- This incarnation of Elektra Natchios, unlike the version seen in the comics, was just a young woman who rarely had good things happen to her. As shown in this film and her own spin-off, her entire life seemed like pure struggle. As a child, her father put her through rigorous training that only worsened at age 5, when she saw her mother murdered before her eyes, her innocent mind imagined a demon killing her. As she grew older, her father put her through a different sensei each year and still had security watch over her, limiting her freedom. Although she enters a romantic relationship with Matt Murdock, Wilson Fisk decided to have her father killed and, because of his motto of killing the entire family, made her a target as well. After her father is killed in front of her, Elektra, thinking Daredevil responsible, shoots at him before her gun empties and she breaks down into tears over her father's dead body. Now without either parent, Elektra ends her relationship with Matt to focus on revenge. She hunts down and mortally wounds Daredevil, only to learn he is Matt and the real killer, Bullseye, is watching her. Despite her best efforts, Elektra is humiliated and murdered by the insane hitman. After being forced to look him in the eye and, in the director's cut, being kissed by Bullseye, Elektra could only give Matt a weak "help me" before dying. Resurrected by a man named Stick, Elektra was cast out of his school due to being unable to let go of her rage. Although she does overcome her issues, she is still alone in the world, and due to her film's poor reception and the Daredevil rights returned to Marvel, never reunited with the man she loves or able to claim her revenge.
- Matt's internal monologue about his father's death, and how it deeply affected him for years.I waited outside the Olympic for my father. In some ways, I'm still waiting. Nobody cared much about the death of a washed-up prizefighter... nobody but me.
