Will Iago's Plan Work?

Iago has a plan to make Othello alone and miserable. He tries to make him isolate himself and ultimately separate with his wife. If he doesn't have his friends or wife, then he will be alone. Iago is a very honorable person in Othello's eyes. He is a man that he trusts and thinks has his best spirit in mind. Since Othello trusts Iago, Iago is put in a very easy place. Once he plants the idea of his wife cheating on him, Othello starts to go crazy and his plan is already working. However, like any man, Othello doesn't automatically believe him, he needs proof. Thus, Iago tries to bribe a woman to steal her hankercheif that Othello gave his wife as a present. She gets ahold of it and the plan officially can become detrimental to Othello.
