ubear, "Grace" is the name of the motorcycle that is parked in front of the pawnshop. After Bruce Willis escapes he steals it. The word "Grace" is painted on the fuel tank of the bike. Hey, is Grace all right out front? = Is it all right for my motorcycle to be parked out in front of the shop? all right = ok http://www.v-twinforum.com/forums/harley-davidson-fxr/72152-zeds-grace-chopper-pulp-fiction-fxr-related.html http://blogs.amctv.com/movie-blog/2010/08/bruce-willis-toughest-roles.php

"Please, explain to me what this phrase means." If you say "explain me", then "me" sounds like a direct object: ie. you want an explanation about yourself, not about the phrase.
