In the begginning of this chapter he starts by describing the valley of ashes and about the train. he explains doctor eckleburg ans how he watches over the valley of ashes. He then informs us that he is going with tom to meet his mistress. So they go to the car shop where she lives with his husband and Tom talks business with him and then when he leaves for a minute they tell each toher that she needs to get on the next train so they can meet and they arrange a meeting place. it also describes her and says that she is like a bigger woman that looks very poor. then they get to NY and they meet up after the train and Mrs. wilson gets a puppy for the apartament i think that she just likes to spend Toms money. Then they go to the apartament and they start drinking and invite the neighbors over and try and get a girl there for Nick. Then they all end up getting drunk and Myrtle starts talking about daisy and tom ends up breaking her nose he says that it is disrespectful. Nick ends up just leaving i think and going to the train station and waiting for a train to come to take him home.
I think that Nick is really not into the whole drinking thing because he says that he hasn't been drunk very much. I also think that he doesn't really like the idea of having a girl come up there basically for him. also he feels very uncomfortable about being with tom and his mistress because daisy is his cousin and he doesn't feel right about being with him. You can tell that he doesn't judge because he doesn't really say anything bad about the valley of ashes. if there is anything bad said it is said by tom.
I wonder if tom will meet back up with Jordan in the next chapter
