The Great Gatsby / F. Scott Fitzgerald (pg 110-114)

When daisy and Tom come over to Gatsby’s party they seem out of place.  They are east eggers and are not used to west egg parties.  Daisy seems to enjoy her self some what but some of the people are too much for her to take.  Gatsby tries to entertain Daisy as best he can.  Tom is decidedly not overjoyed about the party.  Gatsby seems to kind of pick fun at him as well.  “‘Who is this Gatsby anyhow?’ demanded Tom suddenly. ‘Some big bootlegger?’”(Fitzgerald 114).  Tom seems to be very judgmental of Gatsby.  He questions how Gatsby knew Daisy.  Tom seems to be a hypocrite because he has another woman but he questions when Daisy knows someone he did not know about.
