AVincent Vega (Pulp Fiction) and Victor Vega (Reservoir Dogs) are brothers.Laurence Dimmick a.k.a. Mr. White (Reservoir Dogs) and Jimmy Dimmick (Pulp Fiction) may be related somehow.Jack Scagnetti (Natural Born Killers) and Seymour Scagnetti (mentioned in Reservoir Dogs) could be related.Drexl Spivey (True Romance) and Marsellus Spivey (mentioned in Reservoir Dogs) could be related.Earl McGraw (From Dusk Till Dawn, Kill Bill Vol. 1, Grindhouse) and Edgar McGraw (From Dusk till Dawn 2, Kill Bill Vol. 1, Grindhouse) are father and son.Bill and Budd are brothers.Sgt. Donny Donowitz (Inglorious Basterds) and Lee Donowitz (True Romance) are father and son.Note that some of the names of the characters somewhat correspond with the "career choice" of the other, an example being that Drexl is a pimp and Marsellus was a diamond fence who was doing 20 years in prison. Jack Scagnetti was a popular detective and Seymour was a parole officer, etc.
QHow did the Bride know, after only briefly looking at her hands, that she had been comatose for 4 years?
AIn some cultures they teach you a way to tell many different things just by looking at the lines of the palm. So it is assumed that she read those lines to judge the amount of time she was out. Notice the close up shot of those lines before she says "4 years?"
QWho is the father of Vernita Green's daughter? She looks mixed and is almost as old as The Bride's child would've been; is it Bill's?
AWhen The Bride and Vernita are having coffee, The Bride says "Not a goddamn fucking thing you've done in the subsequent four years, including getting knocked up, is going to change that," and then later says that it would be fair of her to kill not only Vernita but her daughter and the good doctor. That said, by the timeline the movie sets up, it's actually impossible for Vernita to not have been already pregnant during the Two Pines massacre. The Bride woke up four years, six months later and Nikki was four years old in Kill Bill I. Thus, Vernita would have to have been at least three months pregnant at the time. The doctor could still have been the father (although how he got hooked up with the still-an-assassin Vernita is unknown but not entirely implausible) and it's not a plothole that The Bride would have no idea Vernita was pregnant, since they'd been out of touch.
