King Alonso trudges through the rain-soaked island searching for any sign of his lost son. Gonzala does her best to comfort him over the derision of Antonia and Sebastian, who blame the King for his misfortunes and ridicule Gonzala’s optimistic idealism. Ariel arrives to cast a spell over Gonzala and Alonso, putting them to sleep under the guard of Sebastian and Antonia. Meanwhile, Caliban bristles at having to haul wood for Prospero until he hears the approach of Trinculo, the King’s jester, who he mistakes for one of Prospero’s demons. He hides under a cloak, which Trinculo discovers and uses as shelter from the rain. There, he finds Caliban, who he presumes from his stench is a strange mis-shapen creature from the island. Stephano, the King’s butler, drunk from the liquor that he found after the shipwreck, happens upon the pair and is joyfully reunited with Trinculo. Together, they get Caliban to drink liquor for the first time. In return, Caliban offers to be their devoted servant and renounces his loyalty to Prospero.
