This is the scene where Juliet's mom comes in after Juliet has just spent the night with Romeo.
When Lady Capulet comes in, she thinks that Juliet has been crying because of Tybalt's death. She thinks her joyful news will help cheer Juliet up. The good news is that Lord Capulet has agreed to have Juliet marry Paris in just a couple of days. She expects that Juliet will be happy.
Instead, Juliet asks to put off the wedding for a while. She is not sure she wants to marry Paris. Lord Capulet is beyond furious. He calls Juliet all sorts of horrible things and threatens to throw her out of the house if she doesn't obey him and marry Paris.
