FRIDA.
Yes.

BORKMAN. [With a cutting smile.] Does that man give parties? Can he get people to visit him?

FRIDA.
Yes, they have a great many people about them, Mrs. Wilton says.

BORKMAN.
[Vehemently.] But what sort of people? Can you tell me that?

FRIDA.
[A little nervously.] No, I really don't know. Yes, by-the-bye,
I know that young Mr. Borkman is to be there this evening.

BORKMAN.
[Taken aback.] Erhart? My son?

FRIDA.
Yes, he is going there.

BORKMAN.
How do you know that?

FRIDA.
He said so himself—an hour ago.

BORKMAN.
Is he out here to-day?
