What is the main point of Hamlet's soliloquy Now is the very witching time of night...?
No, it's not to tell us that he's a vampire, even though he says he could drink hot blood. Mostly it's to tell us what he has in mind for his upcoming visit to his mother--he's going to talk mean to her but not going to hurt her physically. At the beginning he expresses his bloodthirsty (figuratively, not literally) mood but he is less bloodthirsty as the soliloquy progresses.

Educating Rita-how does rita develop a relationship with Frank?
Frank brings up Mary Shellys 'Frankenstein' in conversation, which is interesting as the story has some relevance in what has happened within the play. Frankenstein's 'monster' starts out as innocent and uneducated as a child, but escapes and experiences the world, further educating himself until he becomes as proficient in the spoken word and cognitive thinking as Frankenstein himself. In a way this has happened with franks 'creation', Rita. She began innocent, and with frank guiding the first part of the journey transformed herself into and educated person in the middle class. However by doing this she distances herself from her initial 'creator'. This also bears relevance to Frankenstein, as Frankensteins monster grows to hate his creator for all the misery he has been placed through in the educating process.

In The Merchant of Venice Does portia offer to pay anything for antonios debt?
She does indeed. She says to Bassanio when she hears about Antonio's predicament, "Pay him six thousand, and deface the bond. Double six thousand, and then treble that, before a friend of this description should lose a hair through Bassanio's fault." She's offering to pay 36,000 ducats on a 3000 ducat debt; that's 1100% interest! When Bassanio offers in court to pay he says (this is Portia's money he is offering, remember) "Yea, twice the sum. If that will not suffice, I will be bound to pay it ten times o'er . . . If this will not suffice, it must appear that malice bears down truth."
