Whom does the Sentry bring before Creon and how was the culprit caught?
The Sentry brings Antigone before Theban King Creon. The Sentry previously tells the King of the illegal, partial burial of the corpse of Polyneices the traitor. The coating of dust is removed from the body, and the Sentry sets up guard over all of the corpses that are left above ground and exposed to the weather, the dogs, and the birds. Antigone comes back to check up on her brother's body. She finds her work undone, and starts to redo the appropriate rites and rituals. But she's stopped short, arrested, and brought before her uncle, the King.

What offense does Creon suspect the sentry and Teiresias to be guilty of in 'Antigone'?
Accepting bribes and telling lies are the offenses that Creon suspects the sentry and Teiresias to be guilty of in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon believes that powerful but secretive enemies oppose him. He feels that they have the money to bribe others to tell lies in order to discredit and overthrow him. He suspects that such is the case in the specific examples of the sentry who guards the unburied bodies of the disloyal Theban dead and of Teiresias the blind prophet's criticisms of the non-burial edict's impact.

Teiresias observes that Creon needs to listen and act upon what will be said during their meeting. He says that he has Creon's best interests at heart, as can be seen by previous advice.

What false conclusion does Oedipus reach as a result of his quarrel with Teiresias in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That Teiresias and Creon are conspiring to overthrow him is the false conclusion that Oedipus reaches as a result of his quarrel with Teiresias in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Teiresias the blind prophet accuses Theban King Oedipus of killing King Laius. Oedipus does not remember ever meeting Laius. It is a serious offense to kill a king, for which the current punishment is execution or exile. Either way, Creon stands to gain the royal job lost by Oedipus. Oedipus therefore thinks that Creon and Teiresias must be in cahoots.
