In Act 3, scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo is faced with several moral questions that relate to the themes of the play.

On the one hand, Romeo does not want to fight against Tybalt because he is a Capulet. As Romeo married Juliet in secret, he considers Tybalt his family now. This touches on the themes of family and love. However, Romeo wants to defend Mercutio, and later on avenge his death. This addresses the subject of loyalty. Finally, Romeo feels that his love for Juliet has made him "effeminate" and unable to fight. This addresses the themes of honour and masculinity. It also discusses the effects of love.

Romeo kills Tybalt right after he marries Juliet in Act III. He is now family to Tybalt and does not want to fight him, but he can't tell anyone why. Romeo wasn't ever much of a fighter in the first place, and, due to the Prince's ultimatum from Act I, there are many reasons why Romeo wouldn't want to fight Tybalt. Still, Mercutio engages Tybalt in a duel after Tybalt hurls insult after insult at Romeo....

What was the time when they were finally done with the packing
frutty [35]

Answer:

They were finally done with the packing by 12:50 a.m.

Explanation:

The short story "Packing" by Jerome K. Jerome revolves around three friends and their packing attempts before their trip. The narrator narrates the events that occurred during their best efforts to be ready on time for their trip, infused with numerous disastrous turn-outs and disturbance from his pet dog Montmorency.

Priding himself with being an expert in packing, the narrator began packing for everyone but ended up confusing things. Then, when the other two friends, Harris and George took it upon themselves to pack the rest of the stuff. By the time they could manage to get everything (they believed to be needed) packed, it was already 12:50 a.m.
