There is an imaginary sequence that includes the rape of a servant by their employer. It is implied that the transgender main character becomes a sex worker as a last resort in order to survive. A man, expecting the main character to be a sex worker, attempts to rape her and strangles her with a necklace. She then escapes from his car by spraying perfume in his face. It is also of note that there is a lot of violence and brutality toward the transgender protagonist, perpetrated by people who have power over her in some way. This mistreatment includes parental child abuse and abuse by implied romantic partners and police.
