Benedick does not love Beatrice. Beatrice definitely does not love Benedick! But everyone else can see that they are a perfect match! Will their friends’ machinations lead to a life-long love match for the confirmed bachelor and bachelorette, or are the pair doomed to trade witty barbs forevermore?
