A musical number where a band of possessed cops attempt to apprehend the protagonists. They spout contradictory demands and resort to violence when said demands are not met, though it's all rather goofy in tone. Later, Paul is knocked out and taken into custody by the military.

Sort of? A character has a very emotionally estranged relationship with her husband, and while I’m not quite sure I should call it abuse, she does repeatedly try and forgive him.

A character is emotionally abused/neglected by her husband, but not physically abused. Said husband does try to shoot her, but only because he is possessed.

1:11:46- A character attempts suicide, but is stopped almost immediately.
Another character's death can be considered a suicide, as he plans his own murder. This is drawn out for a while, and is hard to give an exact time stamp.

Multiple guns are used throughout the show, and several characters are shot to death.
