Sex scenes

A man and a woman engage in sex; he is shirtless beneath the covers while she straddles him wearing a shirt. She attempts to lower herself onto his face. 

Another man brings up the idea of a threesome, and later, it is suggested he takes part in one, with a comment about a finger being inserted ‘somewhere’.

Upsetting scenes 

Some conversations around postpartum depression, miscarriage and birthing trauma, while intended for comedy, may be challenging for some viewers.

Violence

There are some mildly violent moments which are mostly played for humour. A woman pretending to be pregnant is “stabbed” in her fake belly, and it catches fire. 

Offensive language

There is frequent offensive language including “f**k,” “sh*t,” “bullsh*t,” “ass,” “crap,” “pussy,” and “dick.”
