## The true irony of The Count of Monte Cristo

You know what I love about The Count of Monte Cristo? How everyone gets exactly what they want. It’s like in any movie where someone gets 3 wishes, but everything goes wrong because they aren’t specific enough. Let me explain:

Danglars did what he did for the money and the position/title. Monte Cristo comes along and says “ya like money? Ya like titles? Well here’s a rich Italian prince. Now ya have exactly what you want.”

Mondego was after Mercedes, and decided that framing an innocent man for a crime would be the best way to achieve his goal. So Monte Cristo comes and says “Hey, I know you like pretty women. Well here’s the prettiest woman I know.” and introduces him to Haydée.

Villefort probably justifies what he did by telling himself that he wasn’t selfish, he was just protecting his career, but more importantly, his family. Monte Cristo arrives and says “It’s ok, I understand your motives. Since you love your family so much, I’ve brought along a family member of yours” and gives him Benedetto.

You can look at what happened with Caderousse this way too. His excuse was that he was just an innocent bystander. So Monte Cristo was an innocent bystander too, and silently watched Caderousse get stabbed to death.
