Othello Act 2 Scene 1

Iago, his wife, and Desdemona get to Cyprus safely. Cassio greets them and tells them that the Turks have blown off course. Othello arrives and greets his wife. Othello tells them that the Turks have drowned. Iago is plotting his revenge as everyone exchanges greetings and such. Iago explains to Roderigo that Cassio loves Desdemona and she him. He says that Roderigo must anger Cassio in order for them to start the rumors. Roderigo agrees. Iago finds himself falling for Desdemona as well.

I think that Iago is just using Roderigo and that in the end, Iago will hurt Othello, Cassio, Roderigo, himself, and Desdemona. I do not think that this plan will end well.
