Signor Montoni Timeline and Summary

  • Montoni makes his move on Madame Cheron (or the opposite way around) soon after Em arrives at Tholouse.
  • The two lovebirds have a super-speedy engagement and wedding before anyone else knows what's up.
  • Montoni decides to move his new wife and Em to Italy. Muahahaha.
  • Man, does Montoni have some sketchy friends. He decides to marry Em off to Morano, and then breaks it off when he moves the whole family to Udolpho.
  • The M-man duels with Morano when the latter tries to kidnap Em from the castle. Montoni wins fair and square but gets a pretty nasty injury on his arm.
  • Em's not totally sure, but she gets the sense that Montoni's some sort of outlaw. Turns out she's right: he's part of the Condittieri, a group of Italian mercenaries.
  • Montoni's putting the pressure on his wife to make her give up her properties. She refuses, so he sends her to the east turret to reconsider.
  • When Madame Cheron dies, Montoni tries to get Em to sign away her rights to his late wife's properties. She refuses at first, but he proves to be very convincing.
  • Montoni sends Em away to Tuscany while the castle is under siege. He's got to protect his interests.
  • After Em escapes from Udolpho, everything goes downhill for Montoni. The government infiltrates Udolpho and takes him prisoner.
  • Soon after, Montoni dies mysteriously. No one knows exactly why, but rumors say that poison was involved.
