What is the importance of juliet's speech in act 4 scene 1 lines 50-67?

In this speech Juliet tells the Friar that she would rather stab herself than go through the bigamous marriage with Paris, and that unless the Friar had some suggestion of how she could avoid it right there and then, she would kill herself. Of course this puts the friar on the spot to come up with a solution. You might think that his plan sounds crazy, and that it would perhaps have been simpler to just have Juliet disguise herself as a nun and head off to Mantua, but he was under a lot of pressure and that was the best he could think of at the time.
