Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Hero's triumphant return in the final scene.
  • Here's to a scheming clergyman whose plan actually has the desired effect. Yes, Laurence, we're looking at you.
  • Antonio's series of monologues in 5.1 where he pretty much tells off everyone.

Antonio: Boys, apes, braggarts, jacks, milksops!
Leonato: Brother Anthony-
Antonio: HOLD YOU CONTENT!

  • When Boracchio is explaining the plot to destroy Hero to Don John. Bonus points if Don John throws on an Evil Laugh for good measure.
  • Beatrice and Benedick's first argument.
  • Dogberry and his bumbling crew exposing the whole sham.
