By juxtaposing Madame Danglars’ hapless pleadings for help (not to mention those of Andrea) against Eugénie’s decisive actions, is Dumas subtly praising Eugénie?
How do you interpret the seeming paradox between the title of this chapter, which suggests the ideal of emotionless impersonality that Villefort deems necessary for his role, and Villefort’s self-pitying rant about how society has treated him?
On a scale of one to delicious, how do you rate the irony of Villefort and Madame Danglars’ ignorance of Andrea’s origins?
Final sentence of chapter:
“‘And here it is: it will be a fine session.’”
