

Dantes is not on board. Now I am the captain!

I'll put you in the chains if you not obey.

Taste Mr. Captain!

-Aah, delicious

Why are we waiting here? I give away a barrel of wine if someone knows that.

Present gun!

You certainly expect the captain of the "Pharao".

Yes. Where is he? He died of the fever last week.

He asked me to give you this.

The poor captain!

I want to ask you for a service.

Do not be afraid. It has nothing to do with politics.

In Paris they think we are conspirators. We are not.

Here is the proof. Just read this. Yes, read it!

Monsieur, Your assignment will are carried out.

50 barrels of white wine and 50 barrels of red wine will be shipped on February 28th.

A shipping company then transports them to Paris. They will arrive there on March 20th.

These are ordinary things. Mr. de Grootmaarschalk ...

The captain must send this letter to our representative.

I only have to deliver a letter and my assignment has ended.

Good. This was it

Do not be bothered!

Your ship will sail under the royal flag.

You then make a detour via Elba. The world is afraid of me.

I am pleased with the visit of one French sea officer.

What is your name? Edmond Dantes.

I knew a Dantes. He was.... -Tamber in the 2nd wardrobe regiment, Sire.

That was my cousin. Those drummers were the best.

Was your cousin good?

No, Sire. Unfortunately.

Goodbye. You are lucky that you have the is in charge of the "Pharaoh".

A beautiful ship. Who is the owner? -Monsieur Morel. -An excellent shipping company.

Bring him my congratulations!

Mr. de Grootmaarschalk, I will send the letter.

What is the address? The letter is retrieved.

Do they know that I have him? Yes. You are the successor to the captain.

Who will get him off? A man named Noirtier. Safe voyage.

Departure immediately! Then you are the day after tomorrow in Marseilles.

All hands on the sails!

Hoist the sails!

The "Pharao" is there!

Monsieur Morel, she is here! She is now sailing in!

Who is there? - The "Pharao"!

The "Pharao" is there! I knew she was coming. Do not be a stiff head. Come on, Fernand!

Do not be so jealous! I do not have time.

Monsieur Dantes! Monsieur Dantes!

What is it? Why do not you say anything? -I am afraid of your heart.

Prepare for a big surprise.

Your son is back again!

Come! Look what you look like. Where is your hat?

There he is. And a tie.

I do on the way. Where is my stick? - In your hand.

Sad ... He was a good captain. How is the goods?

Have you suffered any damage? Answer. You are now captain.

No, no damage. Here are the ship's papers.

The inventory was in order.

Monsieur Dantes, Your father is waiting with a lady.

Then quickly! - The log.

You have already told everything. You go!

Can I put the log here? Yes, I will read it later.

I'm looking forward to it already. - Perhaps you will also be amazed about this

What is that? The speed for two hours interrupted at open sea?

Yes, near a small island.

The old captain needed one deliver package. Do you understand?

Dantes only carried out an assignment. As you say, discipline is important.

Yes I know. - I'm only honest.

You know me anyway. I say what I think.

You get married in a week. It is now registered.

He pretends to marry himself .. That is almost true. We are friends.

We only spoke to you .. .. and Viktor.

Who is Viktor? Your first son will be called that.

That will probably be a smart apekop!

I already see him before me. With a torn pants ...

Can you remember your promise? Yes. an engagement party when I returned.

We invite all our friends.

Dantes! I was looking for you. Monsieur Morel, this is my future.

We know each other. We have been talking about a year the engagement.

I invite you to come with me to drive home ..

But the customs, the paper store .... Caderousse does that. Let's go!

Caderousse! Come tonight too! Yes I'll be there!

He was born for happiness. Born for happiness!

Do you have some wine left ?? No, everything is in barrels.

The customs are coming. Now you can play captain.

Napoleon greeted you! Yes, he even pushed my hand.

How did he find the "Pharao"? He congratulated you.

Does he know me? - Yes. he said...

