Strongly implied drug use in the first vignette. The second vignette has someone slip pills into water. The effects of these pills aren't confirmed, but by implication they are likely sleeping pills.

It's not cheating because she broke up with him, but her ex still has delusions that their relationship will still continue, so he becomes upset when a man answers the phone when he tries to call her.

There is a brief kidnapping of a child to get information. The child is not abused (nor is even aware of the kidnapping) and the situation resolves very quickly.

In a scene after a character consumes 30 cans of expired pineapple, he throws up in a bar. There is audio but it is not hugely graphic.

The two main male characters are in fact cops, but policing is largely not a part of the plot. They just happen to be cops, the story wouldn't be much different if they weren't cops.

In the second segment, the male lead gives two pep talks to a bar of soap. First he says it "used to be chubby" and has lost weight (because it's just a sliver.) Then later on when it's replaced with a new bar, he lectures it for being depressed and gaining weight.

characters are shot, but only one scene is in any way graphic (the scene in the first story after the cop goes jogging on his birthday). in this scene, a man is shot at point-blank range, and blood is shown pooling around his head after he falls to the ground.
