:39:00
And so she did -
:39:02
I could understand that.
:39:03
To take the pain away.
:39:07
So I cooked up
:39:08
and she got a hit.
:39:10
But only after me -
:39:12
that went without saying.
:39:13
Well, we knew
who the father was now.
:39:16
It wasn't just the baby
that died that day.
:39:20
Something inside Sick Boy
was lost and never returned.
:39:24
He had no theory to explain
this moment. Nor did I.
:39:28
Our only response was to keep
going and fuck everything.
:39:32
Pile misery on misery.
Heat it on a spoon
:39:36
and dissolve it.
:39:37
Then squirt it into a vein
:39:40
and do it all over again.
:39:42
Keep on going out, robbing,
fucking people over.
:39:46
Propelling ourselves
with longing
:39:47
towards the day
it would all go wrong.
:39:50
Because no matter how much
you stash or steal,
:39:54
you never have enough.
:39:55
No matter how often
you go out and rob,
:39:59
you always need
to do it all over again.
:40:02
Sooner or later,
:40:04
this kind of thing
was bound to happen.'
:40:12
Shoplifting is theft,
which is a crime,
:40:15
and there is no such entity
as victimless crime.
:40:19
Heroin addiction explains
but doesn't excuse your actions.
:40:22
Mr Murphy, you are a habitual
thief, devoid of remorse.
:40:26
I sentence you
to six months' imprisonment.
:40:29
I worry it will not be long
till we meet again.
:40:33
Mr Renton, you have entered
a programme of rehabilitation
:40:36
in an attempt to wean yourself
away from heroin.
:40:39
The suspension
of your sentence depends
:40:42
on your continued cooperation
with this programme.
:40:45
Stand guilty before me again
:40:47
and I won't hesitate to impose
a custodial sentence.
:40:50
Thank you, Your Honour.
:40:52
With God's help, I'll conquer
this terrible affliction.
