  1. All right, So this video will cover chapters 61 through
  2. 63. I called it panic and escape on canvas.
  3. Um, so Chapter 61 is where we see, um, the
  4. count of Monte Cristo.
  5. Go to do anglers House and take out all of
  6. the money he had, um, gotten a credit with the
  7. anglers for.
  8. So, um, he basically what what needed to happen was
  9. dangler is needed to give him a check for five
  10. million francs, and he would go and cash that check.
  11. Um And so, um, dangler is is they're talking about
  12. how he had written this check to the hospitals, and
  13. the cow is like, Oh, I can't get the same
  14. amount. Can I just take this?
  15. And Dangler is not wanting to, um, you know, look,
  16. um, suspicious or look, um, like he didn't have it.
  17. He was like, Sure, I'll just write a new check
  18. to the hospitals, right?
  19. Like he lets him take the money.
  20. Um, and, um, it's clear that the count knows what
  21. he's doing.
  22. They have some, like, little like the count makes you
  23. know, certain gestures, like he's, you know, um, indicating that
  24. to the reader.
  25. At least maybe not today.
  26. Anglers, but to the reader that he knows that he's
  27. taking sort of the last of his money.
  28. Um, and he gives him a receipt for six million
  29. francs. That, of course, the count.
  30. Our anglers can go to Rome and cash out for,
  31. um, the six million, the six million francs, But that
  32. that, you know, it takes time.
  33. And so, um uh, but Dangler doesn't want the count
  34. to know that he only has the five million.
  35. Um, he doesn't have more.
  36. He doesn't have enough for the hospital as well.
  37. So the count leaves, um, with his, um, five million
  38. francs and the hospital.
  39. Um you know, President, um, is coming in to get
  40. his five million francs as well.
  41. And, um, Dangler is like, I'm so sorry.
  42. Um, you know, the count just walked out with your
  43. five million francs.
  44. I'll have to I'll have it for you tomorrow.
  45. Like I have to write a new check and everything.
  46. He kind of makes an excuse.
  47. Um, and the president of the hospital is like, um
  48. so we need it tomorrow.
  49. Or like our books are being examined tomorrow.
  50. Our accounts are being examined tomorrow.
  51. We We need that money, Um, and anglers is like,
  52. What time are they coming?
  53. And I'll have it for you in the morning.
  54. No problem.
  55. Don't worry about it.
  56. Um, and so the the guy from the hospital leaves,
  57. he's like, Okay, cool.
  58. Um, and leaves and dangler is is like, um Nope,
  59. I'm gonna run.
  60. And so he takes as much money as he has.
  61. Um, like, 50.
  62. I think it's like 50,000 francs or so, um gathers
  63. that money that he has burned some papers, right, trying
  64. to cover his tracks about what he has done in
  65. the fraud that he's been involved with and how he's,
  66. you know, gone broke.
  67. Um, and he writes a letter to Madame de Anglers,
  68. and we will see that that letter come up later.
  69. Um, it's also during this time that the Excuse me,
  70. the President hospital asks if um, dangler is going to
  71. go to the funeral for Valentine and Anglers is like,
  72. No, that whole Benedetto thing has made me look kind
  73. of foolish in town.
  74. So I'm trying to lay low, and he tells, um,
  75. the president of the hospital that you Jeannie has run
  76. away to join a convent.
  77. Um, and he told the count earlier that you Jeannie
  78. had gone on a visit with family because she was
  79. so embarrassed.
  80. And so he's just making up lies about how you
  81. Jeannie has left, um, to save his reputation and save
  82. face. Um, and that is the
