It is obvious that Inger-Johanna is her father's favorite. He is an army captain, in charge at Gilje. When a fellow officer, Captain R�nnow, stops at the house, Captain J�ger is delighted because the guest seems so charmed by Inger-Johanna. Mrs. J�ger is a sister of the governor, and Captain R�nnow tells the J�gers that he will petition the governor's wife, with whom he is in favor, to take Inger-Johanna into their home for a year, so that she can learn the ways of society in the city. Gilje is a deserted mountain post and not at all suitable for a young lady of Inger-Johanna's obvious charms.Captain J�ger wants his beloved daughter to visit her aunt, but when he learns the cost of the new clothing required, he storms at his poor wife and cannot be quieted. Perhaps his blustering is caused by sorrow at losing his favorite daughter, although he is happy that she will have such a fine opportunity.
