Mrs. Solness. There's no occasion.—Well then, doctor, you will come back later on, and have a cup of tea with us?

Mrs. Solness. Thank you.

Solness. Are you in a hurry, doctor?
Dr. Herdal. No, not at all.
Solness. May I have a little chat with you?
Dr. Herdal. With the greatest of pleasure.
Solness. Then let us sit down. [He motions the doctor to take the rocking-chair, and sits down himself in the arm-chair. Looks searchingly at him.] Tell me—did you notice anything odd about Aline?
Dr. Herdal. Do you mean just now, when she was here?
Solness. Yes, in her manner to me. Did you notice anything?
