Chapter 9

Gatsby dies and Nick decides to take control of setting up the funeral. Nick called everyone he knew that would possibly want to come but nobody wanted to come. Not even his "love" Daisy. The only people who show up are Jordan, Gatby's father, and a few of Gatsby's servents and Nick himself. Mr. Wilson says that Tom told him where Gatsby was and that he would have shot Tom as well if he hadn't told him where Gatsby was. Nick ends up not being with Jordan after she eventually tells him she is engaged to another man. Are Tom and Daisy still together? Did Daisy really love Gatsby? Why didn't Jordan want to be with Nick?

Chapter 8

Mr. Wilson is sitting in his office when some men stick around to confront him about his wife getting killed. He is sitting there not talking and stunned. He then finally starts talking about revenge and finding out who did it. When the men left and he was alone, he left to go to West Egg. Wilson knows that it was Gatsby. Gatsby decides to go swimming in his pool that he doesn't use very often and tells the butler if he needs something to come and get him. When Nick goes to check on Gatsby after a couple of hours, he finds him dead laying face down in the pool. Wilson had shot him.

Chapter 7

This chapter begins with Gatsby calling off all of his parties in order to better please Daisy. He even fires his servents so that gossip doesn't continue to spread. Nick drives over to the Bucannans for lunch and Gatsby and Jordan are there as well along with Daisy and Tom. Tom now knows that Daisy and Gatsby are in love. They then all go to New York together and go to a hotel to freshen up since it is so hot. Tom and Gatsby then argue about who is in love and who is not in love and keep arguing for a good while. They then drive back and on the way back they discover a dead body laying on the road. It turns out that it is Myrtle, Tom's girlfriend. She has been killed in a hit and run accident. When they go back to the Buccanans Nick finds Gatsby spying outside the house and Gatsby tells Nick that it was Daisy who accidentially hit Myrlte.

Chapter 6

At the beginning of the chapter I am kinda confused about what happens. But a reporter comes to Gatsby's house asking about rumors and if they are ture. He says that his real name is James Gatz and he got his name from a man who he met when he worked at lake supperior. He warned Dan Cody, a rich old man, that a big storm was coming so his boat wouldn't get recked. Cody hires Gatsby as his supervisor since he was a heavy alcholic and he is supposed to watch him while he is drunk. Dan Cody then dies and he gives Gatsby 25,000 dollars. Nick doesn't see Gatsby for weeks. Then one day he comes to visit and Tom and Daisy and Mr. and Mrs. Sloane come over to Nicks as well. The next party Gatsby has Dasiy and Tom come and Tom just comes because he wants to see and keep a watch out for Gatsby and Daisy. The chapter ends with Gatsby wishing he could change the past and wanting Daisy to get a divorce and wishing things were the same like they were back when he loved her. Will Tom become more suspicious and eventually hurt Gatsby in some way? Will Daisy get a divorce with Tom to be with Gatsby?

Chapter 5

At the beginning of the chapter, Nick comes home but then realizes the the Gatsby's house is really lit up. He is at first afraid that it is on fire. Gatsby scares him as he walks onto Nicks lawn as he is walking to his door. This is when Gatsby asks Nick if he wants to go to Coney Island and Nick says that it is too late. He then asks Nick if he wants to go swimming, Nick says no. I think Gatsby is just trying to get himself and Nick alone doing something for a while so that he can convince Nick to go through with his plan to get Daisy to meet up with him at the party. He goes through with the plan but during the get together it starts to rain and then Gatsby becomes very nervous. Nick invites Daisy over and it seems to be awkward but when Nick comes back after leaving them alone they are laughing and having fun. Will Daisy and Gatsby get back together? Will Daisy cheat on Tom?

Chapter 4

Nick and Gatsby then go to lunch the next afternoon where Gatsby tells him stories about the great things that he has done. The stories, Nick finds out from Tom, are all a lie. After lunch in the city, Jordan explains what her meeting with Gatsby was about. Gatsby wants Jordan to convince Nick to get Daisy to have a reunion with Gatsby. Daisy and Gatsby were in love during the war and Gatsby wants to see her again to see if there feelings are still the same. Since Daisy has been married to Tom she has not cheated on him but he has cheated on her. Therefore Gatsby wants Jordan to get Nick to have a get together so that Gatsby can see if they still have feelings for each other. If Daisy knows she is being cheated on, why doesn't she do something about it?

Chapter 3

In chapter 3 Nick was at the house and a man from Gatby's house came over with an invitation to a party at his house that night. He decides to accept the invitation. He goes to the party and meets up with his friend Jordan since she is the only one there that he knows. He and Jordan observe all the people that are at the party and then decide to go outside to where all of the entertainment is taking place. Nick is sitting there when a man tells him that he looks familiar and that man happened to be Gatsby. Mr. Gatsby invites Nick to breakfast the next morning. There talk was enentually interrupted by a phone call for Mr. Gatsby. At the end of this chapter Nick talks about how honest he is and how dishonest Jordan is. And even though they have those differences, he still has a great attraction for her. Will Nick and Jordan eventually be together?
