Hialmar.

Yes. Why?

Gregers.

Oh, because I may perhaps look in on you later.

Hialmar.

No, you mustn’t do that. You must not come to my home. Mine is a melancholy abode, Gregers; especially after a splendid banquet like this. We can always arrange to meet somewhere in the town.

Mrs. Sörby.

[Who has quietly approached.] Are you going, Ekdal?

Hialmar.

Yes.
