Nora, I can see by your manner that he has been begging you to put in a good word for him.
Nora.
Yes.
Helmer.
And you were to do it as if of your own accord? You were to say nothing to me of his having been here. Didn’t he suggest that too?
Nora.
Yes, Torvald; but——
Helmer.
Nora, Nora! And you could condescend to that! To speak to such a man, to make him a promise! And then to tell me an untruth about it!
Nora.
