"The first scene" is presumably Act III Scene 1 of the Taming of the Shrew, wherein Lucentio and Hortensio have gained access to Bianca (who is otherwise inaccessible to wooers until Kate is married) by pretending to be Latin and Music teachers respectively. They disguise their messages of love as lessons. Lucentio pretends to be translating a passage from Latin, but instead of the translation, he tells Bianca who he is and that he means to marry her. Hortensio does the same thing, disguising it as a lesson about the notes of the musical scale.

What plan do hortensio and gremio come up with?

In Act I Scene 2 of the Taming of the Shrew, both Hortensio and Gremio come up with plans to help either of them get the hand of Bianca. Hortensio sees in Petruchio the kind of man who might actually marry Katharina and clear the way for all of Bianca's suitors. He suggests this and Petruchio agrees enthusiastically before Gremio is even on the scene. When he does show up, he tells Hortensio that he has developed his own plan of installing the scholar Cambio (actually Lucentio in disguise) to pass Gremio's love-notes on to Bianca. Hortensio replies enthusiastically and says that he will install a music teacher for the same purpose. He doesn't tell Gremio that he will disguise himself as the music teacher.


What is act 5 scene 2 about in taming of the shrew?

It's the last scene in the play; Bianca's wedding, at which Petruchio bets that Kate is better behaved than either Bianca or Hortensio's new wife. And so it proves to be; at Petruchio's behest, she comes from other room, then she goes and fetches Bianca and Hortensio's wife and brings them also, and finishes it off with a speech in which she praises the virtue of obedience in wives (a speech which tends to grate on modern ears if delivered straight.)
