Scene One-
It opens with two tribunes, Flavius and Marullus, scolding two common people because they are outside parading around when they should be working. When they question them as to why they aren't working, they're response is that Caesar has returned with victory from Pompey. Flavius gives them a speech saying how they should be ashamed of celebrating this, and commoners return back to work with a more modest vibe.
Scene Two-
Caesar is out celebrating his win from Pompey. He climbs up the stairs with Antony, Brutus, their wives, along with many more followers. While going up, Caesar tells Antony to hit his wife to get rid of her sterility. Antony readily agrees.
When a soothsayer calls upon Caesar and tells him to beware the Ides of March, Caesar just laughs it off and leaves.
When Caesar leaves, Cassius jumps on and asks Brutus what's wrong. When Brutus replies that he's worried that the people will crown Caesar as king, Cassius hurriedly states that he is getting too power hungry. Also, that the position of Caesar is equal to everyone. Cassius is coming up with a plan to assassinate Caesar and hopes that Casca and some other will join him.
Caesar is a little weary about Cassius, and wants Antony to watch him closely.
Scene Three-
Casca meets up with Cicero and Cicero tells him that he has seen many strange events on the streets of Rome. When Cassius arrives, he tells Casca that there is reason behind all these weird occurrences. Casca then tells Cassius that the senators are planning to make Caesar king the following morning. Upon hearing this news, Cassius draws his dagger and threatens to die before ever allowing Caesar to achieve that much power. Casca shakes hands with Cassius and they agree to work together to prevent Caesar from seizing power. When Cinna arrives, they go to Brutus' and throw their notes in through his window. Cassius is positive that Brutus will join them.
