- are they speaking the truth?

- what do they want?

- what should MacBeth do next? 

- and what about this Banquo 'lesser but greater' thing? What does it mean?

Soooo....

- after returning Mr. M gets the Thane of Cawdor title!

- King Duncan comes to the castle for a victory party

- Lady M tells Mr. M that he is a big softie and he should kill the king

- after dinner at night... (you can read along on your handout)

Read Act2 (fragment)

- how do you feel about the relationship between Mr. M and Lady M?

- How do they feel about the murders? 

... the next morning...

- the murder is discovered

- the king's sons are gone (they fled because they were afraid that they'd be next)

- everyone thinks the sons did it 

- so McB is crowned king!

Is all happy now? We'll see in Act 3 and 4 next week
