Line 14:
Act II can be readily summarized: Florestan, in his dirty dank dungeon, laments how his righteousness and honesty has been thus rewarded. Rocco and Fidelio finds him more dead than alive. Fidelio recognises him, and offers him as much comfort as she can without blowing her cover. When the grave is ready, Rocco signals Pizarro. Pizarro, not being [[Genre Savvy]], [[Evil Gloating|gloats]] over Florestan. Fidelio reveals her true identity — "Kill me first; I am his wife." — and points a pistol at Pizarro. At that moment, a trumpet announces the arrival of Don Fernando, the righteous minister of the King. Pizarro is arrested, and all his prisoners are set free. Cue [[Crowning Music of Awesome|Choral Music of Awesome]] as the crowd cheers for the brave, faithful woman who saves her husband.

* [[Character Filibuster]] -- Don Fernando: ''I detest grim tyranny. I see every man as my brother''. He does not have much stage time, to be sure, but is distracting in his blatantness.
* [[Counterpoint Duet|Counterpoint Song]] -- the "Canonic" quartet.
