Montresor lures Fortunato by telling him he has obtained a pipe of Amontillado sherry. He mentions obtaining confirmation of the pipe's contents by inviting a fellow wine aficionado, Luchesi, for a private tasting. Not one to be made better of, Fortunato goes with Montresor to the wine cellars of the latter's house, where they wander in the catacombs. Montresor keeps giving Fortunato drinks to keep him drunk, finally arriving at a niche, where Montresor tells his friend that the Amontillado is within. Fortunato enters drunk and unsuspecting, allowing Montresor to chain him to the wall.
Montresor then proceeds to wall up the niche, entombing his friend alive. Fortunato sobers up faster than anticipated, though, and pleads with Montresor. Montresor ignores him and continues, eventually walling him in completely.
Notably though, in the story, Fortunato actually comes to the realization that this is actually what Montresor wants. Montresor doesn't want to murder Fortunato as much as he wants the psychological satisfaction of seeing and hearing him squirm as it dawns on him that he is going to die a slow death and he was so easily tricked into walking into this situation, and mocking him for it. In a final act of defiance, Fortunato refuses to play along at the end, and replaces his panic with cold silence. This silence catches Montresor off-balance, and its evident from narration that he was very confused and annoyed at being robbed of the chance to gloat properly, and even begins to feel "sick at heart" about what he is doing, because the sudden silence gives him no recourse but to actually consider the gravity of the act he is about to carry out. And even those fifty years later, there are still clear hints of Montresor being somewhat bitter about the fact Fortunato managed to outwit him at the end by taking all the fun out of his revenge.
Hope this helps :)

- <em>The history of manned space flight: </em>The topic is <u>appropriate</u> for research because it is specific and will find almost the same information in every source you consult.
- <em>Breeds of dogs in the Westminster Dog Show: </em>The topic is <u>too narrow</u> which might make the research a little empty (with not too much information).
- <em>The history of domestic animals (house pets): </em>The topic is <u>too broad </u>and the research might not be focused but too general.
- <em>The results of Project Genome: </em>The topic is <u>appropriate</u> for research because it is relevant and specific
- <em>The formation of cumulonimbus clouds: </em>The topic is <u>too narrow </u>and might make the research empty/flat and lacking in relevance
- <em>The results of the Battle of Gettysburg: </em>The topic is <u>appropriate</u> for research because it is historically relevant.
<u>EXTRA INFO: </u>
<em>When you start developing a specific topic, the main problem you may face is having a topic that is too narrow or too broad.</em>
Your topic is too narrow when you find very little information about it
Your topic is too broad when you find too many sources or too much information that it might not even be focused but too general.
And when your topic is appropriate it is when you find the important and needed information or you could also narrow a topic that is too broad.
Hope this answer helps you! Have a great day.
