Juliet looks stunning in her dress, catching Romeo's attention. He can't help but express his admiration for her beauty in an interview.

Romeo: Wow, this girl is more than just a sight for sore eyes, she's a glimpse of heaven. She dazzles in the night like Diamond White, leaving me stunned. Her beauty is beyond measure, and I'm awestruck by her charming presence. Despite everything that has befallen me, she makes me feel like I've won the lottery.

Tybalt spots Romeo conversing with Juliet and grows irate.

Tybalt: Wait a minute, is that a Montague in the midst of our party? How dare he set foot in here! Fetch me my sword, boy!

Capulet intervenes and calms Tybalt down, reminding him that Romeo is a respectable man in Verona.

Capulet: Whoa there! Calm down, nephew. Why are you so angry? Just relax, man.

Tybalt: How can I be calm when a Montague is present? This is unacceptable.

Capulet: Is that Romeo?

Tybalt: Yes, that scoundrel!

Capulet: Hey, take it easy, Romeo is a fine man with an esteemed reputation. Don't insult him, and calm your nerves. We're here to have fun, so act like it.

Tybalt: Uncle, you can't possibly expect me to let him off the hook?

Capulet: You're not the boss here, young man. Respect my decision and enjoy the party. Your actions are ruining everyone's mood.

The guests continue partying, ignoring the argument.
