Thank you We sneak in and here's your shmoop du

00:05

jour Brought to you by sibling rivalry it's all fun

00:08

and games until someone gets stabbed in the back And

00:14

we're reading the tempest a spear Antonio sebastian Antonio bastard

00:20

Like a tennis match Paul goes back and forth back

00:22

and forth All right we're done These lines indicate that

00:25

antonio is what these lines right here but for your

00:29

conscience And here the potential answers in these lines sebastian

00:36

asks antonio if it weighs on his conscience that he

00:39

stabbed his brother prospero in the back and took his

00:43

throne Antonio's reply Conscience What conscience So what does this

00:49

tell us about the sort of person that antonio is

00:52

Well choice is completely ruled out There's Nothing loyal or

00:55

trustworthy about stabbing your brother in the back Yeah Then

00:59

there's choice See which is kind of on the right

01:01

track but not completely irreverent means disrespectful Which antonio is

01:07

But we've got no evidence that he's particularly brave to

01:10

be challenged prospero's to an iron cage deathmatch for the

01:13

throne Well that might be brave but we have a

01:16

feeling that's not how it went down Option d sounds

01:19

pretty possible Antonio is definitely manipulative and has to be

01:22

at least a little bit smart to have pulled off

01:24

a coup against prospero's However there's Nothing in these lines

01:28

that definitively tells us that antonio is outright intelligence except

01:33

that he's speaking like a shakespearean character anyway And that

01:37

doesn't count because after all he is a shakespearean characters

01:40

The correct answer is b way Have all the evidence

01:43

we need to convict antonio of being treacherous meaning that

01:46

he's prone to be trail He also pleads guilty to

01:49

being unscrupulous when he admits that he doesn't feel guilty

01:52

about stabbing his brother in the back Could we get

01:55

this guy a public defender really digging his own grave 00:01:58.932 --> [endTime] eh
