While Tom is a college friend, and Daisy is a second cousin once
Sladkaya [172]

Even though this question has no options, I will provide you with an answer that will most likely be helpful.

Answer:

"Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there to have dinner with the Tom Buchanans. Daisy was my second cousin once removed, and I'd known Tom in college. And just after the war I spent two days with them in Chicago."

Explanation:

Nick is the narrator in the novel "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. He is, in a way, the link that connects all the characters. Everyone relies on Nick to keep their secrets or to help them achieve their goals.

<u>It is in Chapter 1 that Nick explains his relationship with Tom and Daisy Buchanan. This is the piece of text evidence:</u>

<u>"Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there to have dinner with the Tom Buchanans. Daisy was my second cousin once removed, and I'd known Tom in college. And just after the war I spent two days with them in Chicago."</u>

Tom is a very wealthy, prejudiced man - a brute with a lot of money - who got to marry Daisy, a beautiful yet superficial girl. Daisy is Gatsby's love interest, and Nick will get caught in between their lies and love affairs.
