Noirtier Disappears in Plain Sight (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 12 – Part 5)

As the royalist police close in, Noirtier casually evades capture right before Villefort’s eyes. In this masterful scene, we watch political survival in motion—disguises, quick thinking, and generational tension collide. Villefort’s father reveals just how easily the machinery of power can be sidestepped with a change of coat and a swipe of the razor.