Morel belongs to the best shipowners.

I hope I can call quickly: Long live ...

...the bride.

Something bad? A message from cousin Fernand.

I wanted to introduce you to him. What is it?

He has to leave. We can still see him as we do rushing us. Come to the carriage!

To Mr. Chief Public Prosecutor ...

Do you always write so slowly? You told me to write with my left hand.

As a friend of the Crown and the Church, let me know that ...

Is it true that people laughed at me? Yes, at that table in the back.

One said there: For Caderousse captain becomes, the fish learn to fly.

Stupid pigs!

Edmond Dantes, Officer of the "Pharao" ...

Another bottle!

... delivered a letter the day before yesterday ...

Tell me, why is this possible? remain anonymous?

Names are unimportant. Is it the truth?

Of course Well then ..

Yes, the truth does not need a signature.

You've had enough. I never have enough.

The truth lies in the wine. I am proof of that.

... delivered a letter the day before yesterday the island of Elba.

Beware. They are coming. I do not want to see them.

Good day Captain.

Hello, Captain! You should not call me that.

Do you know Fernand Mondego? Have you seen him here?

He just drove away. In a wagon of the army.

Unfortunately. Then we celebrate it without him.

Are you sorry? A little.

Do you drink a glass of wine with me? We will see each other at once, right?

We have a request. Do you want to be our witness?

Oh, please, Monsieur Caderousse.

Do you want to do that for us? -Agreement?

I am surprised. Agreement. - Thank you, old boy.

You get a kiss for that. -I?

Of course you. See you tonight.

My God, my God, my God.

I do not want to write out. -Why? He just gave me another hand ...

The right hand may not know what the left hand.

That girl is even more beautiful than last year. That man is very lucky.

Do be quiet. They are stuck on the beach. He's holding her in his arms ...

So: the island of Elba!

He had a meeting with that Napoleon and received a letter.

... received a letter.

Do you believe what is written in the hand? Our fate is in it. Everything.

This too? - Yes, sure and for sure.

I can not read the future like if you always kiss me.

Read that future.

What is it, a scar? - Oh, nothing.

An accident? No. Do not ask any further.

As you wish.

I did that. I had a nightmare.

You left me for good.

I woke up. You know that I am superstitious.

I've inflicted myself that wound, so that the dream was defeated.

That evil dream has not come true. You are here.

Do you hear that? Our song! Do you remember?

I closed my eyes whenever I did heard when you were gone.

And then I was with you in your mind.

We have to go back. -Why? Is not it beautiful here?

We arrive late at the party.

I kidnap you! We rent a carriage and hide us somewhere.

We can do that as the party is over.

Do not lock the door? -No never.

Does Edmond Dantes live here? - Yes.

I would like to speak to him.

My son is not there. - Did he leave a letter?

My name is Noirtier. - No, he did not leave anything behind.

Mercedes! What is it?

Did Edmond leave a letter? No.

I'm sorry, sir.

Do you celebrate? - Yes, an engagement.

You should dare in the year 1815. Anyway, I'll come back again.

Bye.

Sir, sir! How was your name again?

Noirtier.

Red beard, black cloak, hat, honorary sign of the honorary.

His name? He changes him daily.

Did he come from Paris? With a carriage.

Is he in Marseille now? Yes. Our spy there says it.

And that unknown? He is a spy of Napoleon!

The minister says that all traces to Leading Marseille. -The minister?

You are reliable, although your family is revolutionary. - What do you mean?

Your father was an officer with the emperor. -I never see him.

I am with the daughter of the Marquis de Saint-Meran betrothed.

This engagement is approved.

Basis for this connection his heart and conviction.

That belongs to a spouse. Exactly my opinion.

I overthrowed that Corsican. I did that too.

I never have: "Long live the Emperor!" called. Me neither. Never!

That is why we were always able .... ... count on each other.

Father! You should not come here. I could not do anything else.

