T2 Trainspotting - Confronting Addiction and the Path to Change
Spud:
I can feel again Mark, you know. I need to detox the system.
Renton:
Oh Spud, detox the system... What does it even mean? It doesn't mean anything. It's not getting it out of your body, that is the problem, it is getting it out of your mind! You are an addict!
Spud:
You think I haven't heard that a 100,000 times Mark? You go 12 steps ahead of me comrade.
Renton:
So be addicted. Be addicted to something else.
Spud:
Like running until I feel sick?
Renton:
Yes! Or something else. You've got to channel it! You've got to control it! People try all sorts. Some people do boxing.
Spud:
Boxing?
Renton:
Well, it's just an example. I don't... I don't mean you should...
Spud:
So what did you channel it into?
Renton:
Getting away.

Trainspotting - Job Interview Advice and Pressure
Renton:
Good luck, Spud.
Spud:
Cheers, cowboy.
Renton:
Now remember, if they think you're not trying, you're in trouble, right? First hint of that, and they'll be onto the D.H.S.S., "This cunt is not trying." And your giro's fuckin finished, right?
Spud:
Right.
Renton:
But, then again, try too hard--
Spud: [Chuckles]
You might get the fuckin job.
Renton:
Exactly.
Spud:
Nightmare.
Renton:
It's a tightrope, Spud. It's a fuckin tightrope.
Spud:
See, I just get pure shy with the interviewer cats. I get all nervous. I can't answer any of their questions, like I'm a footballer... and I get nerves on the big occasion, man.
Renton: [Produces a folded up paper of a stimulant powder]
Try some of this, Spud.
Spud:
Yeah, a little dab of speed is just the ticket, mate.
Spud:
No, I went to Craignewton. I just put down Royal Edinburgh College to help get the job. There's too much discrimination in this town, they're both schools, right? We're all in this together. And I wanted to put across the general idea, rather than the details. Like people get all hung up on details. Like which school did I go to? How many grades did I get? Could be like six. Could be none. It's not important. What is important is that I am, yes?
Interviewer:
Mr. Murphy, do you mean that you lied on your application?
Spud:
No. Well, yes. Only to get my foot in the door. Showing initiative and that like.
Interviewer:
But you were referred here by the Department of Employment. There was no need for you to get your "foot in the door," as you put it.
Spud:
Yeah, cool. Whatever you say. Sorry. You're the man, the dude in the chair. I am merely here-- Like, well, obviously, I'm here like, but--
Interviewer:
Mr. Murphy, what exactly attracts you to the leisure industry?
Spud: [Glances at wall, then back at them]
In a word... pleasure. Like, my pleasure in other people's leisure.
Interviewer:
Do you see yourself as having any weaknesses?
Spud:
Oh, yes, cause, like, I'm a bit of a perfectionist, actually! Yes, I am. See, for me, it's got to be the best, or it's nothing at all. Like things get a bit dodgy, I just cannot be bothered. But, hey, I'm getting good vibes about this interview thing today though, man. Seems to me like it's going pretty well, eh?
Interviewer:
Thank you, Mr. Murphy.
Second Interviewer:
We'll let you know.
Spud:
The pleasure was mine, man.
Renton: [narrating]
Spud had done well. I was proud of him.
Spud:
Thanks. Ooh, sorry.
Renton:
He fucked up good and proper. You had to hand it to Spud.

A son.

Yeah, I've got two. That means we do not have the luxury of quitting. We're gonna make it out of here. We're surviving this if I have to carry you the whole way.

AVP: Alien vs. Predator - Unexpected Moments on a Helicopter Journey
Jack the helicopter pilot: [flying over the ocean towards Antarctica]
Just past the P.S.R.
Alexa Lex Woods:
Thanks, Jack!
Graeme Miller:
Oh, damn! I wish I got a picture.
Alexa Lex Woods:
Of what?
Graeme Miller:
Uh, the P.S.R. I wish he'd call it out before we passed it.
Alexa Lex Woods: [laughing]
The P.S.R. is the "point of safe return". It means we've used up half our fuel so we can't turn back.
Graeme Miller:
Right, but if something went wrong, we could uh... land presumably.
Alexa Lex Woods:
We could ditch.
Graeme Miller:
Yeah, ditch.
Alexa Lex Woods:
But the temperature of the water would kill us in three minutes.
