The Crucible 2, 3, and 4 (copy)
Act 2:
Eight days later, InProctor'ss house
Proctor came in late, and Elizabeth thought he would go to Salem that afternoon.
Elizabeth knows Mary Warren is in Salem, and proctor scolds her for letting her go since he forbids her.
Elizabeth explains they've sent four judges out of Boston, weighty magistrates of the General Court, and at the head sits the Deputy Governor of the Province. Fourteen people are in the jail now.
Elizabeth suggests the proctor should go to Salem, to tell the truth about Elizabeth. He should go to Ezekiel Cheever since he knowsProctorr very well.
Elizabeth and Proctor start arguing because of Proctor's infidelity.
Mary Warren arrives and hands Elizabeth a small rag doll she made in court.
Mary says that 39 women are now arrested. Goody Osburn will hang for not confessing to being a witch, but not Sarah Good since she did confess.
Apparently, she made a compact with Lucifer, wrote her name in his black book with her blood, and bound herself to torment Christians till God's thrown down, and we all must worship Hell always.
In court, Sarah nearly choked them all to death with her spirit out.
Whenever Mary turned Sarah away empty-handed, she "mumbled," This "mumble," according to Sarah Good, was her reciting her commandments.
Judge Hathorne asks her to recite the commandments for proof, and she knows none.
Goody Good is pregnant near to sixty years old. They had Doctor Griggs examine her. Therefore, she is safe.
Mary is 18 and single.
Proctor rarely attends church on Sabbath Day—26 times in seventeen months. Elizabeth was sick during the winter.
Proctor has three boys, but only two have been baptized. He does not want Mr. Parris to lay his hand upon his baby. He sees no light of God upon that man.
Proctor repeated the "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image" commandment. He missed the adultery commandment.
Elizabeth does not believe that there may even be witches existing, even though the Bible speaks of them.
Giles and Francis Nurse appear because they took their wives (Martha and Rebecca). Cheever took them in his wagon.
Rebecca is charged with the supernatural murder of Goody Putnam's babies.
Mr. Walcott charged Martha Corey for the bewitching of his pigs. He bought a pig from her four/five years ago, and the pig died soon after.
Enters Cheever and Marshal Herrick (a man in his early thirties)
Cheever found the doll Mary Warren had gifted Elizabeth, which had a hidden needle inside. They connect it to when Abigail Williams was found stabbed with a needle.
Sussana Walcott saw Mary sew the doll while Abby sat by her.
Proctor ripped the warrant.
Proctor tells Mary she will go to court with him and tell him the truth.

Proctor says it was a temper and Danforth starts questioning him about the devil and his Christianity
Parris asks Proctor if he has read the Gospel, and he has, he should know Cain was an upright man and he killed Abel, contradicting his statement (does it not strike upon you that so many of these women have lived so long with such upright reputation, and—)
