Cassio has no head for liquor; it doesn't take much to get him drunk. He knows it and Iago knows it too. Nevertheless Iago is able to persuade him to drink more than he ought.

What does Cassio ask Bianca to do?

Cassio asks Bianca to make him a copy of the handkerchief that he had given her, which he wants to use to demonstrate his affection and commitment. He is unaware that the handkerchief is significant in the larger scheme of manipulation and deception surrounding the characters. Bianca, feeling jealous and confused about Cassio's relationship with another woman, is reluctant but agrees to help him. This request ultimately ties into the tragic misunderstandings that unfold in the story.

How does Iago plot to have cassio demoted in act 2?

Iago gets Cassio drunk. Cassio does not have a head for liquor and he knows it and he tells Iago he's had enough, but Iago makes himself extremely persuasive, using the same kind of arguments people still use to make people drink more than they should. "O! they are our friends; but one cup; I'll drink for you" and "What, man! "tis a night of revels; the gallants desire it." In other words, "Don't let our friends down, just have one more, it's a party! don't be a wet blanket." Iago knows, as Cassio does, that Cassio is at the point where he will start to get drunk and quarrelsome, and will start a fight with someone, when he's supposed to be on duty.
