What if, in the beginning, when Clu repurposed Tron to become Rinzler, Rinzler was not made to wear that helmet all the time? What if Clu kept Rinzler's face uncovered (with the damage from the last attack, and Rinzler's eyes glowing red, and neeeef!) but the corruption of his circuits caused Rinzler to begin growling, like a corrupted hard drive. The sound and the forever-stoic, blank, emotionless expression on the former Tron's face becomes like the tell-tale heart beating beneath the floorboards, a constant reminder of how Tron was once Clu's friend and, dare say it, uncle of sorts. So eventually, Clu's guilt over having damaged and corrupted his friend Tron became too much, and he sealed away those familiar features beneath the helmet.
Sorry about the comma-abuse and tense-shifting. It was one of those stream-of-consciousness ideas. Slash optional. Make my heart ache.
Scrolling down, there's a pic of a blank-looking Rinzler sans-helmet, growling softly, and Clu is confused as to where the sound is coming from. Inspiration, and thus, idea!
