Peter Quince, Nick Bottom, and the others are rehearsing in the forest and Puck decides to watch. He realized how much a jerk Nick Bottom was being so when he went of stage (into a bush) waiting for his cue, Puck followed him and turned his head into that of a donkey's. He didn't notice so when he came out he was surprised when everyone was scared of him and ran away. Bottom starts to sing which wakes Titania up. She immediately falls in love with him (this is obviously because of the love potion that Oberon put on her eyes). Titania invites Bottom to come with her and have her fairy servants take care of him.
Act 3, scene 2:
Puck told Oberon about Titania's love for Bottom and that he put the love juice on a man with Athenian clothes. Oberon realizes that Puck messed it all up when Helena, Hermia, Lysander, and Demetrius show up and start arguing. Lysander and Demetrius challenge each other to a fight for Helena. Oberon wants to fix this and end the fight so he tells Puck to prevent them from fighting each other. He does this by making the forest foggy so they can't see each other and disguising his voice to sound like the other to lead them away from each other.
