You make an astute observation about Vincent. Yes, his interpretation of the foot massage is somewhat predictable, underscoring, I think, the difference between him and Jules. Vincent does seem to lack insight throughout the whole narrative and it's often Jules who must act as a kind of an older sibling and help or scold him. Jules' insight is much more profound, especially in his final scene. He gives three (or was it four?) varying interpretations of the Biblical quotation he often recites when "poppin' a cap" in someone. Scott R.
