There are three murderers in the scene. The action occurs at dusk (The First Murderer: "The west yet glimmers with some streaks of day.") The scene happens near the palace, in a park. Banquo and Fleance bring a torch to the scene. The First Murderer manages to put out the light, while all three of them attack and kill Banquo. The scene lasts a couple of minutes only, and the action unfolds very quickly. The dialogue is quick, with short, interrupted lines, which is logical considering the fact that this is a murder scene. At first, while they are waiting for Banquo and Fleance to show up, their language is wordier. But then, right before and after the murder, it is swift and abbreviated, telling us that the murderers are members of a lower social class (The Second Murderer: "Then ’tis he: the rest / That are within the note of expectation / Already are i' th' court.") Banquo's last words are that he is betrayed; also, the warning to Fleance to run away to safety. Banquo realizes in an instant that this is a political murder, and that his son is the next potential victim. So, he wants to protect him. We don't see from the text how Fleance escapes.
On the scene, there are three murderers. (The First Murderer: "The west still sparkles with the light of day"), the action takes place near the palace, in a park. Banquo and Fleance bring a torch to the fight. First Murderer turns out to be a successful killer by outputting the light, while all three of them attack and kill Banquo. Only a couple of minutes pass in this scene, and all the action happens quickly. Dialogue is quick and interrupted, which makes sense considering that the setting is a murder scene. At first, as they wait for Banquo and Fleance to come, their language is a little wordier. After the murder, the writing is swift and abbreviated, showing that the murderers are members of a lower social class (The Second Murderer: "And the rest of you are there, already."). Banquo's last words are that he is betrayed. Banquo realizes instantly that this is a political murder, and that his son may be the next victim. Because of this, he wants to protect him. It is unclear from the text just how Fleance escapes.
The point of the cartoon is to show how ignorant people can be about world problems. Many people decide to stick to their own mindset and are not open to other people’s advice and solutions.
I would say that I agree with the cartoon because many people find a way to ignore the problem. They decide to only focus on their own situations and forget about the most important ones that deal with the world.
