Helena is jealous because she believes that Demetrius, the man Helena's father wants her to marry, is interested in Hermia. After the group goes into the woods, Puck uses a potion that leaves both Demetrius and Lysander in love with Hermia...... Helena isn't a happy camper and takes her anger out on Hermia because in Helena's eyes, Hermia always gets what she wants.
