About this episode
Romeo hides from his friends outside the Capulet’s house after the party. Finally, alone in the garden, he sees Juliet emerge from her balcony. He makes his presence known to her as she repeats his name. They profess their love for each other and vow to marry. Romeo leaves when Juliet’s nurse calls to her. He visits Friar Laurence and asks for her blessing of the marriage. Hoping their love might finally end the bitter rivalry between the two families, the Friar agrees to perform the marriage rites in secret.
