In the Capulet house Lady Capulet calls to the Nurse, needing help to find her daughter. Juliet enters, and Lady Capulet dismisses the Nurse so that she might speak with her daughter alone. She immediately changes her mind, however, and asks the Nurse to join the conversation.

Lady Capulet asks Juliet what she thinks about getting married. Juliet replies that she has not given it any thought.

Lastly  A servingman enters to announce the beginning of the feast.
