Trainspotting - A Miscommunication Over Lost Cards
Begbie:
Did you bring the cards?
Sick Boy:
What?
Begbie:
The cards, the last thing I told you was to mind the cards!
Sick Boy:
Well, I've not brought them.
Begbie:
It's fucking boring after a while without the cards.
Sick Boy:
I'm sorry.
Begbie:
Bit fucking late, like.
Sick Boy:
Why didn't you bring them?
Begbie:
Cause I fucking told you to bring them, you doss cunt!
Sick Boy:
Christ...

Trainspotting - Consequences of Choices in Uncertain Lives
Diane: [narrating, while Renton is reading a letter from her]
Dear Mark, I'm glad you've found a job and somewhere to live. School is fine at the moment. I'm not pregnant, but thanks for asking. Your friend Sick Boy asked me last week if I would like to work for him, but I told him where to go. I met Spud, who sends his regards, or at least I think that's what he said. No one seen Tommy for ages, and finally, Francis Begbie has been on television a lot this week, as he is wanted by the police, in connection with an armed robbery in a jewellers in Corstorphine. Take care. Yours with love, Diane.
Diane:
Francis Begbie.
Renton: [realises it's Begbie]
Oh no.
Begbie:
Armed robbery? What? With a replica? I mean, how can it be an armed robbery with a fucking replica? Fucking scandal. And the gear? Look! Supposed to be fucking solid silver, it's fucking garbage. There's young couples investing their hopes in that stuff and all.
Renton:
It's a scandal, Franco.
Begbie:
Too fucking right that is!
Begbie: [[w:Lee Marvin|Lee Marvin]
And I don't want any pot noodles, by the way. I'm fucking ] (i.e. starving).

Trainspotting - Family Support in Times of Struggle
Mrs. Renton:
We'll help you son. You'll stay here with us, till you get better. We're gonna beat this together.
Renton:
Maybe I-- Maybe I should go back to the clinic?
Mrs. Renton:
No. No clinics, no methadone. That only made you worse, you said so yourself. You lied to us son, your own mother and father!
Renton:
You could bring us some jellies.
Mrs. Renton:
No! You're worse coming off that than you are with the heroin. Nothing at all.
Mr. Renton:
It's a clean break this time.
Mrs. Renton:
You're staying here, where we can keep an eye on you.
Renton:
I appreciate what you're trying to do. I really do, but I just need one more score like. Just bring me one more hit. I need one more fucking hit! You fuck!
Begbie:
Well, that's a good fucking laugh, ain't it? You sweat that shite out of your system, cause I'll come back and it's still here, I'll fucking kick it out. Okay?

Trainspotting - Negotiation Tensions in a Deal
Dealer:
So, how much would you like for this?
Begbie:
20,000.
Dealer:
Well, I don't think it's worth more than 15.
Renton: [narration]
This was a real drag to him. He didn't need to negotiate. I mean, what the fuck were we going to do if he didn't buy it? Sell it on the streets? Fuck that.
Begbie:
Well... 19.
Dealer:
Terribly sorry, I can't go to 19.
Begbie: [flustered]
Well, fuckin 16, then.
Dealer: [chuckles]
Okay. "Well, fuckin 16" it is, then.

Trainspotting - Confrontation and Confidence in a Pool Game
Begbie:
Picture the scene. The other fucking week there, down the fucking Volley with Tommy, playing pool. I'm playing like Paul fucking Newman by the way. Giving the boy here the tanning of a lifetime. So it comes to the end, to the last shot, the deciding ball of the whole tournament. I'm on the black and he's sitting in the corner looking all fucking biscuit-arsed. When this hard cunt comes in, obviously fucking fancied himself, like, starts staring at me. Looking at me, like right fucking at me, as if to say, "Come ahead, square go." You ken me. I'm not the type of cunt that goes looking for fucking bother, like, but at the end of the day I'm the cunt with a pool cue, and he can get the fat end in his puss any time he fucking wanted like. So I squares up, casual like. What does the hard cunt do? Or the so-called hard cunt? Shites it. Puts down his drink, turns, and gets the fuck out of there. And after that, well, the game was mine.

Trainspotting - Accountability in Addiction and Its Consequences
Begbie:
Well, it's not our fault! Your boy went down because he was a fucking smack-head, and if that's not your fault then I don't know what is! I was the fucking cunt trying to get hum off it.

Are you really going to commit suicide for her ?

You forget, I'm already dead!
Bond:
Haven't you heard? So is she!

You're lying! LIAR!!

She's waiting for you!

The World Is Not Enough - Tension Escalates Among Key Characters
James Bond: [offering radio; Elektra is startled]
Call him off. I won't ask again. Call him off. CALL HIM OFF!
Elektra: [says into the walkie-talkie; to Bond]
Renard. You wouldn't kill me. You'd miss me.
Renard: [from the walkie-talkie]
Yes?
Elektra: [Bond shoots her and she falls into her bed, dead. M sees the aftermath]
Dive! Bo-
Bond: [coldly]
I never miss.

The World Is Not Enough - Betrayal and Revenge Among Allies
Elektra King: [to Renard as she announces that she has captured M for him]
Your present, courtesy of the late Mr. Bond.
Renard:
My executioner.
M:
Overpraise, I'm afraid. But my people will finish the job.
King:
Your people? Your people will leave you here to rot. Just like you left me- you and my father.
M:
Your father wasn't...
King: [leaves]
My father was nothing! The kingdom he stole from my mother, the kingdom I will rightly take back.
M:
I hope you're proud of what you did to her.
Renard:
I'm afraid it is you who deserve credit. When I took her, she was promise itself. And then you left her at the mercy of a man like me. You made that happen. For what? To get to me? She's worth fifty of me.
M:
For once, I agree with you.
Renard: [Renard reaches for an alarm clock and holds it in his hands]
Yes. And now we both share a common fate. You will die along with everyone in the city. Along with the bright, starry, oil driven future of the West. Since you sent your men to kill me, I've been watching time tick away, marching towards my own death. Now you can have the same pleasure. Watch these hands, M. By noon tomorrow, your time is up. And I guarantee you, I will not miss.

The World Is Not Enough - A Deadly Exchange of Gratitude
James Bond: [grabs Renard and holds him at gunpoint]
Expecting Davidov? He caught a bullet instead of the plane. Get off and keep your mouth shut!
Renard:
You can't kill me. I'm already dead.
Bond:
Not dead enough for me.
Renard:
You could show a little gratitude. I did spare your life at the banker's office. That's right; I couldn't kill you, you were working for me. You delivered the money, killed King and now you've brought me the plane.
Bond:
What's your plan for the bomb?!
Renard:
You first. Or could it be you don't have a plan?
Bond:
That bomb will never leave this room!
Renard:
Neither will you. How sad…to be threatened by a man who can't grasp what he's involved in.
Bond:
Revenge is not hard to fathom for a man who believes in nothing.
Renard: [pulls away from Bond]
And what do you believe in? Preservation of capital? Go ahead. Shoot me. I welcome it. My men will hear the shot and kill you.
Bond:
And the firefight will bring down half the army from above.
Renard:
But when a certain phone call isn't made in twenty minutes, Elektra dies.
Bond:
You're bluffing.
Renard:
She's beautiful, isn't she? You should have had her before, when she was innocent. How does it feel to know that I broke her in for you?
Bond: [as he puts the silencer on his P99]
I usually hate killing an unarmed man. Cold-blooded murder is a filthy business.
Renard:
A man tires of being executed.
Bond:
But in your case, I feel nothing, just like you.
