Act 2

     Since my class has start to read THE DOLL'S HOUSE we all find out that jauntily little Nora likes to have and spend money. That was just a highlight. First Mrs. Linde think Nora borrowed the money from Dr. Rank because he is rich and Nora always talk about a secret admirer that she imagine brings her money. But instead Nora borrowed the money from Krogstad. Krogstad want back his position at the bank so he is blacking Nora to tell Helmer everything. Krogstad came back and he ask Nora if she was thinking of running away or do something to herself, she said yes and ask him how did he know, he said he once tried it but didn't had the carriage to do that. Krogstad said "besides, it would have been a very stupid thing to do. You've only got just one domestic storm to go through, then..... I have a letter to your husband in my pocket telling him everything gently". (Ibsen 211) 
     Mrs.. Linde was going to talk to Krogstad to convinced him to take back the letter but he was out of town. From act 1 to now Nora is not the same Nora but instead she had change, her ways had grow, she change from whom she was, also Helmer is two different person when he is sober and one when he is drunk, he give different expression and say things totally different as if he is the boss or the best Mrs. Linde from the other hand act in so many different way helping herself at the time helping her own self. I the act Krogstad also changes because of Mrs. Linde. Because they were pasted lovers and Mrs. Linde had to leave to take care of her family. After everything had happened comes Dr. Rank to meet Helmer but Nora say you must not go in to Helmer yet, they sit in the dark and Dr. Rank reveals his love to Nora and explain to her what he means when the light comes in too that was nothing to him. "Some  will love one but some will rather be with one"(Ibsen 194) I think he is a man NOT Helmer because only think of Nora as a bride. HOW WRIDE?
   But Nora had decided to committed suicide, when she were dancing the tarantella she say she is dancing for her life. After they done practice she ask the maid to get them Champaign  and some macaroons because she know she was going to kill her self, only she knows......... DO YOU REALLY THINK NORA WILL  COMMIT SUICIDE???

I Think that it was kind of a summary of act II but I agreed with what you said about what happened.

I think Nora will commit suicide, because she may feel there is no other way out. It seems like theres no other escape. Maybe she wont have another chance to escape her lies, and physically leave the house, other than to kill herself.
