Hedy threatens Allie at gunpoint to write a suicide note and swallow a handful of pills, making it look like she killed herself. The pills are shown but they aren’t consumed.

Hedy kicks the puppy, Buddy away from her in a scene when Allie isn't home - the dog yelps. She later blames Sam when the dog falls to its death from the balcony outside.

Hedy (suggestively) throws the puppy off the balcony and blames Sam for not properly fixing the gate. The dog is shown on the ground for a few moments outside and it cuts to the next scene. We don't see the dog explicitly fall or die.

Hedy changes her appearance to look like Allie. Climbs into bed with her boyfriend Sam and performs a sexual act on him whilst he is half asleep. She then manipulates him to leave Allie.

A woman is sexually assaulted by her employer (forcible touching only).
Later, a woman intentionally disguises herself to look like a man's partner. She sneaks into his bed and starts assaulting him orally. She reveals her identity halfway through. She continues to force her mouth on him until his climax.

Hedy kills Sam by impaling him in the eye with a high-heel, nothing is explicitly shown other than the motion of her hitting him and a few seconds of his reaction.

I don't want to be alone anymore.
I don't want to ve anything anymore.
I don't need a reason to kill myself.

There are two sex scenes between Allie and Sam, both are short and have minimal nudity. There is an explicit scene between Hedy and Sam later in the film when she performs a sexual act on him (nothing is shown). A brief shot of Sam’s penis is seen when he leaves the bed.

Minimal. Hedy kills Sam with her high-heel, it’s then found by Allie with the blood still on it. Hedys clothes are shown covered in blood, she washes them in the sink and tells Allie it’s from her period.
