What's it going to be then, again?

This is the start of the second part. It also signifies a power shift. This is because Alex is in no position to ask this question. He just killed a woman and was abandoned by his fellow droogs. He is under the administration of the law now. Alex, being the livewire that he is, is locked up in a prison. The opposites are attracted and Alex is pretty much doomed. But the fact that he is able to pull out those words and deliver them again shows that his freedom of choice is still alive and that he might as well be executed because, it is like the saying: “you can take the man out of the city, but you can’t take the city out of the man.” This goes for Alex, you can lock Alex up, taking him out of a world where he can do, think, and act as he desires, but you can’t take that lifestyle out of Alex. Like the saying, Alex might be locked up, but if he were to serve his time and be released then he’d be back at the same old game in no time at all. Alex, now that he’s locked up, wants sullies his old lifestyle with an infatuation with God and the bible. He found pleasure in seeing himself as a Roman guard, whipping Jesus as he carried the cross. Sick. He also kills a man. One of the men in his own cell, he kills him. Under the jurisdiction of the government, Alex would continue on his path of mayhem and destruction, destroying a life. This is sort of ironic. He himself has had his life destroyed by being held prisoner, but he still manages to end another’s life. His incapacity to change, to become well is overpowered by his love of the fight, disobedience, and freedom of choice. That is, until he is administered to experiment the Ludovico Technique.
