Coincidently to servants of the house of Montague enter the stage. The scheming Capulet’s decide to try and provoke the Montague's so that they have a lawful reason to fight them by defending themselves. So they Capulet servants Abram and Sampson try too provoke them by biting their thumb at them, but the plan doesn’t go as planned because the Montague's don’t react as anticipated because they simply ask ‘Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?’ but because the Capulet’s don’t expect it they ask themselves if it is lawful is they say yes because they started it.
