Merry Mischief--
Arriving in Windsor with very little money, John Falstaff decides to raise funds by wooing two wealthy, married women. His servants refuse to help him, and after being sacked they go to the husbands of Falstaff's intended targets. Falstaff send both women, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page, almost identical letters. The two discover Falstaff's intentions and together decide to make sport of him and pretend to be amenable to his advances.
