The Watch That Survived a War

Everyone remembers the gold watch monologue from Pulp Fiction. Few people remember the eight silent seconds in the middle of it.

In Episode 2 of Carbon & Keel, Carlos and Sam start with Christopher Walken, a forgotten pause and a watch that survived several wars, then end up somewhere closer to home: commitment and the difference between starting something and finishing it.

Along the way they get into why Walken took the role, the mistake Tarantino left in the film and why promises matter most when nobody is keeping score.

It ends with Carlos making a commitment he can no longer quietly abandon.
