.... The people of Thebes looked up to King Oedipus, everyone wanted to be like him. As the play moves into scene one, already you can see Oedipus changing. We have to remember though that this play was only a day long so he faces all of these challenges in just one day.

When he says this, it tells the people that he didn’t kill him. As the play goes on he blames the death on K .....
