Midsummer Night's Dream Act 3 Summary

In Act 3 Scene 1, the people playing in Theseus' play is practicing in the woods. While practicing, Puck the fairy turns Bottom's head into a donkey. When everyone sees it, they run away except for Titania. Titania fell in love with him because she had the eyelid fairy put on her. She put Bottom to sleep and took him away.

In Act 3 Scene 2, Demetrius and Lysander still fight over Helena. Hermia comes and asks why Lysander left him and he said he no longer loves her. She doesn't believe it at first but when she does believe it, she blames it on Helena. Demetrius and Lysander go elsewhere to fight but Puck leads them away from each other to try to fix the problem. Puck puts the eyelid flower fixer on Lysander so that when he wakes up, everything will be back to normal.
