Streets mother is an addict which plays a big role in Streets life, worst scene I think is in S.2,Ep.23 1:20-3:00 where he finds her drugged out of her mind in another addicts home and she barely even recognises him.

An episode starts with people throwing fire bombs at houses and a car. A person is in the car and you hear them yell before driving in to something and the car explodes.

In an episode about cults, a cult member sets themselves on fire and charges at two people, but is shot and killed before they can reach them.

Society is still ruled by greed and corruption. The system will be burnt down and "The Emancipators" will rebuild it on its ashes.

A man gets a chemical on his skin and starts shaking on the ground badly. When the guy answers the door and starts freaking out close your eyes until you hear the scene change. I don't know if he actually v* but it sounds like it so I closed my eyes. Please correct me if I'm wrong :) I am skipping through seasons and episodes so if there's one you want me to review let me know :) later on (just saw this) one of the officers gets it on him I don't think he got sick but I closed my eyes so I'm not 100% sure

Flashbang grenades are used regularly which emit a bright white flash and some smoke, but most are typically used during the day.

In one episode someone takes a news presenter hostage and swat turn off the lights before attacking, this has some pretty bad flashing for 10 to 20 seconds.

In another episode it begins with a training exercise in a pitch black room, this has bright flashing as well and lasts about 20 to 30 seconds.
