Detailed explanation-1: -She tells Macbeth that once Duncan is asleep, she’ll get his servants so drunk that they pass out. Then she and Macbeth can kill Duncan and blame his servants for the killing. Lady Macbeth’s plan is good enough to convince Macbeth to change his mind and agree to kill Duncan.
Detailed explanation-2: -How does Lady Macbeth save the situation in this scene? She is firm with Macbeth and reasons with him to get him to calm down. She is also the one who returns the daggers to the crime scene and smears the guards with blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -One reading is that her faint is faked to distract from Macbeth’s shaky story. But if the faint is real, it suggests she just now realizes the truth of what they’ve done, and is overwhelmed by her husband’s ability to kill not only Duncan but also the attendants, and lie so easily about it.
Detailed explanation-4: -After the murder (Act two, Scene three) Without warning during this scene, Lady Macbeth faints. This has been argued about ever since the play was first performed.
Detailed explanation-5: -After Macdugg finds Duncan murdered, he returns, screaming that Duncan is murdered. Macbeth pretends to ack horrified, and then Lady Macbeth enters, and she acts as shocked and horrified as her husband, although she faints later.
