'threats' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both states of affairs as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'ultimately uncontrolled rage over son's' is the wordplay.
'ultimately' indicates one should take the final letters.
'rage' becomes 'anger' (I've seen this before).
'over' says to put letters next to each other.
The final letter of 'uncontrolled' is 'd'.
'd'+'anger'+'s'='DANGERS'

(Other definitions for dangers that I've seen before include "Gardens (anag.)" , "Hazards" , "Perils" .)
