“The Cross Plan” (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 16 – Part 9)
from The Countdown of Monte Cristo · host Grunt Work Podcasts
With new clarity, Dantès devises a bold revision to the escape plan: cut across the existing tunnel, bore into the outer gallery, kill the sentinel, and flee. Simple, brutal, and focused. But Abbé Faria hesitates—not out of fear, but out of faith. Their definitions of courage diverge. For Dantès, escape is duty. For Faria, it must also be righteousness.
