Gregers. [Coming in.] I told you I would come and look you up.
Hialmar. But this evening? Have you left the party?
Gregers. I have left both the party and my father's house.—Good evening, Mrs. Ekdal. I don't know whether you recognise me?
Gina. Oh yes; it's not difficult to know young Mr Werle again.
Gregers. No, I am like my mother; and no doubt you remember her.
Hialmar. Left your father's house, did you say?
Gregers. Yes, I have gone to a hotel.
Hialmar. Indeed. Well, since you're here, take off your coat and sit down.
Gregers. Thanks. [He takes off his overcoat. He is now dressed in a plain grey suit of a countrified cut.
Hialmar. Here, on the sofa. Make yourself comfortable. [Gregers seats himself on the sofa; Hialmar takes a chair at the table.
