Juliet and Friar Laurence planned to get Romeo and Juliet together, but Capulet wanted to marry Paris to Juliet on Thursday. The Friar gave her a potion that would make her seem dead for 42 hours, which she was to take Wednesday night. Friar Lawrence sent a message to Romeo for him to come and get Juliet when she awoke on Friday. But Capulet changed the wedding to Wednesday which meant that Juliet would have to take the potion late on Tuesday night which she did. That meant she awoke Thursday evening. Even if Romeo had received the message to come on Friday it would have been too late.
