Answer:

"The famous knocking-at-the-gate scene plays an important role in forwarding the plot. It does so because it is brings in the character of Macduff. The general atmosphere of the story was very tense and there was a break in the middle of all of this through this scene. We were able to feel a break in the action with the ironic moment. Porter starts off the scene with, "Here's a knocking indeed! If a man were porter of hell-gate, he should have old turning the key"(2.3.1). Porter continues like this talking to himself and whoever may be knocking at the door. Eventually Porter goes to answer as he says, "Anon, anon! I pray you, remember the Porter"(2.3.2). Then Macduff will find the King, "O Horror, horror, horror!"(2.3.4) and allow the plot to continue forward. "
