Synopsis

Dr. Blake runs a TV show called "Independent Thinkers", which is sort of a Scientology-like self-help/religion program.

The only thing that stands between them and world domination is a brilliant but troubled high school student with a penchant for pranks...

No one is SA'd but the main character tries to coerce his girlfriend into sleeping with him. It's very brief and not graphic but still awkward to watch :/
