A Midsummer Night's Dream Act 3 Summary

    In Act 3 Scene 1, Titania and Puck are on the stage with the actors for the play for Theseus and Hippolyta's wedding. The actors are changing the play, and Bottom walks off the stage. When Bottom returns, his head has been turned into that of a donkeys (courtesy of Puck) and all of the other actors run away in terror. Alone, Bottom begins to sing and wakes Titania, who immediately falls in love with him. She calls over her servants, who are made fun of by Theseus, and orders them to spoil him.  
    In Act 3 Scene 2, Robin reports Titania's love for Bottom to Oberon and also tells him that he put the love juice on a young boy in "Athenian clothing". When Helena and Demetrius walk in, Oberon realizes that Puck has put the juice on the wrong person, and a fight between Helena and Hermia, and Demetrius and Lysander takes place. After the fight, Oberon orders Puck to mislead Demetrius and Lysander so that they get lost, after that, Puck is to squeeze another type of flower juice on to Lysander's eyes, so that everyone will be in love with the right person again.
