It is later in the same day, Nora had been avoiding her children. She then has a
conversation a with her old nurse, and tells the servant that the children will not see their
mother so often. Nora does this in efforts to throwing away the life she has been living up
until this point. When Nora unpacks her Italian fisher girl costume from the box,
