I don’t have the passage—could you paste it or tell me which play/scene it is? I can’t pick the best theme without seeing the text.

If you can’t, here’s a quick way to decide which choice fits a passage about justice:

- “Justice always comes to those who deserve it.” → look for clear, deserved punishments/rewards and an overall moral balance at the end.
- “Justice can be manipulated by those in power to wrongfully punish.” → look for rulers/judges using the law to settle scores, convict innocents, or protect allies.
- “Justice exposes the truth, and nobody is above it.” → look for revelations, confessions, or an authority finally held accountable because truth comes out.
- “Justice sometimes comes at the expense of others.” → look for situations where achieving justice harms innocents or requires sacrifice.

Paste the passage and I’ll pick the best answer and point to the lines that support it.
