Look to the bottom of this post before you start

-Starts in Odysseus’ halls
-Athena (off-stage) “inspires” Penelope to get out the Bow (gun in our case) and the iron axes (targets in our case) for the competition
-Penelope goes upstairs to her room, and with a special key, unlocks the door to the secret room in which Odysseus’ treasures are kept (gold, silver, bronze, weapons, etc.)
-when she opens the big, old door, it creaks and groans
-(the details of the room are from lines 60-70 on page 426
-at some point, Penelope delivers the bow (gun) and axes (targets)
-This is an important sign, because making the choice to hold a competition to see which suitor is most
worthy to marry herself requires her to make the decision to give up believing Odysseus will return to her
-the information from lines 78- 109 in The Odyssey are important note at this point
-telemachus is the first to try, so he sets up the axes (targets) and tries to string the bow (shoot the targets). After a few failed attempts, he says something from line 149 to 154
-following Telemachus’ little speech, Antinous speaks to the all the suitors from line 159 to 161
-then, the first suitor attempts to shoot the targets with the gun (string the bow)
-he follows up his attempts with a small speech that is from line 172 to 185 in The Odyssey
-Antinous speaks again from line 191 to 198
-another suitor tries to shoot the targets (string the bow)
-the suitors continue to try as Odysseus takes the swineherd and goatherd outside
-details for this scene are in lines 218-269

-other important parts are found in lines 440-464, and on line 350
