Alternate Ending

[ From below comes the noise of a slamming door ]
[ Nora steps outside into the night. It begins to lightly rain and the leaves and branches of the trees dance in the wind. She holds her jacket tightly around her slim body as doubt overwhelms her. ]

NORA: [talking to herself and walking with a  slouch ]: Oh no ! What have I done ? I must go back. I must return to my children and Torvald, they need me, they really do. [ lifts body and head ] No ! I mustn't ! I mustn't go back to a man who only views me as a doll wife or children that I can only offer play time. This is best for us all.

[ Nora walks with silent hesitantation down the street. Mrs. Linde runs from behind her and gently places her hand on Nora's shoulder. ]

MRS.LINDE : Nora!  I've talked to Torvald, he told me that you're leaving and I....
NORA: [picks up walking pace] :Don't even try to convince me of going back. I don't want to hear what Torvald has said. You see, he's committed an awful sin against me and staying would only mean I would be committing a sin against myself. I must do what's best for me now.
MRS. LINDE : I agree. Before you left I wanted to tell something. When Krogstad came over to talk he was willing to remove the letter from the mailbox but it was I who told him not to.
[ Nora stops walking and turns to face Mrs. Linde with a look of puzzlement ]
NORA : But how could you ? You were suppose to be my friend. You were suppose to help me. YOU  DECEIVED  ME!  YOU TOO HAVE COMMITTED A SIN AGAINST ME! I MUST FREE MYSELF FROM YOU ALL! RID MYSELF OF THOSE WHO LOOK TO RUIN MY LIFE!
[Nora begins to turn and walk away with angry. ]
MRS. LINDE: [grabs Nora's arms, holding her in place against her will. Nora's jacket free from her grib blows free in the wind]: No Nora. We have set you free. You're relationship with Torvald held to many secrets, to much disclosure. Krogstad's letter freed you of all secrets which allowed you to accept the true value of your life. If you staved Torvald's knowing of the truth any longer you would've soon selfdestucted. You must go, educate yourself, learn to work for yourself, and when's the times right return to your lost loves and share your value with them. You are incompetent now but once you experience life you'll become truly successful. Just as I did Nora.
[ Nora without a word unperturbed turns and walks away. ]
NORA: [talking to herself]: I know now what I must do. I must live for myself then return to live for Torvald and my children.
