One of the biggest mysteries of Reservoir Dogs surrounded the diamonds the team was put together to steal in the first place. Just like how the heist itself was never shown in the movie, neither was the actual payoff.

With the job hitting the fan almost instantly, it became more about survival than anything, pushing any thoughts of finishing the job from the team’s minds. Mr. Pink however, afterward claimed that he got out with a bag of diamonds, but even after he, Mr. White, and Eddie went to get them, they still weren’t seen.

What actually happened to the diamonds Joe hired the six men to grab? There is another mystery in the Tarantino universe that has so far remained unsolved, but could these two details actually answer the question of the other?

Could the diamonds taken by Mr. Pink have been what was in the briefcase Vincent and Jules took for Marsellus Wallace from Brett and co.? It’s a minor detail in Reservoir Dogs that doesn’t necessarily mean much, but the director may well have been setting up his next great mystery with it.
