There's a version of Frankenstein that I saw on TV when I was a kid. When the monster is first created he is the perfect man. He really is. Dr Frankenstein holds a mirror in front of him and teaches him the word "beautiful".

But something is wrong somehow. There is this loose arm that keeps getting out and crawling around the lab until finally the Doctor throws a bottle of acid on it.

Everything starts getting more and more fucked up. The monster grows more and more hideous until finally the doctor has to prepare an acid bath for him too. I think the wrong guy falls in or something and the monster runs away.

They end up meeting again way up near the North Pole where we realize the Doctor loves him like he's his dad and then a giant glacier collapses on them.
