* AdaptationalHeroism: Tom is a horrible person that hits Myrtle once but it's also fairly clear he really is THAT dumb and believes Gatsby is a monster, which mitigates some of his actions towards him. He also seems genuinely fond of Nick, his wife, and family despite being a pompous jerk. As a result, he comes off as mostly just spoiled and dim versus an ignorant monster. [[spoiler: It's clearly Daisy who is the more evil of the two.]]
