At first, John Proctor can't help contradicting Reverend Parris' choice to send for Reverend Hale to examine the utilization of black magic. Reverend Parris trusts that John Proctor is a piece of a group endeavoring to usurp his capacity and promptly moves him by referencing his unflattering Sunday administration participation.
John Proctor sees through Reverend Parris directly from the begin. Parris may lecture hellfire and condemnation, however Proctor sees him for the common scoundrel that he truly is. He's so skeptical of Parris that he even will not have his kid submersed by him. Delegate's impulses end up being totally right.
