Oberon instructs Puck to create a fog so the young men will not be able to see each other. Then Puck (who is also called Robin Goodfellow) is to imitate the voices of Lysander and Demetrius to lure them away from each other. We see that Puck is successful and the duel is avoided.
Oberon actually sent Puck ( aka Robin Goodfellow) to find a flower that could make anything or anyone fall in love with anything else. The rumour that Puck left his home beacuse Oberon was forcing him to marry Moth and Puck didn't want to is all a pack of lies.
Puck tells Oberon that the Queen is in love with Bottom. Oberon has asked Puck to do this so that he could get even with his wife for not giving him her slave child. He has a laugh at her expense by watching his wife swoon over a man with a donkey head.
Robin Goodfellow is the servant of Oberon, the King of the Elves. He is Puck, the one that goes about applying the juice of the love-in-idleness flower to the eyes of people to make them fall in love with the wrong people. Though he deliberately does this in mischief only with Titania. That too on being instigated by Oberon.
In A Midsummer's Night Dream, Helena believes that Lysander's love for her and Hermia's lack of understanding is a ruse or prank. Seeing that Lysander's love for Hermia was a strong love previous to the nectar applied by Robin, it seems implausible that he would fall in love for her so strongly. In addition, Hermia's complete confusion of what is happening promotes the thought that Lysander's love of Hermia is false for if Lysander truly loved Helena, wouldn't Hermia have known?
Oberon asks Puck, also known as Robin Goodfellow, to help him in his plot to punish his wife, Titania. He instructs Puck to retrieve a magical flower whose juice can cause people to fall in love with the first creature they see upon waking. Oberon intends to use this magic to make Titania fall in love with something ridiculous, thereby teaching her a lesson for her defiance.
Gay.
