In Act 5, Scene 5, Macbeth learns that his wife has died.


In Act 5, Scene 6, Malcolm's army throws down their boughs and charges the castle.


In Act 5, Scene 7, Macbeth sword-fights Young Siward and bests him, and Macduff enters the castle.


In Act 5, Scene 8, Macduff finally confronts Macbeth, and Macbeth is slain.
