Any ideas on title meaning?  I don't think it's a Dickens or Shakespeare reference (at least not to the two plays of significance at the moment).

jmundt, try Romeo and Juliet Act II scene 4.

Given the joking around in that scene, I'm wondering how the outcome of the goose joke will be reflected in the comic.  I can only guess.  Looking forward to it, as always.

I forgot the title line from the razzing before the fight.  A couple questions

Is Erin really hurt, or is she just that good when she turns it on?

If she is hurt, is it a prop or blocking mishap?  Or, is it the price for the additional magic she's cast?

Last, why are these gals rehearsing this scene at all, since none of them are in the R&J production.  If any of them are, none of them are participants in this scene when the curtain goes up for an audience (unfortunately).

What leads you to this conclusion?

The line itself, probably not, but if she started bleeding profusely from the chest, stomach, or side, for no apparent reason...probably everyone would freak out.

If Clay took his revenge by swapping out prop weapons for real blades, Neville Sinclair-style, that could explain it.  However, that seems quite doubtful.  It would seem that there was either a hidden cost to the protection of the SJI that just came due, or something about the interaction between Rain and Adrian produced some sort of negative reaction in Erin.

I was actually secretly hoping that Erin was just such a gifted actress that she just embodied the line reading for kicks.

A quick  movement may open old wound and start bleeding inside

I think there's a line missing though. Between "Hold, Tybalt! Good Mercutio!" and "I am hurt", Pettuchio says "Away, Tybalt."

Depends on the text, I think. This one (http://shakespeare.mit.edu/romeo_juliet/full.html) lacks that line.
