Puck tells the fairy that it would be better if Titania and Oberon did not meet because the just fight when they do so. Titania has stolen a young boy whom she keeps with her and spends her time caring for. Oberon is jealous of the attention that the boy receives so he demands that Titania gives him the boy. This is a request that she refuses. After that they leave from each other. Oberon tells Puck to put some love juice onto Titanias eye so that she will fall in love with the first animal she sees. Right after that Helena and Demetrius arrive in to the woods . Demetrius tells Helena to go away, and that he does not love here even though she told him about Hermia and Lysander. He says to here "You do Impeach your modesty too much, /To leave the city and commit yourself / into the hands of one that loves you not; / To trust the opportunity of night / And the ill counsel of a desert place, / With the rich worth of your virginity"(2.1.214-219) here answer to him is "Your virtue is my privilege, / for that it is not night when I do see your face; / Therefore I think I am not in the night, / Nor doth this wood lack worlds of company; / for you in my respect are all the world. / Then how can it be said I am alone, / When all the world is here to look on me?"(2.1.220-226). Oberon overheard the entire conversation so he decides to make Demetrius to fall in love with Helena. He tells the puck to take some of the love juice and put it on Demetrius eyes so that he fall's in love with Helena. This part of the play shows that if your love for somebody is not responded back it just makes you want it more. Because you just want it because you can't have it. Helena also acts like a dog, no mater how much her master (Demetrius) abuses her she will still wag here tail when she is around him.
