Nurse:
- When Juliet wants to be alone to lament Romeo's supposed death, she deceives the Nurse by pretending to pray and then feigning anger when the Nurse interrupts. The Nurse is then persuaded to leave Juliet alone.
- Later, Juliet tricks the Nurse by pretending to have taken the sleeping potion given to her by Friar Lawrence. Juliet feigns death, deceiving both the Nurse and her family, which creates the necessary circumstances for her plan to reunite with Romeo.
Mother:
- Lady Capulet is not as prominently featured in the scenes where Juliet needs to deceive her. However, after Juliet refuses to marry Paris, Lady Capulet becomes angry and begins to scold her daughter. Juliet responds with defiance, surprising her mother.
Ultimately, it is Juliet's cleverness, manipulation, and willingness to deceive those close to her that enable her to pursue her love for Romeo.
