Answer:

"He would never so much as look at a friend's wife"

Step-by-step explanation:

Why is this an ironic moment?

Wolfsheim is commenting on Gatsby's honor and loyalty, never realizing that Gatsby's true intention is to set up an assignation with a married woman. he doesn't know Gatsby as well as he thinks he does.
