Oberon, the king of the fairies in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream," uses a magical flower, known as the love-in-idleness, to create chaos among the characters. He instructs Puck to retrieve the flower, whose juice, when applied to the eyes of a sleeping person, causes them to fall in love with the first creature they see upon waking. Oberon uses this magic to manipulate Titania, hoping to distract her and gain control over her. The flower's effects lead to a series of humorous and complicated love entanglements among the characters.
