Totally forgot that Nick meets Gatsby's father.

They’re a rotten crowd,’ I shouted across the lawn. ‘You’re
worth the whole damn bunch put together.’

Curious statement on Nick's part.

This is when Nick should have just told Gatsby to give it up and go home. The game is over.

I like Daisy a lot less now. I mean I knew she'd done it from the first read but still.

To die in a hit and run. How awful, what a terrible way to go.

Oh no, the ugly part of Gatsby's backstory is coming to light.

"‘Your wife doesn’t love you,’ said Gatsby. ‘She’s never
loved you. She loves me.’"

Finally, it comes out.

"‘I just got wised up to something funny the last two days,’
remarked Wilson. ‘That’s why I want to get away. That’s why
I been bothering you about the car."

HE KNOWS! HE KNOWS ABOUT THE AFFAIR!

Ohhhhhh! I never realized that Tom finds out Myrtle is potentially going away so I'm sure at this point he's like "well we both can't have a side piece" and I'm sure this only adds to his poor mood.

Why is Tom wanting to switch cars?
