well this chapter was more about gatsby's past. it kind of explains how he obtained his money. he knew a guy named dan cody who when he died, left all his money to gatsby. but gatsby's mistress (whats a mistress?) wouldnt let him have it or something. i thought that was stupid for two reasons. One, i dont know who she is and why she decides that gatsby cant have free money. Two if somebody dies and wants you to have something of theres, nobody should get in the way of you getting it. shes being selfish.
