Description

Domestic violence against partners and violence against sex workers is commong throughout the whole show. S1E9: a subplot involves a high school girl practicing self-harm. It is revealed later in the episode that she had sex with her soccer coach (a celebrated figure in the episode). He ends up getting arrested. S1E11: a male character is pressured to undress in order to check for a wire, the character is clearly uncomfortable and is trying to leave the situation. S3E4: a woman is raped in a parking garage (17:30-19:34). The following scene shows her talking to detectives at the hospital. In the remainder of the episode, it is revealed that the cops messed up the case and that the rapist is allowed to walk free. The victim coincidentally sees that he is an employee at a restaurant nearby and fantasizes about the protagonist killing him. S3E6: this episode's plot is largely themed around sexual exploitation. Scenes involve a young stripper being made to perform a threesome she is clearly uncomfortable with by her abusive boyfriend, her employer physically assaulting her and making degrading sexual comments when she fails to show up for work (her boyfriend is unsympathetic and laughs at this). There are scenes where a bouncer at a strip club tells the strippers that they are required to perform sexual acts if they want entry to the VIP room, and a violent, fatal beating of a woman by her boyfriend which is not sexual in nature but is disturbing. S5E1: about 2/3 of the way through the episode, a man kisses a woman without her consent. S5E10: two men threaten to rape another man with an object if he does not give them information they seek. S6E12: a man is beaten to death and it is implied that he was raped with an object while this occurs. S6E19: a man verbally harasses a young woman. The harassment is mentioned again later in the episode.
