Pulp Fiction - Scene - I just accidentally shot Marvin
EXT. HOLLYWOOD APARTMENT BUILDING – MORNING
The Chevy Nova PROPELS itself into traffic.
INT. NOVA (MOVING) – MORNING
Jules is behind the wheel,Vincent in the passenger seat and
Marvin in the back.
VINCENT
...Ever seen that show "COPS?" I
was watchin' it once and this cop
was on it who was talkin' about this
time he got into this gun fight with
a guy in a hallway. He unloads on
this guy and he doesn't hit anything.
And these guys were in a hallway.
It's a freak, but it happens.
JULES
If you wanna play blind man, then go
walk with a Shepherd. But me, my
eyes are wide fuckin' open.
VINCENT
What the fuck does that mean?
JULES
That's it for me. For here on in,
you can consider my ass retired.
VINCENT
Jesus Christ!
JULES
Don't blaspheme!
VINCENT
Goddammit, Jules –
JULES
– I said don't do that –
VINCENT
– you're fuckin' freakin' out!
JULES
I'm tellin' Marsellus today I'm
through.
VINCENT
While you're at it, be sure to tell
'im why.
JULES
Don't worry, I will.
VINCENT
I'll bet ya ten thousand dollars, he
laughs his ass off.
JULES
I don't give a damn if he does.
Vincent turns to the backseat with the .45 casually in his
grip.
VINCENT
Marvin, what do you make of all this?
MARVIN
I don't even have an opinion.
VINCENT
C'mon, Marvin. Do you think God came
down from Heaven and stopped the
bullets?
Vincent's .45 goes BANG!
Marvin is hit in the upper chest, below the throat. He GURGLES
blood and SHAKES.
JULES
What the fuck's happening?
VINCENT
I just accidentally shot Marvin in
the throat.
JULES
Why the fuck did you do that?
VINCENT
I didn't mean to do it. I said it
was an accident.
JULES
I've seen a lot of crazy-ass shit in
my time –
VINCENT
– chill out, man, it was an accident,
okay? You hit a bump or somethin'
and the gun went off.
JULES
The car didn't hit no motherfuckin'
bump!
VINCENT
Look! I didn't mean to shoot this
son-ofa-bitch, the gun just went
off, don't ask me how!
JULES
Look at this mess! We're drivin'
around on a city street in broad
daylight –
VINCENT
– I know, I know, I wasn't thinkin'
about the splatter.
JULES
Well you better be thinkin' about it
now, motherfucker! We gotta get this
car off the road. Cops tend to notice
shit like you're driving a car
drenched in fuckin' blood.
VINCENT
Can't we just take it to a friendly
place?
JULES
This is the Valley, Vincent. Marsellus
don't got no friendly places in the
Valley.
VINCENT
Well, don't look at me, this is your
town, Jules.
Jules takes out a cellular phone and starts punching digits.
VINCENT
Who ya callin'?
JULES
A buddy of mine in Toluca Lake.
VINCENT
Where's Toluca Lake.
JULES
On the other side of the hill, by
Burbank Studios. If Jimmie's ass
ain't home, I don't know what the
fuck we're gonna go. I ain't got any
other partners in 818.
(into phone)
Jimmie! How you doin' man, it's Jules.
(pause)
Listen up man, me an' my homeboy are
in some serious shit. We're in a car
we gotta get off the road, pronto! I
need to use your garage for a couple
hours.
