Romeo and Juliet Act 5 Scene's 1&2: Pg 211-219

Juliet's finely sculpted plan does not go exactly the way she wanted, because Romeo is informed of Juliet's "death" right away. Before he knows that it's a hoax, he doesn't believe it so he goes out and buys poison that will kill him instantly if it is true. He wants to die next to Juliet in the tomb.

Even though I know what's going to happen, it is clear that this is a pretty confusing situation. There is an enormous lack of communication between all of the characters, especially the two lovers. This can only end badly. I decided to leave the very last scene to read tonight.
