Scene: 1
So basically this scene is for releasing the spells of love from all of the people, which are unbounded in it. Titania dreamt of falling in love with an ass and Bottom had a dream of being an ass. Because Oberon felt he was being an ass (literally) he reunited with Titania and they danced. Thesues, Hippolytia, and Egus spot the lovers in the forest, while they were taking a stroll, and they were amazed because Demetrius and Lysander are enemies, but they are there together. They return to the palace to continue the special day.
Scene: 2
Quince and Flute are looking for Bottom because they are worried about the play because Bottom plays the main role. They are scared that they were not able to perform for the king, but suddenly from nowhere Bottom appears and they are able to act out the play for the king. Bottom tells them as a joke not to eat Garlic and Onions because it is not sweet for Comedy, and the play went on for the wedding.

Act 3
Scene: 1
We come back to the actors again who are practicing for the play Pyramus and Thisbe. Bottom has many interesting parts such as Pyramus kills himself with a sword, and the lion is frightening, both acting are sure to scare the women. Therefore Bottom needed to come up with something, which was announcing that the lion was an actor and he needed to show part of his face. Then Puck plays a joke on Bottom and gives him an ass's head. (Donkey) The actors see his head and they storm into the forest. Then with luck Titania sees Bottom, and falls in love with him because she was under the spell of the flower juice.
Scene: 2
Puck goes back to Oberon and tells him what happened to Titania. Oberon is pleased that Titania is being humiliated in such a way. Hermia is forced to believe that Demetrius killed Lysander, so she cured Demetrius. She goes away, leaving Demetrius to fall asleep in front of Oberon. Helena believes that Lysander is only teasing her with, and tells him that his phrases are sueless. She wakes up Demetrius, on whose eyes Oberon has applied with the herb. Demetrius sees her and also falls in love with Helena. In the middle of this argument over which guy loves Helena more, Hermia arrives. Hermia is speechless by Lysander's words, and also she does not believe that he could possibly love Helena. Oberon and Robin step into the scene. Oberon is angry about the mess that Robin has made and orders him to separate Demetrius and Lysander.

Act 2
Scene: 1
Well, basically this scene is about scam and arguing again. Oberon and Titania enter the act from opposite sides, and for some reason they start arguing about things. (This not suitable for some audience) They also start arguing about who gets the Indian boy, that’s when Oberon gets the sinister idea. He tells Puck (another fairy) so go fetch some flowers. The flower is called the love-in-idleness, and it also has a magical mysterious power to make someone crazy in love with the first person they see upon awakening. This scheme was made so that Titania will give in to Oberon and therefore forfeiting the Indian boy.
Scene: 2
Lysander and Hermia has been walking through the forest for quite some time so they decide to take a rest and they decide to sleep. As Puck enters the scene he is wandering around the forest for Demetrius and Helena, he finds Lysander and Hermia. Little as he knows about the two he is trying to find he sees them sleeping apart so he drops the flower juice onto Lysander's eyes. Demetrius and Helena find them and try to wake them up. Lysander looks at Helena first so he falls in love with her instead with Hermia.

Act 1
Scene: 1
Well, basically this is a disaster for most of the characters in this scene. As Theseus and Hippolyta plan their wedding, the bomb drops on them. It seems as thought Demetrius wants to marry Hermia, Hermia loves Lysander and Lysander lovers her back. So, in the end that means Hermia has nothing to do with Demetrius. They start arguing and come to this conclusion. Wait before the conclusion; they state that hermia must obey her father because he is the person, which gave her her beauty. Also it is mandatory that she obeys her father. She either marries Demetrius or she takes the painful way out. The painful way is to become a widow. They decided to give her enough time, which was at the wedding. Hermia and Lysander make an escape plan so they are able to marry each other.
Scene: 2
Peter Quince is a director of a band of armature actors and they are supposed to act out a play for the wedding of Theseus and Hippolytia. Well, while he was giving everyone their scripts and roles, this guy comes in and said he wanted to do every single role in the play. Guess who that was? Nick Bottom, what a foolish man; he said he wanted to act out everyone’s parts. This who thing meant one thing, which was as we know in Hollywood, "A Star". All the lights toward him, making the ladies shriek, and catching everyone’s eyes. Once after the big commotion died, Quince sends everyone off to practice and memorize his or her lines.
