7:17 So when Mia snorts the Heroin, she thinks that it's coke because of the container it was in. Coke is known to come in a baggie. Heroine is known to come in to balloons for this reason. When the dealer says "I'm out of balloons, is a baggie okay?", that is something that he needed to clarify with Vincent because that is how people differentiate coke and heroin they look very identical in powder form. With Mia not knowing this, she OD'd. It took me years to realize this and is one of the greatest attentions to detail I've ever seen...Blows my mind till this day. I'm requesting 3 sins off.

The reason Vincent didn't hear Butch is because...well he did hear Butch. Marcellus lost a lot of money on Butches fight and wanted to cap him personally. When they found out Butch wasn't at his apartment they waited for him to come back, eventually they got hungry Marcellus left his Mac-10 in the apartment to go get donuts. Vincent had to use the bathroom, while in the bathroom he heard Butch come back, but he assumed it was Marcellus with the donuts. He walked out eager for a sugary snack but instead got blasted by the guy he was supposed to kill.

@@Cree8Ball Maybe Vincent could have a hidden gun or maybe the gun in the kitchen belongs to him. But the fact is Vincent don´t alert about the situation and when he open the door, Butch was already aiming to him with the mac-10 (or uzi) In other words, Vincent "was already dead" (no chance to escape or try to counter-attack Butch)

[@matt.cantin]

Exactly

[@thecaptainsunchained]

Interesting.

[@Raz.C]

Not only that, but I feel that people have forgotten this - Back then, ALL films had about 3 minutes worth of credits, that HAD to be shown within the first 5 minutes of a film (might have been the first 10 minutes), according to union/ S.A.G. rules/ whatever. Some movies were like Pulp Fiction, where you'd get a bit of the film, them 3 minutes of credits, then the rest of the film, but most were straight into the 3 or 4 minutes of credits, followed by the film. Nowadays, of course, we just go straight into the films and the credits are either an afterthought, or are sometimes displayed during the opening scenes. Because of this, because we now get straight into the action, without having to endure minutes of credits, for people we don't know, doing jobs we don't understand, because we no longer have to put up with this shit, a LOT of people have forgotten that it used to be the standard to have to watch the credits before the movie.

Totally dig that Marsellus let Butch go. He knew what Butch did to come back and that Butch was home free if he just left. Coming back was a purely selfless act that did nothing but create negatives for a guy who was a hated enemy. And saved his life. Marsellus got a heap of character exposition there by recognizing that and letting him leave (and Marsellus was saved from certain death several times in the last few minutes so hes probably just grateful it ended with him alive. Also there is NO doubt he had other things on his mind, all he wanted to do was concentrate on the horrible upcoming torture)

I in 89-91 I lived in the apartment building that the Brett seen was shot in, and I can assure you that someone absolutely could have gotten shot there & no one called the cops, LOL. 1. It was in the middle of Hollywood 2. It was in a REALLY SKETCHY area in the middle of Hollywood (my roommates BF was murdered around the corner from our building, my old janky car was stolen by a homeless person 2 weeks after I moved in) 3. The building had started as a luxury hotel built at the turn of the 20th century & was built to completely different standards than buildings of today. The lathe & plaster over brick walls were so thick & sturdy as to be nearly soundproof. I could play LOUD punk rock music all night long & never bother my neighbors. You couldn’t hear it through the floors/ceiling or outside my apartment unless you were standing in the hall directly outside my front door. It was also RIGHT next to a freeway off-ramp that was LOUD & busy 24 hrs a day. Gunshots could easily go unheard in that environment. 4. It was an old, rundown, dirty, cheap AF building managed by a skeezy creepy alcoholic 2nd rate Boss Hogg impersonator, filled with a random eclectic assortment of very low income goths, punks, bikers, seniors, undocumented immigrants, people on disability, addicts, mentally ill, LGBTQ couples etc who most likely wouldn’t want to get involved with the bigoted a-holes at LAPD if they didn’t absolutely have to…and as someone who was regularly profiled, targeted, harassed, even assaulted back then by LA & OC PD’s simply because I looked wEiRd & listening to anti-authoritarian music, I don’t fucking blame them. That building in that city in that particular moment in time that the movie is both being filmed and taking place, it’s not at all implausible that shots would go unheard or ignored.

[@glndreamer]

Wow that’s quite the story! When he asked why no one called the cops I immediately thought “because this is a sketchy apartment building and the likelihood that almost every other unit is ALSO doing some sketchy shit is quite high. And people doing sketchy shit (or as you said, people who are undocumented immigrants, drug addicts, mentally ill, etc) don’t exactly want the cops coming around”. (And if you take into consideration that this was, assuming that the movie was set around the time it came out, LA in the 90s, ESPECIALLY NOT THE LAPD) Not to mention I’d bet Marsellus knew this was the case and that’s why he was ok sending them there.

