In this scene, Banquo thinks to himself about the prophecies he has learned about, such as Macbeth becoming Kind, and his own line sitting at the throne. Lady Macbeth asks him to join the feast at night, and he agrees to it. Macbeth has a soliloquy by himself.

At this point in the scene, we see Macbeth becoming more hungry. It presents the theme that if you get what you want and you're still not happy, you've spent everything and gained nothing. With this, Shakespeare is teaching his audience to work hard for things that will satisfy you

Banquo is killed at dusk by two murderers, and Fleance escapes, being requested to avenge Banquo's death, showing that an important character's death is now foreshadowing a possibility of avengement.

In this scene, Macbeth sees Banquo's ghost at the royal feast. Lady Macbeth escorts everyone out of the room as he is way too frightened. He sees him because he is afraid that his throne is still not secure because Fleance escaped.

In this scene, Hecate scold the three witches for not letting her know what had been going on, so she then tells them to summon visions to Macbeth about faise insecurities about the family's royal throne.
