The Count of Monte Cristo Episode 7 (PBS)
In The Count of Monte Cristo Episode 7, the carefully constructed revenge plan Edmond Dantès has been building all season finally starts detonating in public. Long-buried secrets come to light, alliances crumble, and the men who helped destroy Edmond’s life are forced to face consequences they never saw coming. But as identities are revealed and emotions take over, the revenge starts to feel far messier – and far more personal – than before. We’re breaking down the major reveals, the fallout for Fernand, Mercedes, and Albert, and the moment that made us realize Edmond may no longer care who knows exactly who he is
