Mary changes her testimony and turns to John Proctor because she feels immense pressure from the other girls and fears for her safety. Initially, she is caught up in the hysteria of the witch trials, but when confronted by Proctor, she recognizes the moral implications of her actions and the dangers they pose to innocent people. Ultimately, her loyalty to Proctor and her desire to do the right thing drive her to confess the truth, despite the risks involved.
