When Juliet asked what news of romeo, the nurse thought of all excuses to avoid answering the question ( e.g backpain, where her mother?...) but when Juliet loses her temper the nurse finally tells her the news.
well. the nurse told Juliet to "Hie to your chamber. I'll find Romeo to comfort you .i wot well where he is. Hark ye , your Romeo will be here at night. I'll to him: he is hid at Laurence cell.
Well, I presume you are talking about Act IV Scene 5 where the Nurse comes back from Romeo with the news that Romeo is arranging the wedding. The Nurse teases Juliet by postponing and delaying telling Juliet the news which she desperately wants to hear. But when she does tell, Juliet is very very happy.
I'm guessing you are asking about Act II Scene 5 and that you have never watched this scene played. Seriously, watch the scene as played by Miriam Margoyles as the Nurse and Claire Danes as Juliet, from the 1996 movie. The answer will become obvious. (It will be obvious if you watch the scene played by other actresses but Margoyles and Danes nail it.)
She stalls and says how she is tired and makes her wait when she knows she is anxiously waiting. She also asks where Juliet's mother is, which has nothing to do with anything.
"if you should deal double with her, truly it were an ill thing to be offered to any gentlewoman, and very weak dealing." Some threat.

Juliet does not tell her nurse about the potion, as the nurse advises Juliet in a previous scene (act 3, scene 5) to forget Romeo and marry Paris. Juliet takes this as betrayal and swears never to trust the nurse again. Which is why, when the friar gives Juliet the potion, Juliet does NOT tell the nurse. Okay. That's it.
At the beginning of Act IV Scene 3, Juliet tells the nurse that she wants to be left alone to pray.
In Act II Scene V the nurse returns from her interview with Romeo and Juliet is desperate to find out what Romeo has to say about whether they can be married. The Nurse teases her by not revealing the good news right away.
We don't actually see this happen. What we see is Juliet promising to send a messenger to Romeo the next day at nine, then Romeo talks to the friar, then Romeo and the Nurse show up in the marketplace. Juliet may be giving her instructions to the Nurse while Romeo is talking to Friar Lawrence in Act II Scene III; it certainly happens after scene 1 and before scene 3.
Depends, in the movie Romeo sees Juliet next to the nurse, her fiance and her mother. Like this, right away he figured out she was a Capulet. In the book, Romeo is told by the nurse that Juliet belongs to the Capulet Family.
Shakespeare includes humorous scenes with the Nurse in "Romeo and Juliet" to provide comic relief amidst the tragedy and tension in the play. The Nurse's character adds depth and lightness to the story, offering a contrast to the more serious aspects of the plot. Her interactions with other characters also help to develop their personalities and relationships.
The nurse's dialogue in act 1 scene iii reveals her as talkative, humorous, and affectionate towards Juliet. She has a bawdy sense of humor and often speaks in a colloquial and direct manner, showing her warmth and closeness to Juliet. She is also portrayed as a loyal and caring figure in Juliet's life.

The humorous aspect of the scene when the nurse returns is her misunderstanding and mistaken identity with the old man as Romeo. This confusion leads to comical moments as she speaks to who she believes is Romeo but is actually a different character in the play.

The scene is set in the Capulet residence, where Juliet awaits the return of the nurse.
Act 2, Scene 4
Juliet sends her Nurse to find out if she is to be married to Romeo.
At the end of scence 2, the nurse asks Juliet asks the nurse to go give him a ring and tell him good-bye.
Juliet is mad at the nurse in Act 3, Scene 5 of "Romeo and Juliet" because the nurse advises her to forget about Romeo and instead marry Paris. This conflicts with Juliet's feelings for Romeo and her desire to be with him. Juliet feels betrayed by the nurse's advice and feels alone in her struggle to be with Romeo.
It is Juliet's nurse who interrupts Juliet's and Romeo's conversation on the balcony. She calls Juliet back inside, urging her to come back to her room.
