Who does Lennox believe murdered Banquo?

Macbeth. He implies this in his curiously diplomatic and indirect speech in Act 3 Scene 6. "And the right-valiant Banquo walked too late, whom you may say, if't please you, Fleance kill'd. Men must not walk too late." He's saying "You might think that Fleance killed Banquo, but if you think about it, it wasn't convenient for Fleance at all but it sure was for Macbeth. So you might think Fleance is a murderer, but if he was under Macbeth's protection I have a pretty good idea who would end up dead."


What is the conclusion from Macbeth?

Two parts of Macbeth's plan aren't carried out. Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] plans to have Banquo and Banquo's son Fleance killed by three hired murderers. But only Banquo ends up with his throat slit. Fleance manages to escape, and isn't tracked down. Macbeth also plans to kill Macduff and Macduff's entire family and household. But Macduff escapes to England before he can be killed. So only Macduff's family and household are killed by Macbeth's hired murderers. Consequently, Macbeth's plan for elimination of his rivals isn't carried out or completed. Instead, he must beware of Macduff. He also must beware of Banquo's family line taking over the throne of Scotland.


Why has Macbeth gone to see the weird sisters again?

It is because he wants more specific information on their predictions that Macbeth goes to see the witches a second time in "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare.Specifically, Macbeth (d. August 15, 1057) kills King Duncan and the two royal chamberlains. He hires murderers to kill Banquo and his son Fleance. But Fleance escapes.Macbeth therefore wants to find out what the witches will say about the permanence of his own rule, and what they will say about Banquo's line taking over the throne now that Banquo is dead. He is past the point of no return and wants specific details of the threats to his power and of the identity of his successors.In short, Macbeth wants to know how many more heinous plans he needs to put into effect (Act 3 Scene 4 Lines 134-138).


Whom did Macbeth say must suffer the same fate as Banquo?

According to the Shakespearean play, Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] wanted friend and fellow General Banquo dead. Macbeth had killed King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] and become King of Scotland. But the witches had predicted that Banquo would be the father of kings. And so Macbeth wanted to get rid of the competition to the Scottish throne. He hired three murderers to kill Banquo. He also told them to make sure that Banquo's son Fleance suffered the same bloodied, grisly fate.


What does Macbeth say to macduff about his mortality?

Macbeth "... I bear a charmed life, which must not yield/ To one of woman born." Macbeth says that the witches foretold that he would not die at the hand of anyone who was women born.

Who is the disloyal thane killed by Macbeth?

Macdonweald. Macbeth split him from the nave to the chaps. Don't say the Thane of Cawdor; the text does not say he was captured by Macbeth and it wouldn't make any sense to say he did.
