  • Please marry this shrew. She is awful but also rich.
  • Hmm okay I would like a wife with money, I will woo her.

  • I now pronounce you man and wife
  • She says I do
  • There are two daughters. The oldest being Katherine (the shrew) and the youngest Bianca. Hortencio and Gremio are trying to win over their father Baptista however he says that no one can marry Bianca until Katherine is married "That is, not to bestow my youngest daughter Before I have a husband for the elder" Meanwhile, Lucentio falls in love with Bianca.

  • Falling Action
  • I'm actually Vincentio not a maiden
  • That isn't the sun, It's the moon
  • Katherine and Petruchio are to be married. Petruchio shows up late to the ceremony in clothes that are not appropriate for the occasion. He excuses this by saying "To me she is married, not unto my clothes". They are married and Petruchio continues to be rude throughout the wedding day. After the ceremony, he takes Katherine away without even attending the usual dinner after the wedding.
  • Resolution
  • Tell them about wifely duty
  • After much effort from Petruchio to "tame" Katherine, he finally makes a breakthrough. Petruchio had been starving Kate for days. He won't give the food to her until she thanks him and tells her "The poorest service is repaid with thanks And so shall mine before you touch the meet". She thanks him and this is the beginning of Katherine starting to obey her husband.
  • Thank you my lord
  • Katherine now obeys everything Petruchio says. When Petruchio and Katherine are on their way to Padua she agrees that "the sun it is not if you say its not". He then convinces her that upon meeting Vincentio, that he is a maiden and not a man. All of them together go back to Padua together.
  • Uhh okay I guess

Petruchio wins to everyone's surprise. He tells Kathrine to tell the other women of their duties as a wife "Thy husband is thy lord, thy life, thy keeper, thy head, thy sovereign, one that cares for thee..." The shrew has been successfully tamed.
  • Your husband's provide for you and keep you safe the least we can do is be loving and obedient
