>The order of the bounties isn't important.
To the main story, I agree but The former dentist says that it's is good luck to keep the first bill, this is still his 3rd unless there's something I'm missing.
>The money isn't the issue with D'Artagnan and Candie. It's about Candie having the power of life and death over D'Artagnan, brutally intimidating Schulz and Django, and establishing Candie as one of the movie's villains.
Similar to my issue before, the numbers are wrong but it works for the plot.

>I have no idea what you’re asking, regarding the guns. They were armed because they’re bounty hunters traveling across dangerous country. They were disarmed when Candie discovered their deception. Schulz had a hidden gun and used it. Where’s the confusion?
Maybe it's a product of the time, it just seems odd to not disarm yourself or be asked to do so and be refused entry if not when entering certain places, like your host's premises. The only people I woudl expect to have weapons on them in this situation would be Candie's security team/guards.
>And calling someone the lowest of the low is a moral judgment and not at all a statement about their place in a professional hierarchy.
I understand that bit now.

I used to watch that but it annoyed me quite a bit, especially the roll credits thing which I have struggled and failed to find a reason for as to why that is a sin and why it is "roll credits", my best guess is that sometimes it's said right at the end of a film or soon after it starts with opening credits but that's very rarely the case.

If that's your view then maybe you shouldn't be on this subreddit, no shade, just saying.

Ah, right, yeah I agree with that. Now that you mention it I think it was said that a black slave trader (Django's role) was called lowest of the low too.

>Then is your question only about Schulz’ hidden gun?
Calvin Candie: Mr. Moguy, would you be so kind as to collect the pistol hanging off these buys' hips here?
If they were hidden how could Candie know they had them? No one had drawn any guns yet except for the guy with the shotgun behind them.
>Do you know what it means to call someone “the lowest of the low”?
Maybe not, I thought it meant bottom rung on the hierarchy.

>Why were they armed? I don’t remember if Schulz was conspicuously armed. Django probably would not have given up his gun.
After Stephen informed Monsieur Candie of the deception both their pistols were taken from their clearly visible belt holsters.
>And are you really confused that Django would call Stephen “the lowest of the low,” for having an important role on a brutal slaving plantation?
Yes, the fact that he's important means he isn't low at all! He seems to be running the whole house like a modern day butler or housekeeper would with a team of servants.

It was automatically removed so I thought that might be the problem, I'll change it now and hope it won't get deleted.

I'm autistic, reading between the lines is really difficult for me.

Yes, I guess that makes sense, if a slave does something, the master gets the credit.
