And maybe .. . maybe he’ll even get more comfortable having me around. Open up, wanna chat more, and we’ll become almost friends, or–“ Hey, ” he grumbles from behind me, “am I paying you to stand there and stare at the wall?” Yeah, too soon, Lou. Too soon.

About This Quote

In this quote from "Pulp Fiction," Jules is feeling guilty about the way he treated Mia, so he tries to make up for it by talking to her more and being nice. But she doesn't respond. In the end, Jules realizes that Mia won't change her feelings about him no matter how nice he tries to be. He also realizes that she still sees him as a father figure who is older and less attractive -- despite the fact that they're both adults.
