briefly state the friar's plan?
Juliet comes to the Friar for his help in putting a stop to the wedding. She is desperate, and as soon as she is alone with the Friar she cries out, "O shut the door! and when thou hast done so, / Come weep with me; past hope, past cure, past help!" (4.1.44-45). Juliet says she will kill herself rather than marry Paris, which gives the Friar the inspiration for his plan for her to take the sleeping potion. He reasons that if she has enough courage to kill herself she has enough courage to take the drug which will make her appear dead for 42 hours. The Friar then proceeds to formulate all the details of his plan, and Juliet agrees to it.
He sends a friend and fellow friar, Friar John, with a letter.
He sends Friar John as a messenger.
He is supposed to hear it from Balthazar, but Friar Lawrence doesn't tell Balthazar, but sends the message with Friar John instead. As a result, Romeo never learns of Friar Lawrence's plan.
Friar Lawrence's important message to Romeo goes astray primarily due to communication breakdowns and unforeseen circumstances. The failure of Friar John to deliver the message in time to Romeo about the plan to fake Juliet's death ultimately leads to tragic consequences. Additionally, Romeo's impulsive behavior and emotional reactions also contribute to the miscommunication.
The timing of Friar Laurence's plan was affected by Lord Capulet's decision to move the date of the wedding.
The Friar's plan is to hide Juliet in the Capulet family tomb, where Romeo will later come to retrieve her once she awakens from the potion-induced sleep.
Balthasar ruins the friar's plan by beating Friar John to delivering the message of Juliet's fake death. By telling Romeo before the Friar it caused Romeo to believe Juliet was actually dead.
Friar Laurence asks Friar John to deliver a letter to Romeo explaining the plan to fake Juliet's death.
because his male servant comes by horse, faster than the friar's donkey, and tells him Juliet is dead, so he never reads the letter infoming him of the plan to fake Juliet's death
The plan is that his brother Friar, Friar John, will take a letter to Romeo. But Friar John is prevented from giving him the message.
