Quote #7

HARRY: Was I supposed to watch you push off and not go myself? Don't put it all on me, okay?

Recreational drugs are so called because they're often done in groups. Harry demonstrates how difficult it is to refrain from using when you are around people who use. See the line from before where he doesn't want to use, but Ty convinces him to. Harry's friends are enablers.

Quote #8

PRISON GUARD: He won't be puttin' any more dope in that.

Prison guards aren't exactly known for being compassionate, but the guards in this movie take it to another level. Even after seeing Harry's arm about to rot off, they make a joke about it and display zero sympathy.
