This brought about a chain of events in my mind of how if Trebonius had spoken to caesar first that history would be changed forever and how today we could be under Rome's control. Mark Antony sends his servant to the group after they killed caesar to ask if they want to kill him too, because he ran when the conspirators killed caesar. After they met Mark Antony the group thinks they have won,and that Mark Antony will bend to their will so they give him the body of caesar. Mark Antony near the end of Act III Scene I plots to give a speech of how the conspirators killed caesar, and stir up the people with it. My reaction to this is positive because Mark Antony is getting revenge for caesar.

Act III Scene II
Act III Scene II starts as the conspirators want it to but it ends in utter mutiny. The speech given by Brutus sways the plebeians towards the conspirator's cause. After Brutus goes mark Antony give a speech that makes the people turnt, especially after hearing caesar's will, which leaves money to the people and new public areas. The people in this situation act like complete idiots as they are swayed by anything to any side. In the end, the people are setting off to go burn the houses of the conspirators and kill each and every one of them. This looks like Mark Antony is going to get the revenge he wants.
