Act 3 Scene 3 :)
Lady Macbeth is going to make sure his grooms (who sleep in the same room) have passed out, then Macbeth will go in to his bedroom and stab him with the grooms' daggers.
In Act 3 Scene 3, Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] plotted the death of fellow General and friend Banquo with two murderers. In Scene 3, Banquo's murder took place in the park near the royal palace at Forres. In Scene 4, the murderers showed up at the palace to give Macbeth some good news and some bad news. The good news was the successful, fatal slitting of Banquo's throat. The bad news was the escape of Fleance, Banquo's son. Banquo had been invited to the banquet in the aftermath of Macbeth's royal coronation at Scone. He didn't make good on the invite. But his ghost did. In fact, Banquo's ghost succeeded in unsettling Macbeth by taking the royal seat.
In Act 2 Scene 3 the Porter says "knock" 10 times.
There are two murderers in act 3 scene 3 in Macbeth.
The two murderers are surprised by the appearance of Banquo's ghost at the banquet in Act 3, Scene 4. They cannot see the ghost themselves, but Macbeth's intense reaction to its presence startles them.
Macbeth only hired 2 murderers to attack Banquo and his son, but there ended up being 3 murderers.
There is no concrete evidence in the play to suggest that the third murderer is Macbeth. The presence of the third murderer serves to show the extent of Macbeth's paranoia and how easily he manipulates others to do his bidding. It adds to the atmosphere of deceit and betrayal in the play.
At the ambush in Act 3, Scene 3 of Macbeth, a group of hired murderers attacks Banquo and his son, Fleance. Banquo is killed, but Fleance manages to escape. This ambush is orchestrated by Macbeth, who fears Banquo's descendants as potential threats to his reign, as prophesied by the witches.

No, Banquo didn't die in Act 5 of the Shakespearean play. Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] planned Banquo's death, in Act 3 Scene 1. The murderous plan was carried out in Scene 3. Three murderers waylaid Banquo on his way back to Macbeth's post-coronation banquet. They left him, with his throat slit, in the park near the royal palace at Forres.
3 witches 3 murders 3 prophecies at a time 3 murderers
3 witches foretold the future for MacBeth.
Macbeth has to convince the murderers that Banquo is evil and needs to be killed so he says that the recent famine going on at that time is Banquo's fault. The murderers are only poor men who are trying to feed their family so they believe Macbeth, and eventually kill Banquo, though Banquo's son, Fleance, escapes.
Macbeth [d. August 15, 1057] didn't request Banquo's presence anywhere after talking to the three witches. He spoke to the witches in Act 4 Scene 1. Banquo already was dead at that time. The three murderers had killed him in Act 3 Scene 3. Instead, Macbeth requested Banquo's presence at a banquet after the murder of King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] and Macbeth's coronation the next day at Scone. This request was well after the first meeting of Banquo and Macbeth with the three witches.
In Act 3, Scene 1 of Macbeth, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth exhibit a mixture of apprehension, ambition, and a growing sense of paranoia. Macbeth is increasingly consumed by his guilt and fear of losing power, while Lady Macbeth struggles to maintain control over their destiny despite their mounting troubles.
