In Act 3, scene one, Tybalt's argument is with Romeo. He
is not interested in fighting Mercutio. Tybalt wants to fight Romeo for his
embarrassment of Romeo's appearance at the Capulet's masquerade
party.
Tybalt wants revenge because Romeo crashed the
party. Tybalt has no idea about Romeo's marriage to Juliet at this
point.
Romeo does not want to fight Tybalt since he is now
his relative. Mercutio begins to fight Tybalt, embarrassed by Romeo's submissive nature.
Romeo gets in between them and Tybalt kills Mercutio, stabbing underneath Romeo's
arm.
Romeo must kill Tybalt to avenge Mercutio's death. Now
Romeo must flee the scene to keep from being sentenced to death by the
Prince.
