What an"Expected" Ending

Throughout the novel, Nora remained to be a difficult women. But slowly at the end Torvald seemed to be the problem and this was realized. When Krogstad's letter was finally read by Torvald, he began to freak out on Nora and wanting to disown her calling her "a weak helpless child". Once Torvald received the second letter saying Krogstad turned a new leaf and would forget the whole thing, the strange thing is that Torvald was suddenly happy again seeing that his career was saved? Torvald changed his mood from furious to carefree?
At that moment Nora finally realized her problem. Before in the story she was saying how you can want to be with someone, but stay with the one you love. She thought she loved Torvald, but only realized she was letting him play her just like "A Doll's House". Just like her father was doing to her as a child, she would always try to please them in any way. She finally knew what to do, she left her home and searched for her own life. I wonder what she will discover on this journey. Become a successful women and realize she is strong, or can't find the strength and admit Torvald was right about her being a helpless child?
