In "The Count of Monte Cristo," Dantes shows the theme of revenge when he is wrongfully imprisoned and then seeks justice for the people who betrayed him. For example, when he escapes from prison, he starts to plan how he will get back at those who hurt him. His journey from a kind sailor to someone who seeks revenge shows how tough experiences can change a person and really makes us think about what the right thing to do is.
