(Torvald walks in)
Nora: I have something to tell you, before you find out on your own.
Torvald: oh yeah? I think it’s too late for that.
Nora: What do you mean?
Torvald: I saw the letter, I read the letter, and I can’t believe you!
Nora: But Torvald...I’m...I’m...I didn’t mean to hurt you!
Torvald: I don’t believe you, you could’ve told me, and instead you let our entire marriage be based on a lie.
Torvald: You’re just as bad as Krogstad...JUST AS BAD!
Nora: Torvald, I did it for us. I did it to save you, to make you better. I couldn’t have lost you, and I didn’t know what else to do.
Torvald: You could’ve started off by telling me that would’ve been nice my selfish Nora dear.
Nora: I am not selfish. Was it selfish for a wife to help her husband when he was in need? I was saving you Torvald; it wasn’t my intention to hurt you.
Torvald: Whatever you say and Dr. Rank told me how you flirted with him the other day. Flaunting off your stockings in front of him, oh how ashamed I am!
Nora: But…but Torvald! Torvald, I didn’t flirt with him, he flirted with me. Did he tell you about his feelings for me?
Torvald: He told me how you confessed your feelings to him, and how you’ve been leading him on for a while now.
Nora: TORVALD! You believe him? How could you??!
Torvald: So now you’re lying about this too. Nora, I can’t do this anymore.
Nora: What do you mean?
Torvald: We’re DONE. It’s OVER. I’m leaving you. You lied to me once; you’ll do it again I’m sure.
Nora: Don’t think that Torvald, it wasn’t my intention to hurt you, it really wasn’t. I was saving you Torvald.
Torvald: Lying to me didn’t save me Nora, now I’m just as dead inside. I don’t know how I could ever trust you again. Therefore, maybe I should just go.
(Torvald packing up his things)
Nora: please don’t go.
Torvald: Nora, don’t look back, look forward. Recognize your mistakes, understand what you did wrong. Maybe one day we shall be together again, but for now, I need time to figure this all out.
Nora: But Torvald…
Torvald: don’t say another word, just let me go Nora. Let me go.
(Torvald walks out)
(Nora cries)
