Line 9:
** While in the beginning, the government states that their only concern is cutting down crime. In the end, however, they cover up the whole incident with Alex's cooperation, essentially making a deal with the devil to protect themselves.
** When the anti-government opposition leads Alex into attempting suicide by playing classical music in a locked room.
* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character]]: Mrs. Alexander. As Frank's wife who got raped by Alex and the Droogs, having her be the one to receive and welcome Alex and deciding to either kill him or help him out of her objections to the Ludovico technique instead of her husband would've made for several story opportunities and a much greyer story. Instead she apparently died offscreen from the trauma, if you believe her husband, Mr. Alexander. On one hand, having her [[Stuffed intoInto the Fridge]] to serve as her husband's motivation feels cheap to modern readers. On the other hand the point of the story was that she was the [[Morality Chain]] of Frank.
