What wilt thou do for her?”(5.1.255-257). After all the hatred consumed for Ophelia, Hamlet feels the need to show his love and care for her only after she is dead.

Daisy is then forced in the middle, to choose who she loves. Daisy ends up choosing Tom and Gatsby is left feeling hurt because he misjudged Daisy’s feelings for him.
