Relling. Didn’t you hear him when I came home with him in the night?
Gina. No, I can’t say I did.
Relling. That’s well; for Molvik was abominable last night.
Gina. Is that true, Molvik?
Molvik. Let us bury in oblivion the proceedings of last night. That sort of thing has nothing to do with my better self.
Relling (to Gregers). It comes over him as if he were possessed, and then I have to go out on the spree with him. For you see Mr. Molvik is dæmonic.
Gregers. Dæmonic?
Relling. Yes, Molvik is dæmonic.
Gregers. H’m.
Relling. And dæmonic natures are not created for going through the world on steady legs. They are bound to deviate sometimes. Well, and so you still hold out at those hideous black Works up there?
