The two parts are: one, he has to get away with it and two, he has to make sure the person who did the wrong in the first place knows he is paying for that wrong. This is how Montresor puts it in the first paragraph of the story:

"I must not only punish, but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong."
