3. It adds humor and it makes readers easier to understand what shakespeare is talking about 4. Bid her devise some means to come to shrift this afternoon, and there she shall at Friar Lawrence' cell. Be shrived and married. I think this quote was important because this tells us that Romeo and Juliet are going to get married in Friar Lawrence's cell which means it's going to be a private marriage.

5. Why would nurse be okay with this whole marriage thing? Why would the nurse actually play roles in Romeo and Juliet's marriage stage? How many days passed after Romeo and Juliet first met till they were getting married?

Summary for 4.3~4.5

Juliet got the potion that will make her "temporarily dead" by Friar Lawrence. She had conflicts of thinking what if the potion is poison or not. At last, she just decided to drink it and she fell a sleep. Next day Capulet and the Nurse tried to wake her up but thought she was dead. They were all sad and decided to make the marriage into a funeral for Juliet. Friar Lawrence said Juliet is in heaven's hand now so he told Capulets to let her go.

Sumary for 5.1~5.2

Romeo gets the news that Juliet is dead. One problem is that he doesn't get the news that Juliet is not actually dead. So Romeo buys a strong poison that will kill him instantly with the gold. In Friar Lawrence's case, he receives the message that Romeo didn't get the letter that Friar lawrence was going to give him. So he panics and goes to Verona the same time as Romeo.
