The title of this section, which mentions “trainspotting,” suggests that something about this section is important enough to give the whole book its title. At first, the story seems to describe just another drunken evening for Rent Boy and his friends. Second Prize’s failed punch at Rent Boy may seem like Begbie-style random violence, but in fact, Second Prize has a specific reason for being angry at Rent Boy, though the novel has yet to reveal that reason.
