  • Banquo and his son, Fleance, are at Macbeth's inner court at Glamis. They're both feeling a little twitchy.
  • Macbeth then enters with a servant, and Banquo notes that the new Thane of Cawdor (Macbeth) should be resting peacefully considering the good news he got today.
  • They reminisce about those wacky witches they met the other day, and then everyone leaves Macbeth alone on stage.
  • Just in time, too, because things are about to get read: Macbeth has a vision of a dagger that points him toward the room where Duncan sleeps. The dagger turns bloody and Macbeth says the bloody image is a natural result of his bloody thoughts.
  • A bell rings, which is Lady Macbeth's signal that it's time to rock and roll.

She would have killed him herself, but he looked to much like her father. Macbeth comes out of Duncan's room with bloody hands and a story of people screaming murder. Macbeth couldn't finish his prayers with amen because of his guilt.Lady Macbeth makes it look like the guards killed Duncan. Macbeth says he can never clean his hands of this guilt, while Lady Macbeth instantly got rid of it. Someone knocks on the door, and the Macbeth's freak out.]]> 2017-02-17 16:55:12 UTC https://padlet.com/robyn_miller/Miller_Macbeth_SUE/wish/154638903 Scene 2 arsistkrow https://padlet.com/robyn_miller/Miller_Macbeth_SUE/wish/154639311 Having drugged the guards of Duncan's chamber, Lady Macbeth now meets her husband in the lower courtyard as he emerges from the king's room itself. Macbeth's conscience is clearly disturbed by what he has done, and once more his wife criticizes his lack of firmness. The success of their plot is also in jeopardy because Macbeth has brought the daggers with him. Lady Macbeth returns to the scene of the murder in order to place the daggers and to smear the king's sleeping servants with blood, a deed that presents her with none of the horror that now affects Macbeth. As the scene closes, we hear, with the Macbeths, a loud and persistent knocking at the door.

  • Ross chats with a conveniently placed wise old man, who is disturbed by the night's strange events —both the King's murder and the weird things going on in nature.
  • Ross says the heavens are clearly troubled by the unnatural regicide: even though it's the middle of the day, it's completely dark outside; an owl murder a hawk; Duncan's horses ate each other. Okay, that seriously sounds like something out of The Exorcist.
  • Macduff, yet another Scottish nobleman, shows up to exposit a little for us: he says the dead guards "were bribed" to murder the king (wrong); that Malcolm and Donalbain look pretty suspicious, having left town so quickly and all (can't argue with that, even though we know better); that Macbeth is on his way to Scone to be crowned King; and that Duncan is being put in a freshly dug grave.

Macbeth acts like hes going to see what happened and kills the guards to cover up that he murdered the king and says he killed them out of emotional rage. ]]> 2017-02-17 16:57:22 UTC https://padlet.com/robyn_miller/Miller_Macbeth_SUE/wish/154639655 Scene 3 cranechase99 https://padlet.com/robyn_miller/Miller_Macbeth_SUE/wish/154640082 The Porter comes in as comic relief. He is slightly drunk, and relates his job to the gatekeeper of Hell. Macduff enters the castle, Macbeth tells him the King is asleep, he then finds him dead.

Instead, he plays a game with himself in which he imagines himself as the porter of hell and jokes about the kind of sinners he might let in. Eventually, however, he opens the door to Lennox and Macduff, who have been commanded to call upon the king to arrange the royal departure. It is early morning, and most of those in the castle are still asleep. One who is not is Macbeth, and he directs Macduff to the king's chamber. Only a moment passes before the news breaks: King Duncan has been murdered.

    On hearing the terrible revelation, the Macbeths' acts are beyond suspicion, but Macbeth admits to having killed the guards of the King's chamber — not part of the original plan — and Lady Macbeth faints. The assembled thanes of Scotland resolve to avenge the act of treason. Duncan's sons, Malcolm and Donalbain, thinking themselves open to the charge of murdering their father, plan to flee to England and Ireland.
