From scene 7 till the end of the play, the dynamics in the play change drastically. In scene 7, the everyday life of the characters continues, and nothing seems to be drastically wrong on the surface. This transitions to the state at the end of the play where Blanche is being taken away to an insane asylum and Stanley and Stella's marriage is threateningly weak. What causes this drastic change in the events of the play is that Stanley enacts his attack on Blanche. Before these scenes, there is tension between Blanche and Stanley, but there was nothing to push the conflict to another level. Then, Stanley finds evidence about Blanches past, and he is able to attack her with this information. This throws the household into a state of turmoil as Stanley tries to get rid of Blanche, which causes harm to both Blanche and Stella. Stanley also tells Mitch about what he found out about Blanche, which causes the relationship between Mitch and Blanche to decline. In these scenes, on a general level, Blanche declines until she is reduced to a lost, delirious girl.
