Hialmar. I hope there will; for to-morrow I am going to set to work in real earnest.
Hedvig. To-morrow! Don't you remember what day it is to-morrow?
Hialmar. Oh yes, by-the-bye. Well, the day after, then. Henceforth I mean to do everything myself; I shall take all the work into my own hands.
Gina. Why, what can be the good of that, Ekdal? It'll only make your life a burden to you. I can manage the photography all right; and you can go on working at your invention.
Hedvig. And think of the wild duck, father,—and all the hens and rabbits and!
Hialmar. Don't talk to me of all that trash! From to-morrow I will never set foot in the garret again.
Hedvig. Oh but, father, you promised that we should have a little party
Hialmar. H'm, true. Well then, from the day after tomorrow. I should almost like to wring that cursëd wild duck's neck!
Hedvig. [Shrieks.] The wild duck!
