Hèrmia was fall in love, she loved Demetri but Demetri was fall in love however, he loved another person, she was Hel.lena. One day Hel.lena and Lisandre planned to go to the forest, they wanted to run away. Demetri also loved Hel.lena, he knew that the couple wanted to run away so he went to the forest but they did not find them. Lisandre did not find Hel.lena, it was night so he slept in the forest. While he was sleeping, Puck (it was Oberón’s order) threw him a magic potion (it was a flower), it was to he loved Hèrmia. With this changes Hel.lena and Hèrmia were confused. Now Lisandre loved Hèrmia, Hel.lena loved Lisandre and Demetri loved Hel.lena. Also Puck threw Fairy Queen, Titània, a magic potion (it was a flower) and she loved a donkey, Flauta, he was lost in the forest, he had gone with Borumballa and Culera. And finally, Puck threw them (Lisandre and Titània) the antidote but since Demetri loved Hel.lena and Hel.lena did not love him, Puck threw again the potion, as a consequence he loved Hèrmia.
