Scenes between 50:00 - 51:24 after river starts climbing a tree, and 52:40 - 53:45 after river starts running, both might be upsetting. Story of episode explained in time between the two scenes.

Episode 1 near end about 50:00, followed by an attempt shortly afterwards.
Also a scene near start where someone dies from fall from high rise. Not suicide but could also be triggering.
