Answer:

Romeo does not receive the friar's letter.

Step-by-step explanation:

The friar's desperate plan is a direct result of Juliet's desperation. The friar does prevent Juliet's immediate sui cide and in that way his plan is a success. Of course, we know that his plan will eventually fail because Juliet will kill herself at the end of the play. His plan is intricate and complicated.
