Act 4 Scenes 4-5 : That's Just What She Wants You to Think

PROMPT B
In Act 4 Scene 5, the Nurse, Lady Capulet, and Lord Capulet are completely distraught when they discover Juliet "dead." They had all upset Juliet before her "death" and did not make amends for their misbehavior towards her. This reminds me of when people have arguments with one another and do not solve their disagreement within that same day. I hate going to sleep with unfinished business because I feel that when you don't sort out a fight and end up going to sleep with negative thoughts, the feelings tend to become stronger and the fight becomes more meaningful. Not to mention that basically anything can happen within the time that the issue is left unresolved. I imagine that Juliet's family would be feeling very guilty and immense discomfort of the fact that Juliet may not have known how much they really love her. 

PROMPT E
I chose this image of the different phases of the moon in the night sky. I think it is a good symbolic representation of the scene as a whole because it shows how although you can't always see every part of the moon, it's always there. Juliet acts like the moon because she only reveals the pieces of herself that others are supposed to see or that she wants them to see.
