Reservoir Dogs - In theory, none of the movie should have taken place, as I believe the undercover cop wouldn't be allowed to let Mr Blonde shoot up the place. He would have had to blow cover at that point and try and save people.

I just want to know why in the last scene Mr. Orange decides to tell Mr. White that he is a cop.

Actually, I know why--so that Mr. White can blow his head off, be killed by the police, and Tarantino can have his Shakespearian-tidy ending with everyone dead.

But if I were Mr. Orange, I sure as [censored] would have kept my mouth shut.

He wanted to come clean, after Mr. White saved his life and fought so hard for him against Mr. Pink, Eddie and Joe. Orange was dying anyway after being shot again, so why not bear his soul and tell the truth?

To maximize the chance of not dying. Which for me would be a pretty big thing, even if I had been shot twice.
