A despairing Juliet begs Friar Lawrence's help in averting a marriage to Paris. If he can't help her, she has resolved to commit suicide. Friar Lawrence has a solution: she should go along with her father's plan, but when it's time to marry Paris, Juliet will take a potion that mimics death.
Still in Venice after the trial, Portia stops on a street and instructs Nerissa to find Shylock's house and have him sign the deed bequeathing everything he owns to Lorenzo and Jessica; then they will be home by tomorrow
