SPOILER
I'm saying yes because you are shown someone getting into an accident and the car exploding with them inside and you later see their very badly burned body
The spoiler is the character was dead before even getting in the car, so the explosion is technically not what killed them

Two that REALLY stand out. When you see Agent Scott reaching into the ceiling and when she lays down on Martin's bed, get ready.
