 * Gatsby talks about the green light on Daisy's dock that he can see from his house every night, represents a metaphor of Daisy

Kathleen's Group
 * Main event - Gatsby and Daisy meet for the first time after 5 years
 * The meeting is at Nick's house - Gatsby wants the meeting to seem accidental and he wants Daisy to see his house from a distance
 * Gatsby makes a fuss - he sends a gardener to cut Nick's grass and sends flowers over, he wants it to be perfect
 * At first Gatsby is nervous, hollow - he almost leaves Nick's house before Daisy arrives
 * It is raining outside - connotations of depressing, sad - possible contrast to mood
 * At first Daisy and Gatsby are awkward with each other
 * Nick leaves them alone and goes outside into the rain - he comes back to find Gatsby smiling but Daisy in tears
 * They all go to Gatsby's house
 * Gatsby gives a tour of his house - he shows off his wealth
 * They end up in Gatsby's bedroom - Gatsby takes out all of his shirts and piles them on the bed, Daisy begins to cry; "I've never seen such beautiful shirts" - this shows how shallow she can be
 * They go out onto the balcony and look across the bay
 * Gatsby says the "green light" they can see is the end of Daisy's dock - this is the same green light as from the end of chapter one (symbolic)
 * The green light - twinkles, beautiful, far away, out-of-reack (this is also how Gatsby has seen Daisy)
 * Nick has been there the whole time - strange, however Gatsby wants him to stay
 * Theme - the green light conveys envy, money + dreams - the conflict between having a dream and the reality of it when it happens
 * Having dreamt for years (and possibly made up in his head different things), Gatsby has finally met Daisy again, however that has almost ruined it for him as he doesn't have that dream to embellish anymore - he is disappointed
