Now that I think about it...
I wondered if Jimmy was "higher on the ladder" than Jules, or was closer to Marceles.
Jules looks a little uncomfortable. Because he's being chewed out?
Or is Jimmy taunting him? "Yeah, I said it. And you can't do shit. This is how I am venting my frustration at the situation."
That thought occurred to me a few times. It's certainly "nigger." Jimmy could just be trying to piss off Jules, without really being racist himself. Hence the wife?
There's an essay by bell hooks on this n-word subject worth looking up. Might do so myself since I haven't read it years.
