The main characters are spies, and throughout the show, they lie to and manipulate people in order to get them to do what they want. If someone gets close to figuring them out, they throw out new information in order to confuse them.

In the pilot there is a brief flashback to Elizabeth about to be raped during her training.
During Philip’s training, he is required to sleep with many different people and it was a traumatic experience for him.
While it wasn’t assault, in season 2 episode 6, Elizabeth asks Philip to have rough sex with her, which triggers both of them and causes her to cry. He stops when she asks him too but it brought up bad memories for both of them.

There is an older man in a mall shown groping an underage girl and talking about having her lie to her parents about who she's staying with and 'sleep over' with him. This same man then aggressively flirts with a different 13 year old girl even after being told her age.

in the pilot a main character is SA’d on screen. it isn’t too graphic but it definitely quite hard to watch. SPOILER later in the episode he is killed by the victim and her husband, partially because of his assault.

Season three episode eight. I would just avoid from 15:30 to 17:05, thatll skip the entire thing although you’ll still see them getting ready to kill him, but the prospect of the mentioned trigger isn’t brought up until after 15:30, before that a gun was just going to be used

Season 6 Episode 4.
There is a woman who is sick. Near the end of the episode she v* multiple times. There is warning, she says "I feel sick" just prior. This takes place at a party.
Season 6 Episode 8. Approx. 15 minutes in, largely unexpected but deep into a scene. Involves same character. Moderately graphic and potentially very triggering. Prolonged, perhaps 30 sec or more.
