Jules was born in Inglewood, California. He never knew his parents. His father left when he was very young and he has not seen him since. His mother worked always and when she was not working or shopping for the family she was asleep at home. He spent his time as he grew older roaming the streets of Inglewood, getting into fights and making a name for himself. At the age of 16 he got into a knife fight, ending up killing the other boy. He was detained in county lockup where he got into several more fights to defend himself. Eventually, a man named Marsellus Wallace interfered, getting the murder and aggravated assault charges dropped. Mr. Wallace took Jules in, teaching him better how to handle himself in the streets. He taught him how to handle a pistol as well as other guns like an AR or shotgun. As Jules grew older, he found himself slipping deeper and deeper into Mr. Wallace's criminal organization.
At about 22, after using the money obtained from working for Marsellus, Jules paid off his mother's house and left her with $50,000 to take care of herself. Jules then met Vincent Vega, and the two became partners. Carrying out several hits for Marsellus over the next few years. Their last hit together took place in a cheap run down apartment complex. Vincent had just returned from Amsterdam, hiding out there for around 3 years. The two exchanged pleasantries in the car ride there, talking about the differences in fast food between countries, as Vincent had also spent some time in France. As they arrived at the scene, they argued over the nature of what had happened to Antoine Rockamora, a Samoan friend of Marsellus' who had allegedly touched Mrs. Wallace's feet, given her a foot massage. For this offense, Marsellus and his boys tossed Antoine out of a 4-story window, into a glass encasement for plants, leaving Antoine near-disabled, with a speech impediment. Jules argued that foot massages don't mean anything, with Vince saying he'd given many foot massages and they all meant something, as if it were a secret kind of code between men and women.
They entered into the apartment where three college-age men were enjoying breakfast. Vincent hung back, taking a position behind all of the men in the kitchen, lighting a hand-rolled cigarette he smoked as Jules began interrogating Brett, a man who had stolen something from Marsellus. Vincent was told the location of the briefcase which had been stolen and opened it, peering inside. Jules never saw the contents, but Vincent seemed happy enough. As Brett feigned innocence, attempting to reason with the two men, Jules shot one of his friends laying on a couch beside them dead. The shock of this sent Brett into hysterics and Jules began raising his voice, hollering at the men about whether they thought Marsellus looked like a bitch, and why Brett had tried to screw him like one. Brett continuously denied intentionally screwing over Marsellus until he was shot in the shoulder by Jules.
As Brett and Marvin, the other young man in the room, looked at their dead friend, they realized they were not leaving this room alive. Jules began reading a passage from the bible he had memorized, his voice getting louder and louder as he spoke;
"Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."
At the culmination of this speech, Jules and Vincent fired their S&W 9mm semi-automatics into Brett until empty, reloading them as he lay in the chair dead. Marvin huddled in the corner behind Jules crying to himself as the two men came forward as suddenly a fourth man burst from the bathroom, wielding a massive revolver he fired all six shots at the men, with all six missing the two gangsters as the three stood in awe and Jules glanced back at the shots which had merely hit the wall behind them. The two gangsters promptly shot the fourth man as well with Jules remarking on the possibility of divine intervention stopping the bullets from hitting them. Vincent denied this, laughing it off as Jules insisted upon an act of God having saved them.
They took Marvin with them as they got back in the car and drove back to Marsellus' office. As the two men argued over the prospect of divine intervention, Jules asked Marvin what his opinion on the situation was, Marvin claimed he had no thoughts on it and Vincent turned in his seat, saying to him that he must have some opinion and as he spoke the 9mm he still carried went off, shooting Marvin in the face as he sat in the back off the car. With blood having soaked them both as well as the car, and them driving down a busy city street in broad daylight, the two hastily got off the main road, stopping at one of Jules' friends Jimmy's home to think things over.
Jimmy was less than pleased to see the two suited men covered in blood in his house. He ordered them to hurry things along and get out before his wife Bonnie, who worked the graveyard shift as a nurse, returned home. With no other choice, Jules phoned Marsellus, informing him of how things had gone down. Marsellus sent The Wolffe, a professional cleaner who promptly arrived and had Jules and Vincent clean the blood from the car and took some of Jimmy's linen blankets to line the interior of the car as they stashed Marvin's body in the trunk and ditched their suits, donning some clothes Jimmy loaned them. The car looked almost completely clean when they had finished and they left Jimmy's stopping at a junkyard owned by a friend of the Wolffe where the car was crushed along with the body and their suits.
They thanked the Wolffe for his help and decided to have breakfast together and talk over the morning's events. They stopped at a diner and Jules had a muffin while Vince had pancakes and bacon, asking Jules if he wanted any bacon Jules declined, stating he doesn't "Dig on swine" because it's a filthy animal who lives in its own feces. After some more talk on the possibility of divine intervention having saved them, with Jules planning to quit the life of a hitman and "Walk the earth", Vince went to relieve himself in the bathroom.
As Vince was in the bathroom, a pair of lovers who were also robbers held the diner up, ordering everyone to hand over their wallets after cleaning out the register. As the man stopped at Jules asking for his wallet, Jules held his 9mm under the table aimed at the armed man. He dropped his wallet in the bag and then was ordered to show the man what was inside the briefcase they had taken from Brett earlier. Jules refused, stating it belonged to his boss and he was just trying to return it. The man threatened to shoot him if he did not open it and so Jules opened the case, the sight of what lay inside shocking the man so much so that Jules was able to grab hold of him and press the barrel of his 9mm to the man's face.
The man's wife began losing it, shouting at Jules to let him go, waving her revolver at him as he told the man to tell her to be cool, to relax. She told him her name was Yolanda and he calmed her by asking what the Fonzie was like to which she responded shakily, "H-he's cool." and Jules told her that's what they were going to be, cool. He allowed the man whom he called Ringo to sit across from him, still holding his gun on him. He told the man why he couldn't give the case to him, stating he had gone through a lot of trouble to acquire it and was not about to hand it over. Ringo nodded and Jules told him of the bible passage he had memorized, stating that he'd been saying it for years. And he used to think that he was the tyranny of evil men and that people like Ringo were the weak, and that he was trying, he was trying real hard to be the Shepard.
Just then Vince returned from the bathroom, brandishing his own S&W 9mm he held it aimed at Yolanda who began freaking out again, unsure of whether or not to hold her gun on Jules or Vincent. Jules kept them calm, ordering Ringo to give back his wallet, easy to identify as it was the only one which read on it; "BAD MOTHERFUCKER". Jules then took the $1,500 he had in his wallet and gave it to Ringo. Vincent became angry, stating that if Jules gave Ringo $1,500 he would shoot Ringo on general principle. This drove Yolanda nearly over the edge and she began shouting and screaming again before Jules kept Vincent calm and told him that he wasn't giving Ringo the money, he was buying Ringo's and Yolanda's lives with it. He told Ringo that he could leave with the wallets and the $1,500, saying that it seemed like a nice score to him and Ringo agreed, leaving with Yolanda in a hurry.
Jules and Vincent regrouped having a laugh at how the morning had transpired and they then left the diner. Within the next year, Jules left California, hitchhiking his way across the country and meeting many people he arrived in Liberty City after a few years, determined to change his life he found himself slipping as he met a man named Derrick Freeman with whom he got involved with robbing a bank. The heist was successful, but Jules decided he needed to remain to true to his change after having been saved by God as he believed so he took a regular job as a Taxi driver for the city. It wasn't as exciting and the work was slow sometimes, but it felt good to be a normal person again.
