It was a cold stormy night; proctor will not say a word to Abigail, who came to him before she left. Proctor then yells at her and she yells back and wants him to go with her. They then start kissing. Proctor takes off with her to Baltimore. Abigail and proctor leave everyone in Salem by surprise. Proctor just wanted to get away from all of the hearings and hangings. Proctor is a sad man with no meaning to his life right now (He feels that way). Abigail took advantage of him. Abigail sees opportunity in Baltimore that she does not see here in Salem. She feels like she messed up here, and wants to start over.
Salem in 1867, two years after Abigail and proctor leave. Salem is back to its normal puritan ways. Most everyone has forgotten about the witchcraft trials, they are also trying to move on from it. Elizabeth never got hung, the nurse never got hung. Salem is a much better place with out them in the town actually. Mostly do to Abigail miss doings. She was a horrible girl. When she left most people were sad and mad. But they did not know how bad she really was. She does not know what to do, and is very selfish. She only thought for herself. Around this town she is hated very much and there are signs all over having her wanted. For proctor he is still beloved and hated at the same time. Some people love him others hate him. He betrayed everyone in this town and it is not right. He was a big figure to this town. Little kids looked up to him. Now his name is not as good as it once was here in Salem. Her and him should be prosecuted, there wrong doings to this town is horrible. They created fools out of this town. Abigail lies to everyone, her making those little girls follow her. Proctor having an affair with an 11 year old is just disgusting. His wife was so lovely and nice and gave him so many chances he threw it all away and left. He has no right to do what he did. In the end Salem is better off without the both of them.
Baltimore in 1867, Baltimore is a great place to go there are many opportunities. This is the place where Abigail and proctor sneak away too. You can do many things here, and start over. That is why proctor and Abigail moved here. Proctor is known a successful bar owner and everyone loves his bars. He also brews his own beers. After all he is doing better in Baltimore. As for Abigail she is failing at moving and succeeding. Actually proctor left her because she could not do Anything good with her life. She is now a prostitute! Its karma for leaving what she left in Salem, and doing what she did .
