well he wanted to get kate to do his homework for him......
Put yourself in Kate's shoes - how would you feel if your fiance behaved like that at your wedding?

Click here for a web-page about the play. Once there, scroll down to the sections about Petruchio and Katharina. Perhaps you'll find clues there to answer your question.

Quizzy, you are nicer than I am!
I'm sure I'm not, really, Woofgang! You probably noticed that I didn't actually answer the question, but merely provided what I felt might be a helpful prod in the right direction. A bit of diligent analysis of the web-page I linked to - together with a previous reading of the actual play, I hope! - should have been helpful. (I do, however, take your 'homework' point.)
