All: Okay.
Macbeth: So you're going riding?
Banquo: Yes.
Macbeth: With Fleance?
Banquo: Yes.
Macbeth: Excellent. Well, have a nice time.
(Exit Banquo)

Lady Macbeth: I feel rejected.
(Exit everyone except Macbeth)

Macbeth: I'm depressed.
Lady Macbeth: Well that's just fine and dandy.
Macbeth: I know.
Lady Macbeth: So, what about Banquo.
Macbeth: I'm going topatronise you now.
Lady Macbeth: I sense a breakdown in our relationship that could ultimately drive me insane.
Macbeth: Bummer.
Act III, Scene iii
3rd Murderer: Hello, I'm a mysterious person who Macbeth sent to intrigue Shakespeare commentators for centuries.
1st Murderer: Welcome aboard, son.
2nd Murderer: Here comes Banquo!
(Enter Banquo and Fleance)
Banquo: This is the scene where I, the tragic hero, die because Macbeth is a bastard.
Audience: Awww...
1st Murderer: This is where we do what we do best!
2nd Murderer: Die, scum!
Banquo: I'm dead. Bummer.
3rd Murderer: The kid's getting away!
1st Muderer: stab slash thrust gore dismember
2nd Murderer: Banquo is definately dead.
All: Yay!
Act III, Scene iv
Macbeth: Oh, golly gosh darnitt. Even after all that, Banquo isn't here. How disappointing.
Lady Macbeth: Not to mention suprising.
(Enter 1st Murderer)
Macbeth: Oh look... there's the mu... muddy child!
All: What?
Macbeth: Oh, nothing.
1st Murderer: We screwed up.
Macbeth: Crap.

Lady Macbeth: Siddown, bastard.
Macbeth: Right. Let's all eat, drink and be merry.
All: Yay!
Macbeth: I'll go sit over here.
Lennox: There's a seat for you here!
Macbeth: No there's not. The distrubingly gory ghost of Banquo which i will now fixate on is sitting there.
Lennox: ... oh.
Macbeth: Oh my god, it's a freaky bloody ghost of Banquo [aside]Who i most assuredly didn't kill[/aside]
Lady Macbeth: Don't mind him. he's insane.
All: Oh. Cool.
Macbeth: I feel that was in some way signicifant.
Lady Macbeth: Nah. Now everyone thinks you're insane. It's cool.
Macbeth: Yay!
Lennox: I get the feeling this scene has been butchered.
Audience: Yay!
Act III, Scene v
Hecate: This is an entirely irrelevant scene, possibly not even written by Shakespeare, but it's cool because i get to speak the whole thing in rhyme.
Audience: Yay!
Act III, Scene vi
Lennox: I'm a minor character but i get a nice long speech about how nasty macbeth is.
Lord: I'm such a minor character i don't even have a name, but i agree with Lennox.
Lennox: Yay!
--End Scene 3--
Okay. Now it's LATE at night, i'm tired, sleepy and bored, but this damned thing is so golly gosh darnitt addictive! Damnit.
Review and i'll love you forever.
