Two servants of the Capulet household, Sampson and Gregory, see two servants from the Montague household, Abraham and Balthazar, on the streets of Verona. The Capulets bite their thumbs at the Montagues, which was the equivalent of giving the middle finger, and started a fight. Benvolio, Romeo's cousin and a Montague, sees it and tries to separate the servants, but Tybalt, Juliet's cousin and a Capulet, insists on fighting Benvolio. A large fight breaks out, the third between the two families, and Prince Escalus decrees that one more fight between the families in the streets will cause them to be put to death. Afterwards, Montague and Lady Montague worry about Romeo, who has been depressed and locking himself in his room. Benvolio talks to him and learns that Romeo is in love with Rosaline, but is upset because she does not know who she is, and because she has sworn to remain a virgin her whole life, and cannot be tempted by flirting. Benvolio tells Romeo to forget about her.
