Sample Response
The balcony scene in Romeo and Juliet is like a spycam. This is because Romeo was eavesdropping on Juliet and she had no idea. For example, Romeo says, "She speaks yet she says nothing. What of that?" A spycam is used to listen to and record people's actions without people knowing. Romeo is like a spycam because Juliet has no clue she is being watched and he is eavesdropping.
