Daisy and Jordan, on the day of Daisies bridal dinner to be married to Tom.
Tell ‘em all Daisy’s change’ her mine. Say ‘Daisy’schange’ her mine!’.’ (Daisy)
Daisy seems to be having regrets about getting married to Tom Buchanan. She is having her first drink of her life, as perhaps a coping mechanism to deal with what she cannot back out of. She is also holding a letter, presumably from Gatsby, and remembering her old love.
"She began to cry—she cried and cried. I rushed out andfound her mother’s maid and we locked the door and gother into a cold bath. She wouldn’t let go of the letter."

I think that this moment is very important to the story, as it shows that Daisy perhaps has never truly wanted to marry Tom. We can assume that she is holding a letter from Gatsby, her old love, which shows that the spark between them never died and maybe Gatsby is not entirely crazy for centering his life around seeing her. Although under the influence, Daisy wants to tell everyone that she has "changed her mind", and although it is not specified what she has changed her mind about, I think that it is about marrying Tom. The pearls that she wants returned to whoever they belong to might also be an important object to the story, perhaps representing her "belonging" to Tom.
The motif that shows up here is alcoholism. Daisy is drinking her first drink of her life, which she says to enjoy very much. I am assuming that she is using this alcohol to cope with her recieving (or rereading) of the letter she clutches, which clearly brings up painful memories for her. Alcohol again shows up in this story, as something that evokes powerful emotions and thoughts that otherwise might not come to light.
