Which of these phrases is the odd one out? The solution should not involve number of words/lines, letters, spaces, specific types of sentences, and all other things grammar and usage-related. Hope you know your Shakespeare.

1.) She is the white.

2.) I don't like the name Julieta. It needs to drop a letter, I think.

3.) "Is it really Jacks? I thought it was spelled differently..."

4.) Timidness is the best with locks.

5.) This Ancient Greece food staple is missing a letter.

6.) Beatrice is her name, but there's no heaven and hell here.

So, I'm thinking the odd one out is #2. My reasoning:
#1 is Bianca from Taming of the Shrew (a comedy);
#2 is Juliet from Romeo and Juliet (a tragedy);
#3 is Jaques de Boys from As You Like it (comedy);
#4 is Shylock from Merchant of Venice (comedy);
#5 is Oliver from As you Like it (comedy);
#6 is Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing (comedy)
