Look More At Gatsby
... If you scored each character in Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby”, on a scale from one to ten, Nick would prevail above all the other characters with a ten. ... Gatsby asks “What’s your opinion of me anyhow”, Nick didn’t even have to reply, because he hadn’t heard enough about Gatsby or associated with him enough to make a proper evaluation. ... Gatsby has a good habit of staying cool calm and collected when building a response or reaction to something, rather than blurting it aloud. For instance, in the hotel suite in New York City, when Tom confronts Gatsby about not being an Oxford man and attempts to degrade Gatsby, Gatsby sits back and lets Tom make a fool out of himself before he confidently and calmly explains that he went there on a deal provided by the military after the armistice. This renews a connection between Nick and Gatsby at this point in the book.
