Main character becomes kind of a d**k after being groomed by Mrs Robinson. He gets better.

It's also somewhat implied Mr. Robinson did not treat Mrs. Robinson well and that the marriage was forced due to a pregnancy.

It’s extremely creepy, moreso than the standard romcom creepfest. She’s even clear about being creeped out but the narrative continues to try to push it as romantic. Urgh.

They aren't physically abusive but they are always pressuring their son into performing for others to keep up appearances. There is another family where the mother actively attempts to sabotage her daughter's relationship and lies about her boyfriend being a rapist.

There is a quite claustrophobic underwater scene where it feels like any minute the protagonist (in a diver suit) will stop breathing or the suit will malfunction, which doesn’t happen. Extremely claustrophobic scene though

Main character is pushed underwater and kept there, they're in a suba suit thing, but the view is from the character's eyes, underwater. it does have a claustrophobic feeling to it.

The two main characters presumably might end up that way immediately after the ending as they ran away without any money or support from their parents.
