Iagos evil plan
By Zach Peart
Iago spills the beans
Iago and rodrigo go to barbantios house late night and tell him that his daughter desdemona is sleeping with a black man named othello. At first the man barbantio didn't believe them at all. But they told him to go check if she was in her room and she was not. Barbantio outraged gets people gathered together to go find them. The twisted part is that othello, iago, and rodrigo are all friends! But iago is angered at othello because he gave away a position as lieutenant to cassio. So iago is trying to get back at othello by ruining his love. Rodrigo did not like iagos plan because he didn't have hatred toward either of them. Because barbantio was going to find othello and warn him of barbantio coming for them. Rodrigo doesn't speak of iagos plan though because he too is unaware of iagos plan. After rodrigo warned othello of barbantio othello and desdemona left. Scared that their love would be separated. Barbantio finds them and tried to get them separated with the priest. But the priest said that he had no right separating them. He leaves the desicion up to desdemona. If she truly love othello she could stay or she can leave and come back to her fathers house. She obviously choose to stay with othello.
