She's pretty upset. Unfortunately, the way the nurse told it, Juliet's first thought was that it was Romeo that had been killed, so when the Nurse says that Tybalt is dead, Juliet is a bit confused and perhaps slightly relieved. Were both of them dead? Then she finds out that it was Romeo that killed Tybalt, and for a moment she is very angry with Romeo. But in a moment she realizes that it is wrong to be angry with Romeo and she is much more unhappy with the news that Romeo has been banished.

How do the Capulets react to Juliets death?

Her reaction is complicated by the fact that the nurse doesn't tell the story very well and at first Juliet thinks it was Romeo that was killed. When she gets that straight she is mad at Romeo and then she realizes that this is not being very wifely. If is only at this point she realizes the consequences of banishment. It is a complex series of reactions best understood by reading the scene or watching it.

Who first discovers Juliets death?

The First Watchman is the first to discover Juliet's real death at the end of the play in Act V, Scene3: "Pitiful sight! here lies the county slain, And Juliet bleeding, warm, and newly dead, Who here hath lain these two days buried." The nurse, however, is the first to discover Juliet in her death-like sleep in Act IV, Scene 5: "I must needs wake you; Lady! lady! lady! Alas, alas! Help, help! my lady's dead! O, well-a-day, that ever I was born! Some aqua vitae, ho! My lord! my lady!"


Why is Tybalts death bad for Romeo and Juliet?

For two reasons: first because it results in Romeo getting banished and thus keeping the lovers apart. And second, because Tybalt was the son of Lady Capulet's brother, which means that she is insanely vengeful towards Romeo. The plan was, that once Romeo and Juliet's marriage is consummated (and so cannot be annulled), they would present it to the parents as a fait accompli. But after Tybalt's death, the chances of Lady C accepting her daughter's marriage to Romeo are pretty remote. Already in the play she is plotting his death. It would be clear to the Capulets that the solution to this distasteful marriage would be to make Juliet a widow as soon as possible.
