Angsty and awkward fifteen year old Ginny Miller often feels more mature than her thirty year old mother, the irresistible and dynamic Georgia Miller. After years on the run, Georgia desperately wants to put down roots in picturesque New England and give her family something they've never had... a normal life. But it's not all carpool and Kombucha as Georgia's past threatens her and her family's new way of life... and Georgia will do anything to protect her family.
Not spoiler free
A part of the plot is that both Gill (Austin's dad) and Georgia's stepdad abused her
You'll see flashbacks and scenes of both of them being very agressive / screaming / hitting her
Gill won't hurt Austin (at least in seasons 1/2/3, idk if another is on the way) but at one point he kinda hurts Ginny
If you need the episodes and timings ask and I will do my best to write them down
Not spoiler free
During season 1 part of the plot is that a Private Investigator was hired to stalk Georgia
It starts with short scenes where you'll see his shoes, a shadow and stuff like that
It really feels like she being stalked and it creeps me out tbh
When you discover who the PI is the stalking will stop
Georgia and Maddie recount their childhood abuse from their father figure in episodes 6/7 and in the very first episode we see a flashback of him being violent with 15-year-old Georgia before she escapes. In a flashback, Ginny is groped by her stepdad in the yoga studio.
Throughout the show there is lots of drinking, especially underage drinking. In season three, Marcus has a drinking problem and frequently abuses alcohol.
Georgia watches the rabbit who has been getting into her garden, and almost looks like she is just admiring it, then she suddenly pulls out a hand gun equipped with a silencer and shoots it. I think it was supposed to be funny? She is then shown carelessly dropping its body in her dumpster. It was unintentionally a very cold depiction of how we humans are cruel, callous, self-important creatures.
At the beginning of episode 5 (I think) Georgia sees a rabbit eating out of her garden and she shoots it with a BB gun. You don’t see it getting shot, but just a moment later you see her throwing the body into the trash
At one point during season 1 Georgia decorates her house for halloween and puts up a gigantic fake spider balloon
I don't find it triggering since it's kind of a "cute spider"
U know it has cute eyes and a hat and well it's balloons
But for someone with severe arachnophobia it might be triggering
Georgia and Maddie talk about it at one point
They talk about "they're insides curling up" when they think about the violence they endured from Maddie's dad
The whole discussion is difficult to hear tbh
Georgia will talk about it again later during the series
During 1 episode she tells Ginny and it's hard to hear it again and see her cry
It'll mentioned again
no rape at all in this series. in the first episode however, two teens have sex onscreen. they are covered under a sheet, but you can see movements, heavy breathing, and frequent moaning. this scene starts when marcus takes off his shirt, and ends when he’s climbing out the window. it’s a pretty prolonged scene so i recommend skipping it if this bothers you:)
Ginny has a nightmare about her mom putting a pillow over her head in episode 1 (I think) and in episode 2 and 3 she imagines having struggles breathing
SPOILERS
Georgia killed a bunch of guys
1) Kenny her ex-husband : poisoned with wolfsbane (which causes him to have a car accident)
2) Anthony another ex-husband : overdose of medication (he chokes)
3) Cynthia's husband (Tom) is dying of his sickness and Georgia makes him suffocate under a pillow to end the pain Cynthia's in
I don't think anyone else dies in the series
SEASON 3 Updating as I go 🫶🏻 Ep 1- 8 mins in, when Abby goes into the bathroom, mute don’t need to look away. Only Audio Ep 2 - SAFE Ep 3 - SAFE Ep 4 - SAFE Ep 5 - SAFE Ep 6 - 13.52mins in Abby is coughing in a bathroom stall. Not really triggering as no actual sounds of v* just a cough but we know that’s what she did. If you wanna skip, skip after Ginny asks Norah to go to the bathroom with her. No visual so you can know when to un mute Ep 7 - SAFE Ep 8 - 8.30mins in, Padma mentions to Joe that someone is s* in the bathroom. Just a mention, no audio or visual but it is mentioned. Ep 9 - SAFE Ep 10 - SAFE
Marcus is really drunk and wets himself while sitting on his bed with Ginny, near the end of the episode. However, we don't actually see anything, it is only talked about.
No on-screen pooping but mentions as Ginny's nickname with Marcus becomes Pooh at one point
He's gonna make multiple jokes throughout the series with Pooh/poo
Abby has an eating disorder. She purges during the Halloween episode off-screen. Her eating disorder is well hidden, and it seems it will be played into more in season 2. The way it affects her mood and other aspects of her life are noticeable if you also have an ED. She also has body dysmorphia. See the BDD category for details.
A lot of it
Ginny screams at a lot of people
So does Max
Georgia screams a lot at Ginny too tbh
None of the screaming scenes really triggered me except the ones with Gill
He screams in a violent way and it scares me
At the sophomore sleepover the main room that they're in has flashing lights (I think for the whole time? I turned on descriptive audio and looked away except for when the scene switched rooms from time to time) and there is also a photo booth there that has additional flashing lights.
No. Emergency contraception (morning-after pill, Plan B, etc.) is not abortion. Conception does not happen immediately. Plan B is a higher dose of oral hormonal contraceptive, which means it can prevent conception from happening when taken in a timely manner.
Abby's thighs are made fun of at a party by a friend. She brushes it off exteriorly, but you can tell that it's affected her and her BDD brain is kicking in.
right off the bat. georgia uses a vibrator, and is seen with her legs spread on the floor and jiggling. no nudity or audio, but took me off guard. in the last 8 mins is a very graphic scene. while no nudity is shown, two teens strip down and it shows them in bed. one asks” can u handle two fingers?” and proceeds to finger the girl under the sheets. there is heavy breathing in this scene. shortly after he gets on top of her and is thrusting while the girl gasps and moans. took me off guard for sure, but there is absolutely no nudity. just uncomfortable
