Also, although it is not made clear why she intends to create this alternate appearance of Malvolio, it is strongly suggested through her imperative tone and dialogue that his intentions are mainly to humiliate the selfish Malvolio. Therefore, due to his immense ego, rather than questioning the fake letter in Olivia's name, by the deceptive Maria, Malvolio allows himself to be deceived by the scandalous costume with the hope of love. Therefore, due to this letter specifically asking Malvolio to change his appearance and personality, it can be interpreted as a form of disguise, which consequently allows Maria to "observe him, for the sake of mockery". Shakespeare concludes that the minority of characters in Twelfth Night seek pleasure in the form of satire and tension when referring to another character's flawed, naive, or stupid behavior.
