Read the nurse's words to Juliet from Act II, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.

Nurse: Your love says, like an honest gentleman, and a courteous, and a kind, and a handsome, and, I warrant, a virtuous,-Where is your mother?

Juliet: Where is my mother! why, she is within;

Where should she be? How oddly thou repliest:

'Your love says, like an honest gentleman,

Where is your mother?'

Based on your knowledge of the characters, what does the nurse's question most likely foreshadow?

that Lady Capulet will overhear and punish the nurse for her interference

that Lady Capulet is not to be trusted and will betray her daughter in the end

that what the nurse is about to share may have very serious consequences

that the nurse will later seek Lady Capulet to tell her about the wedding plans
