:29:01
You ask God for help,
and I'll stop the moment he shows up.
:29:23
Monsieur Villefort,
have you not heard?
:29:25
- Napoleon has escaped from Elba!
- What?
:29:27
Landed 1 00 miles from here.
He marches on Paris!
:29:38
We are here to plead the case...
:29:40
- Of Edmond Dantes, Magistrate.
- Not now! Dantes?
:29:44
We have not met, monsieur.
:29:46
I am Fernand Mondego,
the son of Count Mondego.
:29:49
And I am here to swear
to Edmond Dantes's innocence.
:30:01
Edmond Dantes is charged
with high treason.
:30:04
- Yet you stand by him?
- Of course I do.
:30:10
What if I was to tell you that Dantes
is also charged with murder?
:30:14
- Murder?
- Edmond would never do such a thing.
:30:18
Dantes carried a letter from
Napoleon to one of his agents...
:30:20
and when we tried to arrest him,
he killed one of my men.
:30:22
No, if you knew him, monsieur,
you would know that was not possible.
:30:26
- Have mercy, please.
- You have proof of this treason?
:30:30
- Well, that is government business.
- Please.
:30:33
Please, just tell us where he is.
:30:35
I cannot, mademoiselle.
He was handed over to the king's men.
:30:39
I can understand your pain
at this betrayal.
:30:41
But my advice to all of you would be
to forget Edmond Dantes...
:30:46
particularly you,
mademoiselle.
:30:49
Take solace in the comfort
of your good friend here...
:30:52
and perhaps some good may yet
come of this unhappy affair.
:30:57
Now, you will excuse me.
I have to attend some other matters.
