Question

In act 4, what compels juliet to agree to the friar’s desperate plan?

Answer 1

Juliet strongly feels that this is the only possible way she and Romeo will be able to escape from the bondage's of past, and maintain a loving, healthy marriage once they've escaped from the house of the Capulet's, and Montague's. She also has to be married to her cousin in less than a few days, so it puts her into a frenzy to try an idea that may bid her and fair Romeo joy.
