Extremely brief moment where a woman realizes her boyfriend is using his power to prevent her from confronting him about his (annoying but not abusive) behavior. She becomes anxious and distressed by this, but since it's a sitcom, the problem is solved within five minutes. SPOILERS: she successfully breaks up with him

A character has a power that sexualizes situations that neither he nor those around him wish to be sexual. This is described but not shown. Also, two characters have sex unaware that they are being watched.

There is a one-off joke where a character you would not expect to be homophobic says someone else (whose sexuality has never really come up) came from "homo island." It's meant to be shocking in how wrong it is, the show doesn't seem to endorse it

"Lame." Also, in same episode, there is a running joke about a person with super-hearing being pained by sounds and wearing noise-cancelling headphones. Not sure if the portrayal is ableist or not, ymmv

A character has a power that sexualizes situations that neither he nor those around him wish to be sexual. He tells a story of discovering this power during an interaction with his dad. It is unintentional, not shown onscreen, and played for laughs, but it is incestuous
