Best Answer

There were two marriages planned for Juliet: one by Romeo and another by her father. In Act 2 she hears from the Nurse the plans Romeo has made for them to be married and she is ecstatic. When she hears later that her father has planned to marry her to Paris, she is horrified and has to refuse, although she tries to grovel and be as humble as possible while doing it. This doesn't fool her father a bit; he knows disobedience when he sees it.
