OH ALBERT. :( Please stop being an idiot and calm down and don't try to kill anyone. :( It's all true, anyway, and wouldn't it be better just to leave it alone?

In fairness to the case against Valentine, it would certainly behoove a cold-hearted poisoner to play the dutiful daughter as convincingly as possible. But since I am a reader of this book and not a character in it, I can see how obvious it is that Valentine would never poison anyone.

(I have no idea what Mme de Villefort's goal is here. Is she the poisoner? Or do all those significant looks really mean that she knows who the poisoner is?)

Only of course Valentine will be SAVED by the power of Morrel's love probably the Count's encyclopedic knowledge of poison and medicine, let's be realistic.

OR BOTH. Let's be ambitious!
