Quote 1

When he walked in on Dominique plying her trade with the fat captain of a keelboat, the young man fell into a rage. He stabbed them both before fleeing into the streets. (1.5.11)

Like Glass, Fitzgerald is also a bit revenge-happy, which he further proves by stabbing a guy who beats him at poker at the end of the novel.
