Read the excerpt from Act II of Julius Caesar. Cassius: Good morrow, Brutus. (They shake hands.)

Brutus: (Looking at the others) Know I these men that come along with you?

Cassius: Yes. (He names the men as Brutus shakes hands with them.) This is Trebonius. This, Decius. This, Casca. This, Cinna, and this, Metellus Cimber.

Brutus: They are all welcome.

Cassius: (Taking Brutus's arm) Shall I entreat a word? (He leads him aside to talk, as the others look at the first light of dawn.)

Decius: (Pointing at the sky) Here lies the east. Doth not the day break here?

Casca: (Gruffly) No. (He raises his sword.) Here, as I point my sword, the sun arises, and the high east stands as the Capitol, directly here.

(As Brutus and Cassius return to the others, Brutus takes a colored cord from Cassius and ties it about his waist. He smiles, showing he has joined them.)

Announcer 2: Brutus has decided to join the conspirators who plan to kill Caesar for the good of Rome.

Brutus: Give me hands all over, one by one. This shall be or we will fall for it? (They shake hands.)

Announcer 1: From now on, the conspirators will follow the noble Brutus, even though the troublemaker Cassius has better ideas.

Decius: Shall no man else be touched but only Caesar?

Cassius: (Strongly) Decius, well urged. Let Antony and Caesar fall together. (All murmur agreement until Brutus changes their minds.)

Brutus: (Gently correcting Cassius) Our course will seem too bloody, Cassius. Let's be sacrificers, but not butchers. And for Mark Antony, think not of him, for he can do no more than Caesar's arm when Caesar's head is off.

What is the result of the interaction between the men in this scene?

Brutus cannot be convinced to join the men and kill Caesar but devises a plan to kill Antony instead.

Cassius explains to Brutus that Antony is plotting Brutus' murder, and they have come to defend him.

Brutus joins the men in the conspiracy to kill Caesar but discourages them from killing Antony as well.

Cassius reprimands Brutus in front of the other men to force Brutus to join their plot against Caesar.
