Time:Wednesday Morning
Location:Mantua
Characters:Romeo, Balthasar, apothecary
Romeo has not recieved the letter that says that juliet is not dead and so when Balthasar talks to Romeo and says that juliet is dead he wants to go back to Verona even if he gets killed. Romeo than goes to the apothecary and asks for the poison and because the apothecary is so poor so he does the deal because he needs the money so Romeo is going to go to juliet grave and is going to drink the poison.
