The narrator Nick Carraway mentioned how he met Tom Buchanan's mistress in Chapter 2. Tom has been married to Daisy for several years now and his mistress Myrtle is also married to George Wilson. When Tom took Nick to meet Myrtle, it was more of a forced invitation rather than a request. Nick recalls how Tom was <em>"taking hold of [his] elbow literally forced [him] from the car."</em> Nick seems angry about the whole thing, <em>"The supercilious assumption was that on Sunday afternoon I had nothing better to do."</em>
