Chapter 8 begins with Nick waking up from this frightening reality that he had to warn Gatsby of something major. Gatsby recounts to Nick the times of his youth as the newly "Jay Gatsby". Daisy was the first "nice girl" he had ever known..the most desirable of them all. It excited Gatsby to know that Daisy was wanted by many; it made him feel that his life was worth something.

He was sure that it was intentional because he had seen his wife running out to the car yet the car didn't stop. Prior to her death, Wilson had warned her that "God sees everything" in reference to the eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg. Wilson knew that his wife was cheating on him but he was hoping that she would confess to her mistakes. Later that night, Wilson started on his search for the yellow car.

Just as Gatsby's dream was to build a dream life with Daisy, Wilson's goal was to avenge the death of his wife and he did..
