Much to do about nothing week 1

The eavesdropping theme really comes out at full throtle in Act II. This theme is very effective in this play because it has a great role in the comedy aspect of the play. It's funny to see all of these characters being "duped" by their own fault of gathering wrong information. It's funny how Benedick was set up by Don Pedro, Claudio and Leonato. Now, Benedick is being tricked into loving Beatrice for the sole reason that he thought that she thought that she loved him.
I find it amusing how the evil side aka Don John gets all of the right information on Claudio loving Hero so that he can block their union....and how the good side aka Don Pedro's following (or as Amanda says, the Don Pablo) gets the wrong information that Don Pedro loves Hero.
Seeing the characters going back and forth and using hearsay as their evidence for their reasoning makes the reader want to laugh for the sheer stupidity of the characters.
