Midsummer Night's Dream Question #6

In A Midsummer Night’s Dream I agree that Demetrius and Lysander are the same character in a way, because they are both chasing someone in the play. For example, when Puck puts the spell on Lysander he is chasing after Helena. The reason they are similar, is because Demetrius is chasing is chasing after Hermia at the same time. Then Puck puts the spell on Demetrius, so they’re both chasing Helena, which is another reason why they’re similar. Also, Lysander is being chased by Hermia, although he is chasing Helena. Demetrius is being chased by Helena, although he is chasing Hermia.

I think Helena and Hermia aren’t as similar as Demetrius and Lysander, but I think they are still similar. Helena is chasing Demetrius, even though he is chasing Hermia.

Teddy started to bring Micah home and he became closer to Teddy's parents. Micah was about to join another rival gang called Serpent Street. Michael told Teddy that O-1-O wasn't really who killed Tina and serpent street was. Micah figured out the name of the shooter by getting jumped in, and put in the hospital.

Teddy had laid out a plan to get revenge on the shooter and had followed through with it once he was in O-One-O territory. He sat in a parking lot and watched the police patrol route as they circled around the area. There was a group of gang members standing around and the store owner kept telling them to leave. Once the coast was clear, Teddy made his move. He got out of the car and went to talk to the gang members. After he had gained their trust, he turned on them and attacked them. Once he had gotten the last one on the ground, he asked him who the shooter was. The guy claimed it wasn't O-One-O, and refused to tell. The store owner had seen what happened and called the cops. The cops locked Teddy up in jail.
