Juliet

Juliet

Nurse

Juliet

Nurse

[Scene 6]

Romeo

Guh, where is she? I can barely stand it.

Friar Laurence

Let’s just hope we’re doing the right thing. —FL

Romeo

Amen. But whatever happens, it’s fine. Nothing can destroy what I feel for this girl.

Friar Laurence

Just slow your roll a bit, Romeo, okay? Everything in moderation. Don’t too fast or too slowly. It’s like eating a ton of honey. It’s sweet, but too much will make you sick. —FL

Juliet has checked into Friar Laurence’s Church.
