Twelfth Night Part 2

Ok here is my continuation of the twelfth night play. I feel bad for Malvolio. He really gets the ass end of the deal in this play. He is Olivia's butler basically and he of course has fallen for Olivia. The messed up part about this is that during him hiding his feelings he has to deal with Viola which is disguised as Cesario, which is a messenger for Orisono, who is trying to date Olivia. Now here where its gets crazy, in the process of Viola delivering these messages for the Duke, Olivia starts to fall for Viola which to Olivia is Cesario, a man and not a woman. Malvolio is jealous of course but he stills deal with it. In the process of all this Olivia's uncle Sir Toby is trying to make her like Sir Andrew. But of course her eyes are set on Viola. See how poor little Malvolio is not winning at all. Now here is the really messed up part, Malvolio gets a cruel joke played on him by Sir Toby, Maria, and Feste. They plant letters that was supposed to be written by Olivia but really written by them, Malvolio finds the letters and start doing stupid stuff like wearing yellow tights and singing. Needless to say towards the end of the play everybody thought he had gone crazy and when he found out about the joke, he just found out how much of a loser he really was in all this. Everybody found love except for him, poor little Malvolio.