The streets of Marseille are dangerous. You have to be able to hide somewhere.

Were you shadowed again? -Yes, you get used to that.

I saw the Ministry of Justice and reminded me that you had office space here.

I immediately felt fatherly feelings the second chief public prosecutor Noirtier ..

De Villefort! I never believe that adopted name will get used to.

I wanted you bonapartist flee past.

You know my views. They fit every government.

And you are a conspirator. Hell yes!

It is betrayal if I am not you delivery.

Betrayal? - I have a conscience.

That is good, but not enough. Someone like you needs two.

One for today and one for tomorrow. Today is your engagement day.

Should the Marquis then read: "Father von Chief Public Prosecutor Noirtier arrested "?

De Villefort. Yes, yes, all good!

Today that double name is useful. De Villefort can save Noirtier.

And he does.

General Noirtier helps the Villefort, in case the emperor comes back.

Decide now! What will it be?

You're right. A son must be save father. Go there.

Forgive me, sir, the Chief Public Prosecutor. We chase a suspect.

He fled this ministry. You gotta be kidding me!

I am an Officer of the King! We know that. But order is command.

Where does this door go? A private entrance to my office.

An input can also be an exit. I keep the key with me.

Excuse me, my son. I did not know you were still visiting.

I do not want to disturb now. Do not you want to stop him for too long?

He must be with his fiance tonight opening the ball.

Remember the words of Talleyrands: "Blind diligence is only harmful"

Greet the makies from me! Do not blame me.

As said: "Blind diligence is only harmful"

Do not let me stop you. Do your duty.

You see that there is no one. We search the other offices.

You do that! The guard commander will notify me if there is news.

Monsieur de Villefort? -What do you want?

As a friend of the throne and of the church let me know that Edmond Dantes, officer on the "Pharao" the day before yesterday Elba stopped and had a maintenance with Napoleon, who gave him a letter. If you arrest him, you will find a letter with him. Signed X

Dear Dantes! Lady Fortuna is favorable to you:

The best ship and the most beautiful girl from France.

I would like to be here exchange with you

Then I would know how lucky to the touch.

Open in the name of the King! - That's probably a joke.

Which of these gentlemen is Edmond Dantes?

What do you want from me?

I arrest you in the name of the King.

Why? You will hear that during the interrogation.

This is his engagement party! - I have a warrant for detention.

We know each other anyway. Tell me what it is about?

I can not. I am a police officer.

It must be a mistake! - Then that will soon be solved.

Doubtless. Do you have any idea, boy?

No dad. Move forward!

See you next time.

Monsieur Morel ... See you soon.

Caderousse ... - See you later.

I bet he will be right back again! Forward, ahead. It's time.

Start dancing!

Stay here! Do not leave me! -I have to hear this person today.

Monsieur de Villefort only does his duty.

He might thus prevent a plot from the Bonapartists.

However, I only celebrate an engagement once. Do not waste the evening, father!

Your grandfather died on the scaffold! - We lived in exile for 10 years!

I had to give piano lessons! - You're just talking about that!

I dance only once tonight!

Hopefully, Monsieur is looking for the Villefort does not.

I demand against Napoleon's spies always the death penalty.

Do that this time. - But father!

Renee! What are those new views of humanity?

Ask your fiancée rather to be unrelenting. Well ahead!

Gerard, be irreverent.

But not too much. Today is our engagement. This is my first request.

I promise.

Within!

The commissioner brought in Edmond Dantes. Let him come in.

Monsieur Dantes!

Please correct this misunderstanding quickly.

My guests are waiting. Which guests?

I am betrothed. This fault is very unpleasant.

You can not imagine that. Do you believe?

Why am I here? - You are Edmond Dantes, Captain of the "Pharao".

Yes. You were never bonapartist?

I have traveled around the world. But politically ...

Do you have an enemy? I do not know.

They never know that. Read this letter. He's about you.

The handwriting is twisted.

Prove that this accusation is false.

