Revenge is a dish best served cold.
The bride is back for the final cut
Kill is love.
Back with a vengeance.
The whole thrilling tale is revealed.

Bill:
As you know, I'm quite keen on comic books. Especially the ones about superheroes. I find the whole mythology surrounding superheroes fascinating. Take my favorite superhero, Superman. Not a great comic book. Not particularly well drawn. But the mythology … the mythology is not only great, it's unique.

The Bride:
[who still has a dart in her leg] How long does this sh*t take to go into effect?!

Bill:
About two minutes, just long enough for me to finish my point. Now, a staple of the superhero mythology is there's the superhero and there's the alter ego. Batman is actually Bruce Wayne, Spider-Man is actually Peter Parker. When that character wakes up in the morning, he's Peter Parker. He has to put on a costume to become Spider-Man. And it is in that characteristic Superman stands alone. Superman didn't become Superman. Superman was born Superman. When Superman wakes up in the morning, he's Superman. His alter ego is Clark Kent. His outfit with the big red "S", that's the blanket he was wrapped in as a baby when the Kents found him. Those are his clothes. What Kent wears - the glasses, the business suit - that's the costume. That's the costume Superman wears to blend in with us. Clark Kent is how Superman views us. And what are the characteristics of Clark Kent? He's weak, he's unsure of himself, he's a coward. Clark Kent is Superman's critique on the whole human race. Sort of like Beatrix Kiddo and Mrs. Tommy Plympton.

The Bride:
Aso. The point emerges.

Bill:
You would've worn the costume of Arlene Plympton. But you were born Beatrix Kiddo. And every morning when you woke up, you'd still be Beatrix Kiddo. Oh, you can take the needle out.

The Bride:
[does so] Are you calling me a superhero?

Bill:
I'm calling you a killer! A natural born killer. You always have been, and you always will be. Moving to El Paso, working in a used record store, going to the movies with Tommy, clipping coupons. That's you … trying to disguise yourself as a worker bee. That's you trying to blend in with the hive. But you're not a worker bee. You're a renegade killer bee. And no matter how much beer you drank or barbecue you ate or how fat your ass got, nothing in the world would ever change that.

[Beatrix finds a Hattori Hanzo sword in set of Budd's golf club. She grabs it and partially unsheathes it.]

The Bride:
To my brother, Budd, the only man I ever loved. Bill.

[Elle unsheathes The Bride's sword and is shocked to see her with a Hattori Hanzo sword.]

Elle Driver:
What's that?

The Bride:
Budd's Hanzo sword.

Elle Driver:
He said, he pawned it.

The Bride:
Guess that makes him a liar now, don't it. Elle?

Elle Driver:
Bea.

The Bride:
There's something I'm curious about, just between us girls. What did you say to Pai Mei to make him snatch out your eye?

[A flashback reveals Elle getting her left eye plucked out by Pai Mei as her punishment for her insolence in insulting him. She is seen screaming and covering her empty left eye socket.]

Elle Driver:
I called him a miserable, old fool.

The Bride:
Ooh, bad idea.

Elle Driver:
You know what I did? I killed that miserable, old fool.

[The Bride is shocked as another flashback occurred with Pai Mei choking on the fish heads containing poison in them.]

Elle Driver:
How do you like the fish heads you miserable, old fool? [Narrating] I poisoned his fish heads.

Pai Mei:
(in Cantonese) Elle, you treacherous dog, I gave you my word.

Elle Driver:
And I told him, "To me the word of an old fool like you is worth less than nothing."

[Pai Mei dies, the flashback ends and Elle laughs evilly.]

Elle Driver:
That's right! I killed your master. And now I'm going to kill you too -- with your own sword, no less. Which, in the very immediate future, will become...my sword.

The Bride:
B*tch. You don't have a future.
