1. My thoughts towards the end of the story were crazy. There was a lot of shady lies, and going behind each other's backs to make someone happy. I thought that Nora was such a money spender.
- The good news is that Torvald is the new bank manager.
- Nora raised the money by forging her father's signature on a bank loan after he passed away.
- Krogstad threatened Nora because he doesn't want to lose his job and since Nora's husband is the manager of Krogstad, he will do anything it takes to keep his job.
3. Nora is Torvald's whipped wife. She does everything and anything for Torvald. He calls her little names like a squirrell and some type of bird, i think its a "little lark." Shes money hungry and she always wants to be in control of everything but she can't. Torvald knows that she spends her money constantly and that's why she get's mad that she can't spend the money. When Torvald isn't present, she becomes shady and talks about things that she hasn't even had the guts to tell Torvald.
4. Nora's strenght is her children...Other than that, she has none. She spends her money easily, she let's her husband control her, and she lies. She is so shady that she has no strengths. It's all weaknesses.
5. Mrs. Linde might be a foil towards Nora because they are the complete opposite and have different beliefs. Nora thinks it's okay to constantly spend money and she thinks that it is okay to keep a secret from her husband, unlike Mrs. Linde who would die to have her money saved to support herself and her family. Mrs. Linde tells Nora that she should be lucky she has a husband, a husband that will work, has children. Mrs. Linde is widowed with no money and no children.
7. Fear is an obsticle that prevents people from understanding what is going on in their own lives. Or the fact that they're too wraped up into their ownselves to even think about their significant other. In Nora's case, she did something that most women would do if their husbands were dying. She took money out of the bank, forgeing her father's signature. She doesn't seem to think that spending money is a problem, but her husband does and she doesn't see why. She could be saving money for her children instead of spending it on foolish junk.
