Act 3, Scene 3 -Romeo goes to Friar Lawrence for help. The Friar tells him that his banishment may not be permanent and that the two lovers may be united again. The Nurse enters to tell Romeo of Juliet's grief. Romeo threatens to kill himself and the Friar chastises him for ignoring "a pack of blessings." He is lucky to be banished instead of dead, his love Juliet is still alive and his enemy Tybalt, who planned to kill him, is dead and gone. He tells Romeo to go and comfort Juliet but to leave her by the break of day and flee to Mantua where he will find safety until a solution can be found.

Juliet rejects the idea and her father threatens to banish her if she does not obey his wishes. The Nurse suggests that she marry Paris and forget about Romeo.
