The friar has a knockout potion which makes someone appear dead for 42 hours. Juliet is to take it and then after she is buried Romeo will come along 42 hours later and pick her up and take her to Mantua with him. It's a harebrained scheme. It would have worked better if the Friar had stayed by the body of Juliet until she woke up and then dressed her as a nun. Unfortunately he was too much of a coward to do this.
