subplot

parallel plot

i love romeo and xo

it is a!

not b because i don't see how this would make them look dangerous..

not c because that just doesn't make sense..

and not d because this too doesn't make sense, it does not really put the audience on edge in my opinion.

a makes the most sense, romeo's statement that in staying to speak to juliet he is risking his life, leads the audience to worry about his safety. obviously if he says that if he stays, he will be at risk, so of course this makes the audience worry for his safety!

answer is a) romeo's statement that in staying to speak to juliet he is risking his life, leads the audience to worry about his safety.

what is the context here? we need to know what story you're talking about : )
