The speaker is Nick, the even is the informal gathering at Tom and Daisy's. Daisy's actions are signifcant because she is kissing another man in her own home.... the home she shares with her husband. We can see this action in a few different ways..... either Daisy is trying to get caught, or she is acting in a most foolhardy manner..... finding the whole idea exciting.
