Macbeth: Act 2

       Lady Macbeth was first intrudes as a strong ambitious women that would kill angels to gain her desires but in act two, Lady Macbeth seem more nervous and worry. For instance, "Alack, I am afraid they have awaked, And ’tis not done. Th' attempt and not the deed Confounds us. Hark! I laid their daggers ready; He could not miss 'em. Had he not resembled My father as he slept, I had done ’t". This reveals that even if Lady Macbeth seem cold hearted or greedy, there still a vulnerable spot in her heart. And her recognizing her father in king Duncan, reveals that she wouldn't hurt the ones she love. Even when Macbeth came back traumatize, she encourage him to get better, shows how much she truly love and worry about her husband. In most plays or book ladies like Lady Macbeth are shown as these devilish women that would sacrifice anything, even their love ones but Lady Macbeth never abandon him in this crisis and instead was him pillar. For instance when Macbeth told everyone he killed the guards and Macduff started questing him, she fainted to grab all the attention Macbeth was getting for herself. And since she would do anything for her husband, doesn't that mean she pushed him to kill king Duncan for him. As shown above, she deeply cares for him and thinks she a great man or else she wouldn't have married him but she also said in Act one that he was to kind, so maybe she believe that Macbeth needs help taking his density and achieving greatness. She came up with the idea to kill king Duncan for her husband gain and not herself.

     
   In scene three, Everyone found out about the king's death and of course they wanted answers. But the only people that can provide answers were killed by Macbeth. MacDuff found it strange that Macbeth would do such a foolish deed and started questioning him causing Lady Macbeth to dislike all the attention her husband was getting, so she fainted. For she already knows how delicate he is in this matter.  The other reason she fainted was because of Macduff questioning Macbeth. Lady Macbeth saw Macduff suspicion of Macbeth and worried the others will soon catch on Making he fainting act as a diversion. Not only her fainting was a distraction but also a way to show weakness. The action of fainting is usually occurs when someone is sick or weak, and right now in a confuse situation, she need to look harmless so that no-one would suspects she had any part in crime.

      Earlier in scene two, a disorientated and unsettle Macbeth came back astonish by his actions that he was frozen in place. The reads read how his paranoia took over, "There’s one did laugh in ’s sleep, and one cried. 'Murder!' That they did wake each other. I stood and heard them. But they did say their prayers, and addressed them Again to sleep", After Lady Macbeth finish telling what she heard, he starts panicking that other will find out what he had accomplish. His panicking reveals that the action of killing king Duncan haunts him faster than an Australian tiger beetles' speed and a cheetah's speed combine and that he quickly regrets killing the king.  But also he believes that King Duncan blood will never wash off his hands, for instance "Will all great Neptune’s ocean wash this blood Clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather The multitudinous seas incarnadine, Making the green one red", Macbeth has shown that he's not willing to forget his actions and move on, like many killers but instead he chosen to torture himself until death. This reveals that Macbeth was fragile in that moment in both mindset and emotional set. Macbeth's mindset made him want to be unconscious, "To know my deed, ’twere best not know myself" and this mistake will cause him to lose his self later in the play.

    Macduff was the first to find his king killed and he immediately sounded the alarm and spread the horrible news. Macduff also felt surprise and was disgusted by the crime that was committed and out of the group he was the one that kept on asking questions and know who was the real killer.  While king's Duncan's sons, Donalbain and Malcolm both fear for their lives and cry for their father. And when the others characters came they were all shock and wanted answer. In today's society, most of the people would react with protest and yell at the government for change. Others would find this as a great chance to increase their career or lifestyle or create memes. The government would be most likely be happy for the king's/ president's death and use this a an advantage to pass/achieve whatever they fancy. And of course there will be people that spread lies and rumors that will most likely appear on the new; causing more chaos in the United States.