If you never receive a letter from Elba you are immediately free.

But I did, sir the Chief Officer. Here he is.

He's talking about barrels of wine, not about politics.

Maybe a letter with a code. But do not panic!

You have a good impression.

Nobody thinks that you would do something bad. Your credulity is your crime.

I can not lock you up for that. -Do you release me?

Certainly. I'm happy about that. For you and for me.

Why for you? -I also celebrate my engagement.

That is a rare coincidence. Do you really let me go?

Of course. An engagement gift for my upcoming.

Mine is waiting with impatience. -My probably too.

Another moment. Who was that letter intended for? There was no address.

A certain Monsieur Noirtier would pick him up.

What did you say? -Noirtier.

Does anyone know about this letter?

No nobody. - Well done.

I will show you my benevolence and destroy him.

This means that every track has been erased.

Satisfied? I then you, Master Chief.

We only know in Marseille two of this letter.

Do not talk about it anymore! Then nothing can happen to you.

I never saw that letter.

And Monsieur Noirtier? -Never heard of it.

Swear that on the Bible.

Raise your right hand! -I swear.

Can I go now? -Men will do an escort.

Another moment! And you will be brought home.

Thank you, Mr. Officer.

Close the door!

Here is an order. Read it!

"Edmond Dantes must be at Chateau d'If be locked up. Strict secrecy and monitoring. "

Where are you bringing me heme? You must come along without a break.

You are ordered to release me let. What are you doing now?

Let me go!

Take me to Paris!

Sire, even on Elba remains Bonaparte very dangerous.

Oh no, do not worry. Napoleon is playing at the water ..

You know, our Minister of Police is very reliable.

Listen to the civil servants from Marseille, if you do not believe me!

All right then. I will hear them.

A gift from my cousin, the Emperor of Austria.

We have to hurry!

Look at those telegrams. Yes Sire.

I received information that Napoleon ... - ... tries to knock me off the throne.

So you came as soon as possible Paris, to share that with me.

You can go back to Return to Marseille.

Please send my heartfelt greetings the Marquis de Saint-Meran.

Sire! I telegram came 5 minutes ago.

Napoleon landed on March 1! - Today is March 3!

You are with your entire police force again the last one that belongs!

An official from Marseilles knows it before. We will never forget this.

Am I fired? - You know better ...

I do not like stupid heads. But I do not like new faces even less.

Bonaparte has probably already been arrested.

We will accept it for Your Majesty to have a chain dance like a fairground.

At work, my lords!

The emperor landed 92 days ago. Today his image is only hung up.

The official roads are long. - And always a government too late.

Chief Public Prosecutor de Villefort? Noirtier, please.

It's about Dantes. His father, fiance and friends are here.

A great delegation. Come on in!

Yes, Dantes. Wait a second..

He was charged because he would serve Napoleon. The King had him arrested.

However, we are now with the Emperor. I did what the king asked me, like everyone else.

My father has been restored to his honor. You can trust me.

If Dantes is not released, I will to turn to the Emperor!

I do not know where he is. He has been transferred several times.

I write to the prison directors and will call on the Minister.

Then he must be released. Many thanks.

No thanks. I only do my duty. I will personally occupy myself with it.

Have you been at court before? of the Emperor? -Hell yes

Is there any news from the battle? Not yet

Where is this? Near Waterloo.

An unknown place. Napoleon wins, of course.

Then you celebrate Dante's release and the victory of the battle at Waterloo on one day.

Is that for the courier? - That can wait until tomorrow.

Are you back there with your drunken head! -I am used to insults.

Listen!

I will give you 100 pieces of silver. And you have that money?

In my house. It is all that I possess. I give it to you.

You only have to issue a letter Then they shut me up.

I break your bones if he refuses.

Then I lie quietly in it for four weeks hospital holiday.

But you are being beaten up. That is worse.

I want to go to the Governor! Why not immediately go to the good God?

