Answer:

  • Krogstad is going to try to take his job back from Mrs. Linde, and the audience knows it, but Mrs. Linde does not know that this will happen.

Explanation:

In act II, dramatic irony occurs when Nora wishes to help her companion Mrs. Linde, so she persuades her husband to fire Krogstad and give Mrs. Linde the job.

Nora's intentions fail as Krogstad then undermines to uncover Nora's forgery on the off chance that he doesn't get restored in his lost position.
