He was arrested as a common thief-criminal.Back in the Himalayan monastery, Ducard told him: "What you really fear is inside yourself.You fear your own power.You fear your anger.The drive to do great or terrible things.Now you must journey inwards." In the process, Wayne conquered fear by embracing his worst fear - bats.After the successful purging, Ducard told Wayne he was now ready to lead the ninja warriors as a member of the League of Shadows - but first was ordered to show his "commitment to justice" by executing a criminal-murderer.Personnel Officer: There""s porno theatres for that.Bickle: I know.I tried that.Personnel Officer: So whaddaya do now?Bickle: I ride around nights mostly.Subways, buses.Figure you know, I""m gonna do that, I might as well get paid for it.Personnel Officer: Wanna work uptown nights - South Bronx, Harlem?Bickle: I""ll work any time, anywhere.Magneto issued video-warnings to be broadcast by the media:Today""s attack was only our first salvo.So long as the cure exists, our war will rage.Your cities will not be safe.Your streets will not be safe.You will not be safe.And o my fellow mutants, I make you this offer - Join us or stay out of our way.Now that this was a national security matter, the US President ordered Worthington Labs to be seized and secured.There were ""rumors"" that MGM filmed a tragic ending and then did a reshoot, but that did not occur.MGM""s producer Irving Thalberg reportedly was the one who insisted that the film have a happy, conciliatory and romantic ending between the two leads (although female scripter Frances Marion protested), and all existing original drafts of the film shooting script reflected that resolution.
