Mild spolier - cigar burn question


The scene where King's henchman shows Jake the cigar burn on his arm and says it is for getting his coffee wrong. The moral of the story is just think what King will do to Jake if he does this to the henchman for just getting his coffee wrong.

I am sure I have seen that scene in another movie. Can you tell me which one.

I think you're thinking about the Breakfast Club, but I might be completely wrong....

Thank you for your time. I have not seen the Breakfast Club in a long time but am pretty sure it is not that film - great though it is.

My hazy memory suggests that the original mentioned cigarette burns rather than cigar burns but had the same pay off of one burn for a minoir offence extrapolated in the audience's mind of multiple burns for the greater offence.

Thanks

And.....unfortunately...later in the movie Lupus tells Vigg that the burn is actually from a barbecue or something like that....King never really burned him with a cigar...He was just telling Vigg that to make King seem like a heartless a**hole....Lupus was actually loyal to King - he tells Vigg that the burn isn't from King in the scene where Vigg and Lupus are playing pool and Vigg trys to buy Lupus and Lupus calls King and informs him of the doublecross......