Yes, but ... What should I do? Wait.

Those many moves work me on the nerves.

How are you doing now? - I believe I'm going to die.

What do you think now !!

Here is your soup. -Thank you.

Thanks, Monsieur Morel. -Has he paid everything again?

Yes, also the rent. You should not do that.

You have your own concerns. -Who says that?

You have already sold a ship. - The "Pharaoh" remains for my son.

I hope so. My wife sewed this money bag for you.

I like to accept it, but without money in it. -Do not.

I really wanted my grandson.

But now I do not believe that will be able to do more.

Pep him up a little, Monsieur Morel.

You must not mess up your time with my nursing.

And do not wait for my son anymore. Edmond is coming back.

I will help you ... See, so ..

Are you still coming?

Cut off a piece for me.

Luitenat Mondego. My congratulations. -I know you .. Yes, that delegation!

Do not talk to me about that. That was against my will.

I saw you before that too. -On one evening in February 1815.

Many have benefited of this encounter.

You too? -As Chief Public Prosecutor in the exercise of my profession.

You tell me if you ever my help needs.

Many thanks. I'm jealous of you. -Because of my promotion?

No, to your future wife. I would also like to get married.

Mercedes? -How do you know that?

She could not stand me at the time. She does not want to marry me.

She is waiting for Dantes. She believes that he is still alive.

You demand a lot. -He does not really have to die.

She just has to believe it. - Many have been executed after the power change.

There were many deaths without it death certificate.

Now there is such a certificate without dead.

A wonderful solution. -Agreed. Poor Dantes!

Poor Dantes. Poor Dantes.

Now to number 27, sir the Inspector. That is....

I can not read his name. It has faded due to the moisture.

How long is he here? - 17 months.

Solitary confinement? -Yes.

That solitary confinement is good. After two years they have become insane.

They no longer suffer like them insane.

You want the director of the prison ask a few questions, Dantes.

I already know what you are going to answer. I hear the same thing over and over again.

You are innocent. The food is bad.

Put on that habit. -The food does not matter to me.

Why? -He does not eat anymore.

I want a conviction. -Is he not condemning?

I want to know what I would have done! -What is he in here for?

I do not know. -I will check your case.

You are going to review my case ... Yes of course. But do you continue with food!

It is not as good as in one restaurant, but the soup tastes good.

I hope you come to my next visit are condemned. And wiser.

Would you like to ask something? Yes. What day is today?

July 30, 1816. Thank you, Mr. Inspector.

Why is he here?

I believe by order of Monsieur de Villefort.

He left Dantes the day before the arrival of Napoleon.

A bonapartist! Then we can let the matter rest better.

Are you doing better?

Was there happened to that food bowl? Fallen on the floor.

Then you get solitary confinement. - I already have that.

Then you are lucky. But I'm not going get a new container for you.

180 steps to climb. That's nothing for me. Eat this now.

Everthing allright? - Everthing allright.

Do you hear me? Are you still there?

Are you afraid to answer? What is it?

Do I hear voices now? I have lost my mind.

Who are you. Answer! And where are you?

Prisoner number 27. -I am number 34.

Do you have a tool? -A piece of iron.

You work towards me!

Here? -No, not quite

Here? -Yes. Which is good.

Who are you? -I am ... I was Abb Faria.

Abb Faria ...

I am no longer used to that someone speaks my name.

Faria used to be a famous name.

All revolutionary Italians applauded him

Who are you? - Edmond Dantes.

Edmond Dantes ... My name also sounds strange now.

You're certainly not zoalng here? -17 months. Or two years?

I do not know exactly how long.

How long have you been trapped here? -10 years.

Convicted to life imprisonment. In France and in Italy.

Why? -Because I love freedom.

You were a conspirator! -Yes, conspirator against all tyrants.

I'm still that. The hatred gives me strength.

You are also a political prisoner, otherwise you were not here now.

Tell me about your enemies. I will tell you about mine.

