Jacques returns to Duke Senior’s camp to discover that someone killed a deer. He suggests they present it to Duke Senior as an offering and asks Amiens to sing a song to mark the occasion. Back at the farm, Silivius delivers Phebe’s letter to “Johnnyseed”. Seeing it’s full of praise for Johnnyseed, Rosalind scolds Silvius for loving a woman who treats him so badly. S/he sends him back to Phebe with the message that Phebe should love Silvius. As Silvius is leaving, Orlando’s brother Oliver enters, transformed. He tells Rosalind and Celia that Orlando defended him from an attack by a lioness and presents a bloody handkerchief that had bandaged Orlando’s wounded arm. Rosalind faints at the sight of the blood and scrambles to resume her disguise when Oliver questions her manliness,. Back at Filippini Pond, Touchstone and Audrey are skinny dipping with throngs of other concertgoers when Audrey’s suitor, a local farmhand named William, shows up. Touchstone chases him out of the water with a barrage of questions to challenge his wit before Corin arrives to tell Touchstone that Johnnyseed and Anne Emma Grant would like to see him. Later, Oliver confesses to his brother that he’s fallen in love with Anne Emma Grant. He gives Orlando his inheritance and vows to live and die in the country as a shepherd. When Rosalind (“Johnnyseed”) enters, Oliver leaves. Orlando spills his heart out to Johnnyseed, saying that Oliver and Anne’s love has made him yearn even more for Rosalind and he can no longer keep on pretending. Johnnyseed comforts Orlando by saying that he has magical powers and that Orlando will marry Rosalind when Oliver marries Anne.
