Act IV, Scene II

A room in the castle, Othello has found Emilia and questions her about Desdemona.

Othello: “Is she cheating on me Emilia”

Emilia: “No she would never do that, she isn’t like that”

Othello: ”Have you ever seen them alone doing anything”

Emilia: “No I haven’t seen or heard them do anything like that”

Othello: ”Did she ever send you out of the room so they can be alone”

Emilia: “Nope. Never”

Othello: ”That’s weird”

Emilia: “To be honest Othello, Desdemona would never cheat on you. She really loves you”

Othello: “I don’t believe you. You are lying to protect that whore. Get out of my sight”

Emilia leaves the room

Othello thinking to himself: “she is lying for her friend. I should have seen this coming”

Emilia and Desdemona enters the room.

Othello: ”Come here Desdemona and Emilia can you give us some privacy”

Emilia leaves the room

Desdemona: ”Why are you so mad?”

Othello: “Who are you. I dont feel like I know you anymore?”

Desdemona: ”I am your loyal wife”

Othello: ”LIER!!!!! I don’t believe you, you whore”

Desdemona realizes what she is being accused of.

Desdemona: ”I would NEVER cheat on you. I love you. You’re my husband”

Othello: ”I don’t believe you”

As Emilia re-enters the room to check on Desdemona Othello walks out.

Othello: “Don’t tell anyone about our conversation”

Emilia: "Are you Okay?"

Desdemona: ”Emilia am I awake or asleep because this feels like a bad dream. Can you please go get Iago.”

Emilia: “all right”

Soon Iago enters the room

Desdemona: ”Whats going on Iago. What am I gonna do?”

Iago: ”Don’t worry there is something on his mind that bothering him and he is taking it out on you. Everything will get better soon”

Desdemona leaves the room and Iago and Rodrigo meets up.

Iago: ”we have to do something to get rid of cassio”

Rodrigo: ”hmmm”

Iago: ”Can you do it?”

Rodrigo: ”I don’t know”

Iago: ”Look if we can get rid of him them you will be able to stay close to Desdemona and maybe have a chance with her”

Rodrigo: ”Do you really think so”

Iago: ”I know so. Trust me”

Rodrigo: ”All right. I will do it for Desdenona”
