I laugh out loud every time Mr. Blonde pulls out the gas can. His cutting off the ear really isn’t the main point of the scene. What the ear thing tells you is that, yes, Mr. Blonde really will burn the cop and that, yes, they’re gonna show it. So the tension that builds in the audience on the first viewing is awesome, and the relief that you get when Mr. Orange blows him away is fabulous. I recently watched the movie with my dad and step-mom, and when Mr. Orange started shooting, she said, “Thank God”.

We get that glimpse of a true psychopath. I just love how Blonde is such good friends with Nice Guy Eddy and Joe; and then he is a psychopath. Small things like that add to the scene, I think.
