Throughout The Great Gatsby, lies are told left and right. And even though we as the audience know whats going on, some of the characters are clueless or don't want to call attention to it. If the characters knew exactly when the others lied, i feel like the outcome of many deaths and ruined relationships would of shifted for the better and made everyone come together and be friends with each other. Myrtle would of possibly still been alive if Mr. Wilson knew exactly what was going on between her and tom. Maybe he would of ended things on a better term and she wouldn't have had to run away from him, causing her death. Also, even though Daisy knew about Tom cheating, i feel like she would of left him if she 100% knew he was lying.
