Not sure if this is the right category but the main character is in an emotionally abusive, on-again-off again relationship with the president.
He uses her for sex and then tells her they are done. On two occasions (so far) tries to force himself on her. He abuses his power to have her watched.
He pretty much does the same to his wife though she manipulates him too. It's very toxic. Potentially triggering for some.

The scene shows a murdered golden retriever who is the pet of a lovely family who was also murdered. The scene also shows murdered children and is exceedingly graphic.

S3 E7: Mellie is sexually assaulted by her father-in-law. There is no warning by the show but they show the rape. It is incredibly disturbing and can be triggering.

A character is graphically waterboarded in a prolonged scene. It's not *technically* the same as being held underwater, but it's effectively the same.

Quite a lot for network TV
episode 8 of season 3 has one of the most disturbing scenes I've ever seen on network TV. A character self injures by chewing through her own wrist. It is really graphic and bloody. I had to turn it off.

Where to Watch
The dog is already dead and it is not a dog that we’ve gotten to know, but it is very sudden, unexpected and upsetting to see. The dog is curled at its owners feet which was even more upsetting to me.
Takes place in Season 2, Episode 9. Approx. 3/4 of the way through the episode.
You’ll know it’s coming because a man walking a German Shepherd along the street has to pull his dog away from the house. And the male character that we’re following goes up to the house and slowly enters; this is when you need to either close your eyes or fast forward.
