The correct answer is the last ("<span>Fortunato wants to continue their descent into the vaults for the Amontillado."). This is correct because the narrator has tempted Fortunato into retrieving the bottle of alcohol (which didn't really exist) so that Fortunato could be locked away, never to be seen again. 

Hope this helps!
