Added DiffLines:

* DisproportionateRetribution: Notes that Bill's reaction to the Bride walking out on him was quite harsh, and claims "I would have just cut your face." Then we meet one of the victims of this treatment, and see that she's now sporting a hideous scar running from her lower lip up to the base of her nose.
* EvilOldFolks
* TheManBehindTheMan: Acuna, Mexico, is controlled by a ruthless gang known only as "The Acuna Boys." The members of this gang are the fatherless offspring of Esteban's prostitutes, and take orders exclusively from him- the retired gentleman of leisure.
* NotSoHarmless: For a good deal of the meeting between him and the Bride, Esteban seems just a tad lackadaisical for a gang-leader; then Clara the prostitute shwos up and the audience realises just how dangerous he is under that sleepy exterior.
* ParentalSubstitute: Esteban was the first of Bill's adopted father-figures, and still fondly remembers taking him out to the movies.
