Read the lines from Act II, scene iii of Romeo and Juliet.

Mercutio: Where the devil should this Romeo be?
Came he not home to-night?

Benvolio: Not to his father’s; I spoke with his man.

Mercutio: Why that same pale hard-hearted wench, that Rosaline,
Torments him so, that he will sure run mad.

Benvolio: Tybalt, the kinsman of old Capulet,
Hath sent a letter to his father’s house.


Which plot detail adds to the suspenseful mood?

Rosaline is the source of Romeo’s pain.
Benvolio and Mercutio cannot find Romeo.
Tybalt is a relative of the Capulet family.
Mercutio has harsh feelings for Rosaline.
