Macbeth becomes Thane of Cawdor because of overthrow of the previous treasonous thane
Foretold by witches before given information
Crowned without any attempt to improve position
Ambition comes from Lady Macbeth, who is excited to hear that he will be king
Sets up daggers for Macbeth
Princes still in way of crown, but they leave country b/c they feel they are unsafe
Fleance reminds audience more death is to come
Old man brings up unnatural occurrences, underscores the death and violence
Macbeth sees imaginary dagger showing his distress over what he has done
