Continuation of Act 3


Nora: (she walks out into the cold lifting her clothes into place. Mrs. line was outside)
Mrs. Linde: Nora what are you doing out here in this cold, where's Torvald?
Nora: I'm not going to be living here anymore Kristina.
Mrs. Linde: Why, what happened, did you tell him.
Nora: Yes
Mrs.Linde: And what did he say, oh Nora tell me!
Nora: He wasn't who I thought he was, hoped he was, instead I spoke to a stranger, but I am so very tired. May I stay at your home for the night Kristina? I will tell you everything in the morning.
Mrs. Linde: (She grabbed Nora's hand softly and looked at her with sympathetic eyes). Yes, of course Nora you're always welcome, especially now.
(They get into a smooth jet black Chrysler Imperial which had a familiar smell that Nora picked up on).
Nora: Um, Kristina, whose car is this if you don't mind my asking?
Mrs. Linde: oh I had been meaning to tell you....me and Krogstad have decided to try our relationship once more.
Nora: you and Krogstad! I would never have guessed it.
Mrs. Linde: oh yes, don't you remember what I had told you, there truly was a time when he would've done anything for me. We had a spark back then but family came first before passion so it had to end.
Nora: oh, to think of Krogstad in that light makes him seem like a different man.
Mrs. Linde: mhnm, I suppose so, he seemed quite willing to support me and start a new life together.
Nora: (she pondered about what Kristina had said and about Torvald). If only Torvald  had that much willingness, to give up his own pride for love.
Mrs. Linde: (Nora had trailed off after that but Kristina had understood what she meant) I understand Nora.
Nora: (puzzled) But ho..how could you understand.
Mrs. Linde: remember the man I had married with the large amount of money that I needed for my mother. It is true he left me with nothing but in reality he hadn't planned to in the first place. In the short moments that I was around you both, you and Torvald I mean, there were times his demeanor seemed less of a husband and more of a father figure in an odd way. And that's what my husband sortive did from time to time. I was less of a person and more of his personal play thing to him. And after his death in a dark way, that was my escape because I might not have left him otherwise.
Nora: (that sounded all to familiar to her and some of Torvald's words echoed within her head) That's the very reason why I am here with you...
Mrs. Linde: to start fresh correct. To brake free from so many years of a fantasy right?
Nora: ye..yes.

In Act 2 of A Dolls House, Nora has gotten into an even bigger hole. The pressure that Krogstad has put on her seems to be to much for her to handle as she becomes paranoid and anxious that he might send a letter about the whole thing or show up to their home. So in order to get rid of him, she does exactly what he asked and tried to convince her husband to keep him. But the risks were to great and Torvald had more reasons then any to fire Krogstad. And without a moment's hesitation, he sent a letter regarding of his immediate discharge right there.

Nora scared out of her mind over what her husband has done, doesn't know what to do. Soon Krogstad appears at their home, over the letter Torvald had sent him. And in return Krogstad goes through with his threat and does the same exploiting all that Nora had done in his letter. Nora does all she can to prevent her husband from seeing it. From trying to ask their family friend Dr. Rank for money, to Mrs. Linde going to see Krogstad to change his mind. But near the end of this "chapter" Nora comes to a decision that will have drastic outcomes. She chooses the only way out of this mess. Nora chooses suicide....

In Act one of "A Dolls House". Nora the wife of a banker named Torvald comes across as a reckless, and forgetful women who like to spend her husband's money for anything she desires and nothing else. Torvalds himself this that same but treats her led as a wife and more of a child. Little do we know is that she hides a dark secret that would jeopardize her easy home life. After being told that she has committed a serious crime of forgery years ago over a different matter by a not so well liked acquaintance, Nora found herself caught in an ugly situation that I don't believe she can get herself out of.

Nora is in big trouble but the real problem is how easy she could've gotten out of it. This all centered around the fact that Nora wanted to give her husband a break from overworking so she decided to travel to Capri in Italy so Torvald could recover. Clearly what could've done him some good was a good rest and relaxation at home but Nora went all out. And what's worse is she had not only borrowed the money but even lied about who she had borrowed it from. Her shear recklessness and ignorance over how this business is done had consequences Nora simply didn't see coming.

Henrik Ibsen was born on March 20, 1828 in Skien, Norway. When he was young, Ibsen didn't show any theatrical prowess that he'd later be exceptional in, but his mother being a painter, piano player and theater lover helped him down that rode. However, when Ibsen turned 8, his family fell into poverty because of troubles with his father's work, so they moved to a run down farm to make ends meet. And in later years Ibsen was able to master the theatrical art and his first work was called "Loves Comedy". It was well written but outside criticism and opposite opinions hurt Ibsen so bad, he abandoned the art and never returned home until 30 years later.
He spent slot of time visiting other countries but it was in Germany that he would create his most famous work called "A Doll's House". It questioned social ideals that Ibsen expressed boldly. Despite it having a bit of controversy, Ibsen's work did not cease. "A Doll's House" and Ibsen's later works all helped describe supposed ideals that we contribute to society. Whether they be good or bad, Ibsen expressed his opinion on how we enforce them.
