a. He is not ruthless enough.

Explanation:

"Macbeth" is a famous tragedy by Shakespeare. Lady Macbeth and her husband begin to kill those around them in order to climb up to the throne. However, Lady Macbeth believes her husband is not ruthless and ambitious enough. She begins to coach him, to guide him as to which steps to take next, all due to her thirst for power. She even tells him to "look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under it," teaching him to deceive and manipulate others. He may not be ruthless enough - at first -, but she is, for the both of them.
