Description

There is a storyline in one of the seasons where it is heavily implied that one of the main characters was groomed and either sexually abused or pimped out to be sexually abused by a photographer when she was a young teen in the modeling industry. The woman who groomed her now has children who go to the same school as the characters children, and so they have many tense interactions where the character is treated as crazy for being defensive when her former abuser is around her children. When the situation is explained to other central characters there is a lot of kindness, sympathy and understanding, and anger at the abuser, but no justice is ever sought or received. There is a scene at a school auction where a provocative photo of the victim is being auctioned off, and many of the background characters are bidding on it, but the victim ends up spending an exorbitant amount on it just to bring it home and burn it. The photo is shown in full, and though in real life it is not an image of a child, it is implied the character was underage when the photo was taken. Topics like rape and harassment are also mentioned throughout the show in vague ways, and jokes are made about the #metoo movement. There is a questionable relationship between an older male lead and a newly adult female celebrity, but the character is of age, and the relationship is consensual, though it creates an uncomfortable dynamic.
