Morcef is found guilty of treason after Dantes brings an unexpected witness to testify before the floor of the National Assembly.

Dantes then confronts the attorney with the horrific news that he will have to prosecute his son for murder. All Danglars' investments collapse, and the banker flees to Paris a penniless man, fearing for his life.
