One of the film’s antagonists watches from a distance as the protagonist undresses and skinny-dips (26:00). One of the film’s protagonists tells another to “feel how hard (his) cock is” and guides (and holds) their hand over his erection (26:40): it is played for laughs, but as the shot lingers, the other may read uncomfortable. One of the film’s antagonists strokes the protagonist’s exposed skin (36:00). One of the film's antagonists watches the protagonist film a sex scene through a window without her consent (42:00). One of the film’s protagonists discovers a man’s body: the man is tied up and nude except for his pants around his ankles (1:12:00). Given the later context, the film implies that he was imprisoned and touched (at minimum) against his will until his death. This discovery then recontextualizes the antagonist’s motives from moral disapproval and jealousy to sexual predation, as they cull the protagonists for his implied replacement. One of the antagonists get into bed naked with the sleeping protagonist while the latter is topless and fondles her. This scene is intercut with others and the film returns to it twice in various stages of progression (01:15:00, 01:18:00, and 01:22:00). One of the protagonists hides under the bed and is trapped until the antagonists begin to have sex (1:31:00).