Then we plan how we can take revenge. -I do not want to take revenge.

As the revenge for justice leads, there is nothing more beautiful.

Who should I take revenge on? I have no enemies.

I was brought here without a sentence. -Who gave the order to that?

Nobody wanted to tell me that. We're looking for that! If you do not lie ...

..and I see that you are not lying, then we punish the guilty.

I fight iniquity with all my strength.

We will enter into the battle together. We have the means.

Listen carefully! You now see a prisoner dressed in rags.

But this is perhaps the richest man in this world.

Do you also think I'm insane? -No, I admire you.

How do you get that courage after ten years? -I work on my flight every day.

I try everything. I pretend I'm crazy.

I tried to buy the guards, I offered the director a capital.

Everything for nothing. Then made I like this tool.

I've been digging for more than three years. Much work to get a few stones loose.

Again for nothing! My calculations were wrong.

I wanted to go under the prison wall, to the upper cliff.

The rocks are there! I have my oriented when they brought me here.

We start the work again! -But that takes years, even with two men.

Time does not matter, if you have hope.

Together we will experience the day, that we will see the sea.

The sea...

All hands on deck!

Captain, there's a storm. I do not care about that. Here I recommend!

You are a hard one. I'm in charge here. After God.

But God does not see us here. Otherwise we were not here.

Let's drink on your early appointment.!

I am a Turkish consul!

That's why I bring you to Constantinople.

How did you come to this important function?

Through an official of the King. Let us drink on his health!

I think I know his name. Health!

He certainly feels healthy. Better as Dantes. He died so young ....

I'm sorry for him. That is fate, my friend.

The Arabs say "Kismet". The whole life has been described before.

At Dantes with the left hand. You talk too much!

One of us can flee safely, even if the work fails.

How?

They sew dead prisoners in one bag of tarpaulin and throw it into the sea.

You only need the place of it to take the dead.

But in such a bag you are drowning anyway! You have to cut it open in advance.

You need a knife for that. -I have a knife.

I have been working on this for a long time. Just try it sharp enough.

You see, the survivor can flee. You are the youngest.

You have enough patience to be on that day to wait?

Do you think I would kill you? No, you have no evil thoughts.

You can look right in my face.

God will be about us decide.

DAYS MONTHS YEARS EXPIRED

Another small piece! Then we have to go up again.

Reverend, are you injured? Answer anyway!

Are you hurt, Reverend?

I can not move anymore. Something has been broken.

I call someone. No, you should not call anyone!

Save your energies for the night. - I will not survive this night.

You must not die! Anyway. But it does not worry me.

My experiences, my thoughts, my work: nothing has been lost.

I transfer everything to you. You live. You will become my successor.

I beg you... -I tell you my secret now.

Listen Dantes! You'll agree richest man in the world.

I found a treasure. The treasure of C sar Spada.

This treasure is more than already two centuries at Orbetello.

On the island of "Monte-Cristo". On the wall there .... on the wall ...

Yes there...

The map of the island. The weapon of the Spada family.

In the Cave ... The Treasure. The treasure!

Take it easy! -The treasure.

Do not you believe me? - Yes, but you have a fever.

Swear that you're going there! -I swear.

You see it. God has decided.

It is his will that you are the justice serves.

Punish the guilty!

But .. The knife! Do not forget it!

I will take your place. -My son....

He sleeps again during the day. I want to have such a lazy life.

Are you ill?

That will soon be colder in the water. - He will certainly no longer freeze.

A!

Two!

Tree!

Dirty mess.

You are right. You can do the sleep all day when we have to work.

Is something wrong?

Help!

Help!

That is probably an ambush of customs. Stir to port!

Turn up, Jacopo? -I do not let people die.

Customs will not come here. -I said sharply to port!

Help!

Did you take a morning bath? Where are you from?

Answer! We do not take everyone!

Our ship was on the rocks last night.

Rocks? True? - Over there.

