Just before 5 minutes into the episode, Patrick sees a scorpion on the counter and then flashes back to a memory of his dad putting his cigar out on an ant. then back in present Patrick puts a glass over the scorpion.
Just before 10 minutes into episode, Patrick takes the glass off of the scorpion. It looks like it’s dead but then it gets up and walks away.

Not strictly mutilation, but Patrick develops a nasty eye infection from drug use. He has to wear an eye patch to get it to heal.

Unclear if what's happening is a seizure or not, but there's multiple instances of Patrick convulsing when he's coming down from drugs/alcohol. In one scene as he's being wheeled into rehab while on a table, a nurse mentions he'll be receiving medication to 'stop the seizures'.
