Gatsby chapter 2 summary?

Nick Carraway describes the valley of ashes, which is an industrial wasteland of Queens that's in between West Egg and Manhattan. In the same place, there's a giant billboard advertisement of Dr. T. J. Eckleburg, either an ophthalmologist or an optometrist. Tom Buchanan's mistress, Myrtle Wilson lives in this "ash heaps" area. One day, Nick decides to take the train to Manhattan with Tom, and Tom makes a sudden stop to meet Myrtle. They go to George Wilson's garage, and Myrtle Wilson, George's wife, comes down to the garage. Tom makes a plan to meet her in Manhattan. Once he and Nick leave, he explains to Nick that George is unaware of Myrtle's infidelity. Myrtle boards the same train as Nick and Tom, but she gets into a different car in order to be discreet and not bring any unnecessary attention to themselves. On a whim, Myrtle decides she wants a dog, and Tom buys her a mutt. Nick tries to leave, but Tom and Myrtle insist that he stay with them in their apartment. Nick gets drunk for what he claims is the second time in his life, so his recollection is hazy. Myrtle's sister Catherine, a photographer named McKee, and his wife come over. Catherine tells Nick about the party she went to over at Gatsby's house. She also claims that Gatsby's so rich because he's the cousin of Kaiser Wilhelm. She also tells Nick that both Tom and Myrtle hate who they're married to. She thinks they should get divorced and marry each other instead. According to Catherine, they haven't gotten a divorce because Daisy is catholic. Nick, being Daisy's cousin, knows that Daisy isn't catholic. This was obviously a lie that was probably made by Tom. Nick keeps trying to leave, but fails. A while later, Tom and Myrtle get into an argument about Daisy, and Tom hits her so hard that he breaks her nose. Tom's violent, arrogant nature becomes more apparent. Nick finally manages to leave, and he goes home with McKee. Then, he somehow ends up at the train station.
