The Miller steals corn and meal in the beginning and one night two of his students catch him stealing flour. The Miller finds out and sets their horses free so that he can escape. The boys spend all night chasing their horses and eventually give up. They need a place to stay for the night and beg the Miller to let them stay at his house. The Miller agrees and lets them in. At night, one of the boys (John) has sex with the Miller's daughter because him and Aleyn (the other student) believe they have a right to get recompense since the Miller had cheated them. Aleyn becomes jealous that John gets the girl, so he sleeps with the Miller's wife. The wife hits her husband thinking he is one of the boys and Aleyn and John finish beating up the Miller. They leave the house with the cake made from the stolen flour.
The dramatic irony in the Reeve's Tale lies in the fact that the miller, Symkyn, cheats his tenants and takes advantage of them, while he himself is ultimately outwitted and humiliated by the two students staying at the mill. The audience knows that the miller will get his comeuppance, but he remains oblivious to his impending downfall, creating tension and humor in the story.

Verbal, situational, and dramatic irony are all forms of irony that involve a contrast between what is expected and what actually occurs. Verbal irony is when a character says something but means the opposite, situational irony is when the outcome is different from what is anticipated, and dramatic irony is when the audience knows something that the characters do not. They each bring about surprise or humor by playing with expectations.
