Description

S1E3: a female character is threatened by a character she is attracted to. Since he got into her room without asking, her reputation would be ruined if she screams. They eventually as sex, and this is used later by another man as a threat to her reputation. S4E3: rape is strongly implied (a man blocks a woman from leaving a kitchen before forcefully pulling her) between 40:20-41:45. The woman is later found bloodied and disheveled: a man helps fer hind new clothes and takes over her duties (45:25-46:37). S5E9 (Christmas Special Part I): a woman recounts in detail being molested as a child (19:50-22:19). The rape is mentioned frequently thereafter with her having to see the same man again whilst hiding it from her husband. The plot focuses entirely on her husband's revenge and her protecting her husband.
