In this medium shot the audience can see Walter and Phyllis in a grocery store. Both are looking at some food which is perfectly placed on the shelf while they are talking about how to kill Plyllis's husband. I believe that this a nice juxtaposition because all all of the food is perfectly stacked representing order however Walter and Phyllis are talking about murder, which obviously is orderly at all. Adding these perfectly stacked food items adds some sort of looming feeling to the scene. This feeling might be the magnitude of what Walter and Phyllis are trying to do. I believe that the shot would be very different without it. This technique of adding items to the shot, called mise-en scene, is used in other shots in addition to this one.
