After several meetings Gatsby asks Nick a favor. Embarrassed, he had a long walk around the bush, in proof of their respectability imposes medal from Montenegro, which was awarded in the war, and their photo Oxford; Finally childish says that his request will present Jordan Baker - Nick met her at a party at Gatsby, and met in the house of his sister Daisy: Jordan was her friend. The request was simple - to invite as a Daisy to his tea to, going supposedly by accident, in a neighbor, Gatsby was able to see her, Jordan said that in the fall of 1917 in Louisville, with their hometown Daisy, Daisy and Gatsby then a young lieutenant, loved each other, but were forced to leave; he was sent to Europe, and it is one and a half years she married Tom Buchanan. But before the wedding dinner thrown in the trash gift to the groom - a pearl necklace for three hundred and fifty thousand dollars, Daisy got drunk as a shoemaker, and clutched in one hand and some letter, and the other - a bottle of Sauternes, begged her friend to resign from her name groom. However, it stuck in a cold bath, gave a sniff of ammonia, put on his neck necklace, and she "got married how cute."

The meeting took place; Daisy saw his house (for Gatsby it was very important); festivities at the villa stopped and Gatsby replaced all the servants to others, "who know how to be silent," because Daisy was often at him. Gatsby also met with Tom, who showed an active rejection of himself, his home, his guests and interested in the source of his income, certainly questionable.
