This Juliet did not appear in the play as performed, only in the variant which Shakespeare wrote while under pressure from [[James Burbage]] to "make dark [[Tragedy|tragedie]] light". Other additions included [[The Doctor (The True and Most Excellent Comedie of Romeo and Juliet)|the Doctor]], [[Amy Pond (The True and Most Excellent Comedie of Romeo and Juliet)|Amy]] and [[Rory (The True and Most Excellent Comedie of Romeo and Juliet)|Rory]], who were able to prevent Juliet and her [[husband]] [[Romeo Montague]] from both committing [[suicide]] in the [[Capulet tomb]] in Act V Scene III. After they were reunited, the Doctor stopped the couple from leaving [[Verona]] to start a new [[life]] together and said they had to help heal the rift between their two feuding [[Family|families]]. He further elaborated that their deaths would have shown them "[[hate]]'s consequence and [taught] them both to end their harsh discord and emnity". Juliet noted that this hypothetical reconciliation was now undone but Amy revealed they had a "cunning plan" and proceeded to unveil a [[Romeo Montague (clone)|second Romeo]] and Juliet. | This Juliet did not appear in the play as performed, only in the variant which Shakespeare wrote while under pressure from [[James Burbage]] to "make dark [[Tragedy|tragedie]] light".

Juliet called her and Romeo's doubles "[[Witchcraft|witch-craft]] summon'd [[twin]]s", asserting they could not be of "[[human]] [[flesh]] and [[blood]]" as they did not [[Breathing|breathe]]. Romeo agreed, saying they were "like [[Proteus]]", and asked who it was "that [[Walking|walk]] and dost not [[Speech|speak]] and counterfeit the presentation of [their] dead likeness". However, Amy explained Juliet was "a borrow'd [[Teselecta]]" while Rory elucidated that Romeo was a "recently grown" [[Sontaran]] [[clone]]. The Second Romeo and Juliet then took up their positions as if they had been killed, with Romeo on the altar and Juliet lying across him. The Doctor, Amy, Rory, and the real Romeo and Juliet, retreated into [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] upon hearing the watch approach, with it being the [[Chief Watchman (The True and Most Excellent Comedie of Romeo and Juliet)|Chief Watchman]] who discovered the slain [[corpse]]s. When he arrived at the scene, Juliet's [[father]] [[Capulet]] exclaimed "O [[Lady Capulet|wife]], look how our [[daughter]] [[Blood|bleeds]]!" and observed that Romeo's [[dagger]] was "empty on the back of Montague and mis-sheathed in [his] daughter's bosom". Meanwhile, [[Juliet Capulet's nurse|Juliet's nurse]] said the sight of her [[death]] was "a [[bell]] that warn[ed her] [[old age]] to a sepulchre". Romeo's distraught [[Lady Montague|mother]] and [[Montague|father]] also attended the scene soon afterwards, with both patriarchs quickly ending their quarrel. At that point Romeo and Juliet emerged from the TARDIS, revealing the subterfuge involving their doubles, and celebration ensued.