Binks tells Qui-Gon that because his life was saved by him, his gods demand that Qui-Gon now pretty much owns Jar Jar. Later there is a sin added, for Qui-Gon knowing Gungan law, using what he was told by Jar Jar, (about the gods) when he is bartering for Jar Jar's life.

Wanna know what's hilarious is that Marsecelluss had the security system so when Butch goes to get his watch back in the gold watch that Vincent died so I'm wondering if Marsecelluss was going to kill Vincent after dealing with Butch if they had been successful with killing Butch since Marsecelluss already had the evidence and the fact that Mia said they would both be dead if he found out. And isn't it suspicious that Marsecelluss would want to accompany Vincent for the job to kill Butch. Meaning that Vincent was a deadman and Mia is going to die. But this would be THE PERFECT SET UP FOR A PULP FICTION SEQUEL. With Mia realizing this and begging Jules to help her.

Mia, being a seasoned cokehead, saw the baggie and it's not far-fetched to assume the contents were cocaine. 2.) Marcellus was out getting coffee and doughnuts, and Vince was taking a shit (notably his 2nd of the film).

In that moment, the toaster becomes the "clock" (/watch/deus-ex-machina) that decides which of them will live or die--10 seconds earlier and Vincent would have been alerted that someone there and come out with his .45 drawn, ready to deal business.

[@dennydowling2169]

Vincent and Jules do not search the apartment because Marvin works for Marcellus and he should have warned them. At the trunk Vincent asks Jules how many are in the apartment. Jules says there are three or four. Vincent asks if that includes their guy to which Jules says he is not sure. This is also why the timing of the confrontation is so important, they told Marvin precisely when they would be there. After the "fourth man" is killed they ask Marvin when he planned on telling them about him (since he is supposed to be on their team.) That's also why they don't kill Marvin; they know him (and probably have a few more questions to ask him later about not giving up the fourth man.) There was no hole in the car's rear window in the scene where Marvin was shot. It seems the bullet either lodged in his skull or ricocheted in some other direction so it is not an error for it not to be there later in the film. The Gold Watch story is necessary because it is one of three separate stories QT had written which he combined into the script of "Pulp Fiction". He liked all of them and had to find a way to interweave the characters and events into the same film, and I for one thoroughly enjoy the result. Judging by the window Butch uses as an exit after the boxing match I'm thinking 'old building with no air conditioning', one explanation for his sweat. Butch may also be sweating because he is nervous, knowing he is not going to throw the fight and will be on the run. He didn't take the watch to the match because he feels that low-lifes hanging around there might steal it. He did tell Fabienne to bring it, but she's a bit of an airhead and it slipped her mind. She may have been confused as to its location as she states that it was in the drawer of the nightstand (an apparently made-up story to cover her error.) Marcellus may have gone with Vicent because, in this case, he really wanted personal revenge and did not want give it out like some everyday job that he would normally delegate to others. It's not that big of a coincidence that their paths cross as Butch did not really park close to his apartment when he went to get the watch. It's also why Vincent does not think anything about the noise in the kitchen since he thinks it is Marcellus returning with the donuts. Butch makes pop tarts because he had to skip breakfast with Fabienne and needs to eat something quick since he is on a tight schedule. I did not see the movie in a theater and have only watched it on a free movie on-demand channel that cut some scenes I have seen on KZbin. Anyway, I have seen a clip from one reactor to this movie that shows the gimp indicating to Butch that he is destined to be the next gimp, at least that is what I surmised. That is reason enough to have him in the story. I do not know if that is in the theatrical version of the film or if it is in a director's cut. I don't know why nobody came into the restaurant during the robbery; that has always bugged me. I do know why they didn't leave: The events going on around them were too intriguing to not keep watching, you know, like everyone in the restaurant felt they were part of a great movie or something and wanted to see how it turned out.

Another reason the gold watch story is important is that his father's experience in a POW camp prompts Butch to think of Marsellus as a fellow prisoner when they're in the pawn shop, which is why he goes back to save him. Also his picking a samurai sword references both his code of honour and the Asia connection.

idk why 🤷🏾‍♂️ but I really ENJOY the sound that’s made when a sin point is taken away

They actually DON'T win the dance competition. The trophy is stolen, off screen, in the same way that Butch keys Vincent's car, off screen.

urban legend, tarantino said it's just a jack rabbit slims ad

The scene where Vincent gets shot, the uzi is Marcellus’s and he went out to get coffee and donuts explaining why he would just leave it there and that Vincent doesn’t get worried if he hears anything that butch does because he probably thinks it’s Marcellus

As a life-long Tennessean, I really appreciate you sinning the timezone thingy.

The blueberry comment line was a hint that Butch's girlfriend was pregnant. Earlier she wanted to tell Butch she was pregnant but he was sleeping.
