After the accident, what does Nick see when he goes up to Tom and Daisy's house that Gatsby does not see?

Answer: Nick sees Tom and Daisy eating together and talking.

Explanation:

<em>In Chapter 7</em>, Tom's mistress, Myrtle, dies when hit by a car that Daisy was driving.  Although Gatsby takes the blame for the accident, this ruins the romantic relationship between Gatsby and Daisy, as they now share this terrible secret.

Later on, Nick encounters Gatsby hidden in the bushes near Daisy's house. Gatsby is concerned for her, and wants to make sure that Tom did not hurt her. Nick voluntarily goes to check on her, and finds Daisy and Tom eating together at the kitchen table and talking.

What does the scene that Nick witnesses suggest?

Answer: It suggests that Tom and Daisy were plotting against Gatsby, and trying to figure out how to get away with murder.

Explanation:

In his novel, F. Scott Fitzgerald describes <em>Gatsby's vain hope that Daisy and him would eventually end up together.</em>

Gatsby, unaware of the fact that Daisy has changed since the two of them were together, fails to realize that Tom and her are dangerous people. Daisy would rather live with a man she does not love, provided she has a large house and a lot of money, than run away with a man she loves. She is aware that Tom can not only provide her financial security, but will protect her in times of needs, such as when she kills an innocent woman. Tom and Daisy purposely decide to blame Gatsby for Myrtle's death, and her husband kills him.

Gatsby, as Nick describes him, believes in green light and always sees the best in people. His poor judgement results in his tragic death.
