Entry 1: Today I had to try and convince Paris that it was a bad idea to marry Juliet. Even though I believe that I made pretty strong and true reasoning, he ignored and is going to still try to marry her. After Paris left, Juliet came to discuss things about the marriage with me. It wasn’t the best discussion considering she told me that if I didn't fix things, meaning not let Paris and her marry, she was going to kill herself.

Romeo and Balthasar then did something very stupid and quite frankly, they got very unlucky. They went to the place where Juliet laid, the graveyard. While going to sneak into the vault so that Romeo can kill himself right next to her, they ran into Paris there. Paris warns them to leave but they didn't
