Book summary as I vaguely remember any detail of it:
Rich guy with new money did bad things and never got caught until the day he ran over someone.
It was like being rich and driving a Tesla. The only difference was that he didn't have the car in self driving mode because there was no such thing back then.
Wasn't it someone else driving his car? Also he still wasn't caught. He was killed the very next day.
Ah yeah, I forgot that little detail. It was a stabbing or a gun? Something like that right?
Yes a shooting. I saw the movie so I remember the pool scene
Ah okay ๐
Spoilers! Lol
That's a good bet
You just ruined the movie!!!! ๐
Who did he blame without the Tesla self driving mode?
Wasn't it the narrator who got blamed or the guy driving with him?
I'm not sure. Something definitely happened though. I think?
Spoilers lol but clearing it up.
Gatsby was in the car but his girlfriend was driving while emotionally distraught. It was actually Gatsbys car but Gatsbys girlfriend's husband Tom had made his mistress think it was his car to impress her and make her husband feel bad. The mistress thought the car coming was Tom coming to pick her up to run away together so she ran out in the road and was hit. The husband of the mistress went crazy and was made to think by Tom that it was Gatsby driving and having an affair with his wife and not him. So the husband walked over and shot Gatsby as he was finally using his swimming pool. Bit confusing haha
Omfg i got through the first 1.5 sentences and gave up. Holy fuck that was boring.
