4A

Assertiveness and reason can be powerful when used correctly. When Juror 8 used both of these tactics it worked in his favor. The others jurors that tried these same tactics ended up failing because they contradicted themselves or Juror 8 contradicted them. Other jurors, like Juror 3, got too emotional when discussing their arguments. In Act Three, "How do you know what she saw? Maybe she's far-sighted...How does he know all these things" (Rose 62). Juror 3 lost whatever kind of argument he was going to create when he got too emotional. He was more angry at Juror 8 not voting the same way as him, that he lost his argument.
