Pulp Fiction, Vincent explains to his friend Jules, "It's the little differences. I mean they got the same shit over there that they got here, but it's just—just there it's a little different." While John Travolta's character was talking about how
Europe differs from America, he might as well have been discussing the
telephone recording devices utilized at Alpha Media. Just look at this thing—what is this, 1950?!
