1. What is the relationship between Macbeth and his wife? Explain.

The relationship between Macbeth and his wife was that they had a very strong relationship, and were very loyal to each other.  They had this bond were they can tell each other, the two of them were like partners in crime always together forever.

"Leave the rest to me. Ill ride ahead and delight my wife with the news of your coming. I humbly take my leave."

"My dearest love Duncan comes here tonight."

2.  What does Macbeth ultimately decide to murder Duncan?

He decided to murder Duncan because they didn't want a challenge and he wants to be king.

"When they are drunk and sleeping like pigs, what cant we do to the unguarded Duncan."

"ill ply his two officers with so much drink their memories will be fogged and their brains addled."

3.  Explain Macbeth's character thus far in the story.

Macbeth's character in the story is very mysterious because you see him as a very nice and humble personality but on the inside he's a cruel person, like how he was attempting to kill and murder Duncan.

"If fate says ill be king, well, fate may crown me, without my help."

"if we could get away with the deed after its done, then the quicker it were done, the better."

4.  Do you think he will get away with murder? Provide reasoning.

Well i think that macbeth would be able to get away with murder because of how he set the whole thing up.  I thought it was clever to make it like it was the guards fault, And plus i think he would get away with murder because he has many connections and nobody will suspect that its him.

"they will get the blame for the murder."

"who would dare to take it otherwise since we shall grieve and lament his death so loudly?"

5. What do you think macbeth should do?

I think that macbeth shouldn't murder king duncan because he his cousin and he did nothing wrong to harm him and his family, and was always so kind to them.

"this castle is pleasantly situated. the sweet and clear air appeals to me."
