T2 Trainspotting / int_175683fa	comment	Staging an Intervention: A low-key version where Renton seems to take it upon himself to get Spud clean by making him run in the hills above Edinburgh and suggesting he find something more benign to addict his mind to. Spud still seems not to have quit, but then we see him trying boxing, which Mark had suggested, and finally writing, so we can find out he wrote all these stories down in the first place and get a plot point for the rest of the movie.note How Renton's effort succeeded where countless other efforts by Spud had failed is sort of handwaved, until you see the deleted scenes which flesh it out more.

While Diane suggests a possible defence for Sick Boy, it's dropped after that and nothing later in the film suggests it succeeded or that any further court proceedings occurred. Indeed, the extortion arrest largely serves to deprive them of their recent ill-gotten gains so they have to apply for the loan, so Veronika can steal it with Spud's help and return to Bulgaria at the end of the film.

Spud's writing also recounts how Begbie's wino father was implied to be largely out of Begbie's picture in his youth, explaining Begbie's need to seek violence since a young age. Spud became one to his son with Gail, Fergus, after losing custody of him. Sick Boy, who tells Renton he has a son living in London with his "whore mother" whom he sees only once "every ten years."

Having lost his job, unemployment benefits, and access to his son due to a colossal misunderstanding of British Summer Time, he's started using heroin again... and by his second scene, he's lost all hope and all humour, deciding to kill himself to spare his family any further shame - only to be unexpectedly rescued by Renton. What follows is a slow journey towards recovery that sees Spud channelling his addiction into various productive hobbies, allowing him to gradually return to happily goofing around as he did back in the first film.

On the positive side, Begbie's thrown back in jail, Renton has seemingly repaired his relationships with Sick Boy and his father, and Spud has managed to kick his addiction to heroin by writing about the events of his life, with his wife suggesting he make it in to a book.

The ending also effectively bookends the entire movie series by not only incorporating "Lust for Life" like the intro of the first movie but also intersperses scenes of old Renton and young Renton (ripped out of the intro scene of the original movie) arching back in euphoria.

T2 Trainspotting / int_53c5f30e	comment	Happy Ending Override: Turns out that Renton leaving Spud the money in the first film only got Spud so far. While Spud did well in the immediate years after by finding employment, quitting heroin and starting a family with Gail, his total lack of awareness of British Summer Time (Britain's daylight saving time) undid all that. Not only was he doomed to lose his construction job, but miss further opportunities for social security and reemployment, and even lose access to his son due to unintentional negligence. Being a former junky, he wound up living away from family in a dilapidated flat and returned to skag, sending his life into another downward spiral. It also turns out that Renton's genuine attempt to better himself by fleeing to Amsterdam didn't do him much good. Renton was implied to have found a decent profession and married, but by the start of the film, he has just divorced, is expected to be jobless due to a merger, and had just suffered a serious heart condition, forcing him to return to Edinburgh to confront the consequences of his actions.

T2 Trainspotting / int_5a40d6a	comment	Adaptation Distillation: Nikki and Katrin, Sick Boy and Renton's respective love interests in Porno, are conflated into Sick Boy's bird Veronika in T2, inheriting Nikki's connections and deception to Sick Boy, while also being a foreign character to contrast the Edinburgh natives, like Katrin (with the difference being that she is Bulgarian, as opposed to the German Katrin). While Sick Boy's scam is indeed what makes up the crux of the plot in T2, the overarching idea of the titular porno from the book is not, being changed into a brothel, eschewing several characters (such as Rab and Juice Terry) who were important in the making of the original plan. Frank Jr. takes the role of the person whom Begbie swindles into committing crime, unlike the man attempting to rob his girlfriend's house from Porno. Begbie's two encounters with Renton in Porno are combined in T2: Begbie manages to find him in an adjacent bathroom stall, which then starts his trailblazing manhunt of him which ends in failure.

Indeed, when the two have gotten all the money they need and have accomplished everything they've set out to do in the finale, they immediately begin plotting to steal all the money from one another. It takes Veronika double-crossing them and taking all the money for herself, and Begbie almost killing Renton, for them to move past this and properly mend their friendship.

Also, Begbie is able to tank a stab that he thinks is to his liver to set up his prison break, and later a porcelain toilet bowl to the head from Spud. Justified in the former case because he went to hospital for the injury.

T2 Trainspotting / int_a18042f1	comment	Left the Background Music On: On several occasions. High Contrast's "Shotgun Mouthwash", which opens the film much like Iggy Pop's "Lust for Life" did in the original, drops abruptly when Renton collapses from his heart attack, yet can still be faintly heard in the background as the ambient music of the gym while he lies on the floor. The Rubberbandits provide the audio of the scene when Renton is at the airport, about to fly back to Amsterdam, while Simon watches the music video of their song "Dad's Best Friend" in his apartment. Then he sees Renton showing up at his doorstep and mutes his TV before letting him in. The montage where Spud starts remodeling Simon's pub is set to Blondie's "Dreaming", which briefly switches to the jukebox when Spud puts the same song on it. During the confrontation between Renton and Begbie in the parking, Frankie Goes to Hollywood's "Relax" starts playing as a car appears. The change of pitch when the viewpoint cuts to the driver inside makes it clear that the song is also playing on the car's autoradio, which is the only source left for the track after Renton falls off the roof following his getaway from Begbie.

T2 Trainspotting / int_e9753023	comment	Aimlessly Seeking Happiness: Twenty years after choosing life in the previous film, Mark Renton finds himself divorced, childless, redundant from his job, fresh from a heart attack and back in Edinburgh: he now has no idea what to do with himself or what could bring him joy, and ends up falling in with Sick Boy's con artist antics because he can't think of anything better to do with his time. However, though he does enjoy slipping back into his long-abandoned criminal lifestyle, he eventually makes it clear that he's still pretty sad, his new "choose life" rant featuring a mention of "the slow reconciliation towards what you can get, rather than what you always hoped for." Spud also falls into this, but in a different way: as a recovering heroin addict, he's looking for a new hobby that can keep him grounded and happy - in other words, a healthier kind of addiction. He toys around with various ideas, including jogging, building, boxing, until at last he settles for chronicling the escapades he and his friends used to get into as a series of short stories. They end up getting published at the end of the film.

T2 Trainspotting / int_fe1ccea	comment	Evil Parents Want Good Kids: Double-subverted with Begbie. When he first returns home, he sees his son, Frank Jr., as a chip off the old block, even down to naming him after himself, while his son wants to go to college. In their last scene together, Begbie hugs Frank Jr. and tells him he can be a better man than Begbie himself is, implying he now accepts his son's decision to attend college.

T2 Trainspotting / int_ff7f34c5	comment	Pet the Dog: The last time Begbie is seen with his wife and son, where Begbie supports his son's decision to go to college, tells him he'll be a better man than him (Begbie) and his alcoholic grandfather, and then hugs him. It's the most human Begbie is throughout the film.