Why do we have that not seen?

We have not seen shipwrecked people either. Everything is lying!

Tell us the truth! No.

Those are the guns of Chateau d'If! Probably a prisoner has fled.

Here! That is rum. You have that probably no longer drunk.

What day is today? The 28th of February.

Which year? - 1833.

Nonsense I do not make a joke.

1833? No, I never believe that.

18 years.

Drink! You are safe here on board. Prefer refugees as customs.

You know!

Of course! Refugees get it great salvo. 12 cannon shots!

If they catch you again, it will be only 12 gunshots.

They will not grab you.

Fine, I will soon leave you. Drop me off at one of these small islands.

When are you coming back here? -over eight days.

Get me on the return journey! Where do you want to go?

To the island of Monte-Cristo. Agreed. We are there tomorrow afternoon.

In eight days! -Yes, in eight days!

Wait. Someone is right.

What do you wish? I do not want to disturb...

Yes, we have a small party. Only one question!

Do you know a certain Monsieur Dantes? He lived here.

Monsieur Dantes? Yes, he lived here. But he's been dead for a while.

And .. Miss Irera?

Mercedes Irera? - That was a long time ago, right?

About twenty years. We did not live here yet.

Aunt Helene, Aunt Helene! - They call me.

We continue to celebrate. One must seize every opportunity.

PUBLIC SALE FROM REAL ESTATE at the expense of A. MOREL

What happened to Monsieur Morel? -Have you read that announcement?

He is loved. Therefore his house is still auctioned.

The creditors still have patience. Everything was against him.

The competition, the government .... Why the government?

Because of his views. He also had a lot of bad luck.

Drink a glass with me. -Gladly.

Everything started with the downfall of the "Pharaoh". - Has she sunk?

Yes, and in calm weather. The ship had a strange captain.

A drunk, called Caderousse. -Caderousse?

Yes. His predecessor was political reasons.

What was that name again ... -Is Caderousse still captain?

No. After that shipwreck he had to leave.

He is now married and has an inn at the Pont du Gard.

Here is nothing to experience on a Saturday night. Why am I also married to a dignitary?

Your fault that nobody comes. You are deceiving the people.

At least I do that with a smile.

Where was that smile when I was wanted to borrow money from the bank?

I did not want to deceive them. All talk.

If only a poor man looks at me are you furious. If he is rich, you think it's good.

The reason is that we are bankrupt. -We are poor because you are a sleeper.

You let smugglers goods hide in our basement!

That is dangerous. Exactly. You're a limp.

Do you want a blow? Give it a try. Coward.

You are not a man!

Excuse me. I am Father Busoni. I want to speak to Caspar Caderousse.

I have no money. -I do not ask for alms either.

Then sit down. This is my wife.

Did you know a ship's officer in 1815? called Dantes?

Oh, very good. I was second officer and his best friend.

I was completely broken from when he was arrested.

He was later shot dead. -How do you know that?

Fernand Mondego. Do you know that? -He was the cousin of Dante's wife.

He said that Dantes died in 1816 - Did Mercedes believe that?

Yes. Otherwise she was not with Fernand married.

That was a cunning fox! Was not Dantes shot somewhere?

No, he died not long ago. I have given him the last sacraments.

Did he really know why he was locked up? -No.

What a time in which we live! So he ended up miserably ...

No, he was in prison a rich friend.

He left him a diamond. -A diamond?

A real? -Here he is.

How much is it worth? -50,000 franc. With the ring still more.

Are you the heir? -No, the executor testamentary.

The proceeds will be between his father, Mercedes and his friend Caderousse divided.

His father is dead! -I know. So it is divided into two.

Can I see him? -Please.

Magnificent! Why in two parts? -Mercedes gets one half!

That is a lot. -Why?

Tell him. Talk! -I know, she's married.

Is there another reason? - Many reasons.

She is rich enough. Mondego has a lot of money earned.

