** In a case of VillainHasAPoint, Alice really is holding Bob back from using his full power. Evulz hopes that by killing Alice, Bob can finally use his full power to put an end to Lord Darkness's ForeverWar.
** Alternately Alice is EvilAllAlong and she was deliberately holding Bob back so that he wouldn't try to kill Evulz due to either her being a mole working for him or being another BigBad waiting in the wings. Either way, she has to die.

** Bob's dark side Pob orchestrates a SplitPersonalityTakeover by convincing him that Alice is holding him back. Due to Bob's HeroicWillpower, Evulz makes the choice for him and kills Alice so that Bob will stop holding back and hopefully get rid of Lord Darkness for him. Instead Bob snaps, his dark side takes over, thanks Evulz for killing Alice before gutting him and Lord Darkness before the story ends with an EveryoneDiesEnding that ends in Pob becoming a RogueProtagonist in the sequel.

* '''Implied''': The film's opening credits sequence is a montage of Alice and Bob in the "past" being lovey-dovey and Bob being a boxer who insists on [[LetsFightLikeGentlemen fighting like a gentleman]] even if he loses and Bob in the "current day" being a CurbStompBattle-causing monster on the ring. It does not takes Sherlock Holmes to figure out that Alice will be dead or otherwise removed from Bob's life by the time the "Directed By" part arrives.
* '''Played For Laughs''':
** The thing "holding Bob back" is something dumb like his ''Golden Girls'' collection.
** Evulz wants Bob to stop holding back. He convinces Alice to stop having sex with Bob. [[FauxHorrific Bob reacts like he had killed Alice and replaced her with a doppelganger]].
** Bob stops holding back. He becomes a ComicallyInvincibleHero.
** Evulz kills Alice. Bob falls apart in a fashion that [[{{Narm}} is seen as absurd]] InUniverse and out.
* '''Played For Drama''':
** Evulz kills Alice. Bob stops holding back and [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge tears apart everything Evulz was working on]]. The inevitable "[[GoneHorriblyRight this is what you wanted, aren't you proud?]]" question will follow.
** Evulz convinces Alice to divorce Bob. It's equally effective in "removing the thing holding Bob back", but the long-term effects regarding Bob trusting Alice again or wishing to love again are more complicated than if Alice had just died [[ReplacementGoldfish and the writers put Jean in Bob's path]].
** Bob does not becomes stronger. He just plain falls apart.
* '''Played For Horror''':
** Evulz gets rid of Alice as an obstacle for Bob to unleash his full power... and audiences will be turned off looking into fridges for a while.
** Evulz wanted Bob to unleash his full power. Bob instead becomes DrunkOnTheDarkSide and proves himself [[EvilerThanThou more vile than Evulz]] with an extremely brutal massacre.
