A mentor once had a student, who used to be a good person, and perhaps the mentor's most promising and skilled student ever. That student had a flaw; a seed of villainy that needed a trigger. Usually, it was arrogance about his/her skills, or impatience at not being taught the final skills that the mentor had yet to teach. Then the student became a villain
Demanding Their Head
A literal, hyperbolic approach to "putting a price on one's head."
Somewhere, somehow... somebody crossed the wrong person or group in a position of nefarious power, and now they're gonna have to pay dearly for their insolence.
