Danglars decides that he doesn't want Eugenie to marry Albert because he's set his sights on Andrea Cavalcanti. He notes that Fernand is not a true count, and thus, he prefers the Prince. Ironically, Cavalcanti is not a true Prince.... he is merely a thief, hired by the Count to play a part.... he does his job well.
