  1. Act IV, Scene 1
    1. Sebastian is mistaken for Cesatio. "Out of my sight! - Be not offended, dear Cesario" (Act 4, Scene 1, Line 44). This quote shows that Olivia is misunderstanding him as Cezario because they are twins.

    2. Sebastian is pleased with Olivia's interest. "Id it be thus to dream, still let me sleep!" (Act 4, Scene 1, Line 58). This quote tells Sebastian is interested in Olivia that is why if he is sleeping, he does not want to wake up to finish what is happening between him and her conversations.

    Act IV, Scene 2
    1. This scene takes place in a dark room. Someone invited him to the house and Malvolio thought that this house is dark.

    2. The Fool is disguised as Sir Topas.

    3. Malvolio thinks the house is dark because Olivia is madat him and he is really depressed about that. "I sat, this house is as dark as ignorance, though ignorance were as dark as hell"(Act 4, Scene 2, Line 40). Because of this his mind is full of madness and insane.
