Mary Warren was making the poppet doll in court. Abigail stuck a needle inside the poppet doll when Mary Warren wasn't looking. Mary Warren gave the doll to Elizabeth Proctor. Later that night, Abigail was complaining of stomach ache. She pulled out a needle and said that Elizabeth Proctor made a spell on her so she can get a stomach ache. Therefore, Elizabeth Proctor is being accused of witchcraft.
