Gatsby, walking towards that group, saw a young girl, back toward him, just finishing a long, soulful oration ... "

Question #4
The man needed a cure for his hickups, originally being the glass of water. When the bartender pulled a shotgun on the man, his hickups were scared away. The bartender then realized that the man he was pointing a shotgun at was Maxwell Murder but took a shot to the head before he could do anything about it.
