So Gatsby does have a shady side. He can just flashes a white card and everything is okay with the police? Oh, plus he has frequent meetings with the man who fixed the 1919 World Series and wears human teeth as cuff buttons! Gatsby is a very influential man, but there is nothing to hint that this is in a bad way, so far. Also, who is Gatsby always leaving to call on the telephone? Something is going on here.
Now we can finally learn what Gatsby and Jordan talked about. Gatsby just wants to impress Daisy. Gatsby just wants to show off all his current wealth to Daisy as Fitzgerald wrote, "'Gatsby bought that house so that daisy would be just across the bay (78).'" I see how this is going to get to be an interesting story. This is going to get messy. It also appears that Nick and Jordan are becoming more romantically involved. Good for them, but they are bound to get caught up in the drama that will unfold.