He is now called Graaf van Morcerf. That is no reason to exclude her.

Dantes was betrayed. -I do not believe that

Mondego did that. -Quiet. That is only a guess.

Yes then... -It's true!

Shut up!

My husband saw Fernand end of the letter. - Who started it?

I was drunk! -Fernand has issued the letter.

That encumber the legacy. -Give us that stone.

Dantes did not have a better friend than that Caderousse.

I buried his father.

YOU? -I sold the furniture.

We were very sad about it. That table is his.

Those chairs too. -And that lamp.

That tablecloth and that money exchange. -We have not forgotten that.

A J and an M? Those are not his initials.

Monsieur Morel gave it to him fair with some money in it.

Then everything is clear. You are entitled to the diamond.

It is late. I have to go. - Can I offer you something else?

A memento of your friend Dantes? -Yes, that money exchange.

Of course, if it is empty. -I'll be happy with that ...

Please! - Many thanks, Madame. Bye!

That stone will bring you happiness! You earned it.

Hopefully he is real. -Of course!

I will not go today to the church.

We ask that jeweler Bondieu from Paris. He is now in the city.

Nobody can know about it. People are chatting so much anyway.

I am going already.

And? How did it go? The stone is real.

But he only offers 45,000. - Not anymore?

We did not come to an agreement. -I want your opinion too.

To lose 5000 francs. We are too poor for that.

Unfortunately. I already have the money here. - We find another buyer.

He will ask himself something. Such a diamond does not fall from heaven.

Maybe he warns the police. But as you wish ....

Go ahead, give him that ring. Then it was not for nothing.

Here is your money.

Eat with us! - No, I'm in a hurry.

Monsieur, do us that fun! Yes please.

No, I have to go back.

Then wait until the thunderstorm is over. - It can last all night.

Then stay here overnight. - No, I still have things to do.

Then we will not stop you. Thanks. Good night. What is it dark!

Are you going along the canal! Keep to the right.

Why did you let him go? He has so much money!

I also wanted to include that 5,000. -Shut up.

You thought the same as me. But you are a coward.

Give me the money -No it is mine!

I? - You let him go away!

45,000 francs is a lot of money. -You are never satisfied.

Monsieur de Bondieu, You are back again!

We felt sorry for you in that thunderstorm. - That was no fun either.

Here it is more pleasant. - Certainly.

Caderousse, open a bottle on the return of Monsieur.

The thunderstorm is over .. No, it really starts now.

It is not that I'm afraid of it thieves, but still ....

Oh, listen once ....

Soon you will be in a warm bed. - Do not bother.

No trouble for a friend.How late do you want to get up? I'm up early

First a hearty supper

Thieves! Murderers!

Excuse me, you are the daughter of the shipping company Morel? - Yes.

Do you want to give this to your father?

On behalf of whom?

My name is not important. -But...

Do not ask me, you will understand it later.

Tomorrow 10 o'clock. You must be present at the public sale of your possessions.

I know that's painful. But maybe you want to bid.

I have no money. That's why it came that far.

Yes that is true.

Father!

Father! We are saved. - Saved?

Here! Open it!

I had to give you this. All debts are in it!

Paid off. Who gave you this?

Monsieur Morel!

What is it? - The harbor master sends me.

A ship with your flag with the name "Pharaoh" arrives.

Monsieur Morel? - Yes.

Why does that ship carry my flag? - It's your property. The papers are in my cabin.

Where are you from? - From Genoa, from the yard.

Who let that ship build? - A bank made the money.

But nobody knew the client.

Good day, Jacopo. You still long for your previous job?

Ah, no ... Always tobacco! I am happy with that change.

You are now the representative of the Count of Monte-Cristo.

This charter makes me an Earl.

Count ... Please do not call me that!

Get in, I'll explain everything to you.

I pay 200 Louis d'or if we go before Tuesday to be in Paris!

I'll tell you why me so fast to Paris ....

END PART 1
