True, but there are usually several dumb moments in many modern films
shareHe's giving her a SAW-like negative option.
Marry me and kill your lover, or reject me and everybody dies.
No matter what option she chooses, somebody dies.
"If you don't know the answer -change the question."
From her point of view, it might be preferable for them all to die quickly in an explosion than to spend the rest of her life in an Elisabeth Fritzl-style existence shut up under the Opera with her kidnapper ~~Igenlode, who thinks Christine gets a bad press Gather round, lads and lasses, gather round...
shareTrue. Although in the book she had no way of knowing that the scorpion was going to kill Raoul, only that it would drown the gunpowder and sentence her -in her pov- to a possible rape followed by death. At least blowing everyone up skipped the first part.
So no wonder she thought about just killing them all and having done with it, the girl was already suicidal from months of walking on eggshells to appease this crazy guy she felt sorry for who literally forbade her to fall in love with anyone else but him, if she didn't want a murder on her conscience. In the book, she was tied up when they got there because she'd tried to kill herself ahead of Erik's schedule.
