Answer: D) Capulet is being teased by his wife.

In this scene, we are introduced to the conflict between the Montagues and the Capulets. Although the fight starts with two servants, we quickly see that the problems between the two families are serious and all-encompasing. In these lines, we see Capulet trying to get involved in the fight. However, Lady Capulet teases him by telling him that he is more likely to get use out of a crutch than out of a sword.
