In Ch.8 Wilson has an epiphany after the tragic death of his wife while looking at the billboard of Dr. T.J. Eckleberg he believes that he is God. Wilson is an a state of shock when he comes to this conclusion and is just rambling on a bout a whole bunch of different topics and situations. He says that the Dr. is god because he is overseeing the valley so that makes him all seeing and all knowing just like god is so to Wilson that rationalizes his outrageous statement. his new outllok at life gives him only one option only one thing that he can do and this is to seek revenge which he will od in Ch. 9.

This yellow car with the front end damage represents the damage that would have been caused by Myrtle hitting the car when Daisy ran her down on her way through the valley of the ashes after a long day in New York City. after Myrtle is ran down nick comes across the scene some time later and by then they had identified the car that had been used and he realizes that it was Gatsby's car that had been used to do this so he assumes that it was Gatsby driving it at the time when in fact it was Daisy. Nick fears that Mr. Wilson will recognize the car from earlier and the day and realize that it was Gatsby who ran down his beloved wife. so with the incertainty of how and why Myrtle was hit by the car remains a mystery.

I used a picture of Two Face from Batman because of the unveiling of the fact that Jay Gatsby was once known as James Gatz. This is important because it shows the internal conflict that Gatsby must have had to go through to have to come to the point where he felt he had to change his name to be able to change his identity.G atsby never did allow himself to believe that his family was simple farm folk so he imagined them as something more to hide the fact that he was nothing but that makes what he has accomplished all the more extraordinary.

These pictures are good pictures to use because in chapter 5 the weather was an important symbol used to show the emotions that Gatsby is going through mainly over his situation with Daisy and his extreme anxiety. When Gatsby is feeling doubtful and extremely fear full of rejection from Daisy then the weather is reflected by the pouring rain. So then, hence when Gatsby is happy once he and Daisy hit it off then the sunshine breaking through the storm reflects the feeling of happiness that both the characters feel for each other. Therefore, the importance of weather was a prevalent symbolism used in Ch. 5
