What if Zed told the hard pipe hitting níggérs about him raping macellus


Marcellus obviously wouldn't want anyone to know about him being raped but what if Zed told marcellus' men that the reason he is being tortured is because he raped marcellus. If I was Zed and I was gonna be getting badly tortured anyway, I would tell them just to fúck marcellus over

If you want to be realistic there's no way Butch lets him live. Butch was entirely responsible for what happened to him. There was no reason for Butch to trust Wallace standing behind him with a shotgun.

Yes but butch has just saved his life when he could of easily left but instead he risked his own life to save marsellus

I think it would be wrong to assume that someone like Marcellus would have any kind of sense of honor.

The "what would Paul do" angle hadn't occurred to me. Seems to be stretching it a bit far for a work of fiction --- but maybe not I don't know. To say Butch was considering any of that would be a stretch for sure.

Idk if anyone could have a conversation after getting their package blown to bits by a shotgun.

But if Butch had just simply left as he originally intended, Marsellus would not have been freed to blow off Zed's package. Most likely Zed and Maynard would have eventually killed Marsellus.

Every time I watch that scene I think to myself....what if Marsellus gets so involved with torturing Zed he forgets to tell his people that the contract on Butch is off. I always play out a little scene in my head of Butch running in to a hit man a few minutes after leaving the shop and trying to explain that him and Marsellus are cool, and the hit man just looking at him and telling Butch that he has heard that same story each time he has to kill someone . But that's just me... I guess I got to much free time on my hands

That has occurred to me, although Zed may be past that kind of communication with his junk no longer firmly attached. In the original script, after Butch departs, Marcellus goes to a phone in the cellar, punches a few numbers and tells "the Wolf" that he has a "situation". The Wolf would probably organise Zed's demise as painfully as possible and be discreet about it - even if Zed did come up with a disclosure or two the Wolf might well ignore it and not spread gossip, though pipe hitting n****** might have a word around the campfire.
