This scene puzzled me so much, for two obvious reasons: 1) What is his wife doing there? Didn’t she die like long time ago? 2) When did he ever get that tattoo?Obviously, it is hard to believe that this is a flashback from the past. Then what is this scene trying to tell us? Well, this is right after he writes down the license plate number of Teddy’s car, which ultimately leads to Teddy’s death at the end (chronologically). I think the scene is really a foreshadowing of what happens after he kills Teddy. I think Leonard subconsciously knows that he will get his final revenge after by Teddy, who has been taking advantage of him. If this is correct, then this ends the cycle of murder and therefore he can finally engrave tattoo on his chest.

I never noticed this before this kind of changes my whole perspective of the story now. I wonder how many people noticed this the first time around. I feel really smart now.
