Hunters shoot an elephant for ivory; this scene is shown to share the memory of pain and is meant to be sad, but it is still difficult to watch.

A male character was taught what kissing is, so he demonstrates it (against community rules) on a nervous and surprised female character without talking her through it. This part was not in the book. It can be hard to take.
