So, monsieur Zatarra, you were a friend of Edmond? Monsieur Morell? Yes? You knew......

Morell: So, monsieur Zatarra, you were a friend of Edmond? Edmond: Monsieur Morell? Morell: Yes? [Edmond brushes his hair out of his face; after a moment, he sees Morell doesn't recognize him] Edmond: You knew... Edmond, also? Morell: Like a son. Edmond: I was hoping you could tell me where to find his family. Morell: Unfortunately, his father hanged himself after learning of Edmond's treason. Edmond: I see. And... this... treason you speak of... who accused him? Morell: Who knows? Monsieur Villefort, the man who had Edmond arrested, left for Paris soon after to take up the post of Chief Prosecutor. Of course, the shock of his father's violent murder may also have spurred his departure. They were strange times. Edmond: You seem to have fallen on difficult times yourself, sir. Morell: After Edmond's death, I reluctantly took on a partner. One of my captains. And then one day, Danglars forced me out. My fate is nothing compared to Edmond's. Edmond: Perhaps your luck is about to change.
