In addition to “what’s in the briefcase?,” one element that’s been heavily speculated about in the 30 years since the film’s release is the reason, and meaning, of a few continuity flubs: bullet holes that appear behind Vincent and Jules before they’re shot at by Alexis Arquette’s Fourth Man, and a few changed words in the dialogue spoken by Amanda Plummer’s Honey Bunny as they rob the coffee shop.
