  1. Lady Bracknell bribed the maid to found where Gwendolen had gone. She followed her daughter from London to Hertfordshire
  2. Cecily has a large amount of money in the bank because she was the heiress of her grand father fortune, Thomas Cardew who also is the one who addopted Jack and designated him as Cecily´s legal guardian after Thomas death.
  3. Lady Bracknell must consent to Jack´s marriage to Gwendolen if not Jack would not give his consent to Algernon and Cecily´s marriage. Bracknell had a back up plan that was wait untill Cecily´s come of age but Jack replied that according to her grandfather´s will that would happened when she turned 35.

  5. Jack´s given name turns out to be Ernest. As the elder son he was named after his father who was Ernest John Moncrieff .
  6. Bunbury "dies" the Algernon´s fictional friend happened to be "killed" after the arrival of Lady Bracknell to Jack´s house and bumped into Algernon who was there under the excuse of visiting Bunbury. When Bracknell asked him about his friend he tries to cover himself and blurt that Bunbury is dead.

     8. It´s an examle of Pun. This is a form of word play that exploits multiple                

        meanings of a term or similiar sounding words for an intended  

        humorous and rethorical effect.

    10. Her comment about long engagements being bad because they give people a chance to get to know one another is different than what you would expect normal commentary to be.
