The correct answer is letter C. The lovers' stories all match. Hippolyta believe the lovers' story of their time in the forest because the stories of the lovers match. In the scene, Hippolyta notes, however, that if their story is not true, then it is quite strange that all of the lovers managed to narrate the events in exactly the same way.
