Choleti's wife Carlotta is a spoiled woman with a bad personality and terrible voice; The Phantom takes an instant dislike to them both.

Christine has no home or money, but Jean-Claude, the doorman, lets her stay in a storage room in the Opera House.Christine wanders onto the stage and sings to the empty theater. The Phantom is entranced by her voice. Hiding in the orchestra pit, he tells her that her voice is miraculous but untrained, and with proper technique her singing could reach its full potential. He offers to be her teacher, but must remain anonymous; that is why he wears a mask. They begin lessons, and the Phantom falls deeper in love with her.In retaliation for Carlotta's singing the lead in every production, Erik begins a campaign of humiliation against her, sabotaging her performances and causing Carlotta to become a laughingstock.

As Christine sleeps, Erik builds traps for anyone who comes down below. Carriere pleads with him to let Christine go, but Erik refuses.
