OH YES. That particular sequence starts when they're in their swimsuits and Henry sits up and looks away. There's sad music, sad feelings, unanswered phone calls, and then some drama.

Yes. Specifically an emotionally manipulative denial when confronted with wrongdoing. I'm just going to drop a big (SPOILERS) tag and then go off. Alex is betrayed by his reporter friend Miguel, who flatters him into distractedly giving information he shouldn't have ("Yeah we're uh, gonna flip Texas") and then uses it for an article. Alex confronts Miguel at the DNC hotel bar. Miguel dodges the facts and twists Alex's words into how it wasn't a betrayal because his intentions were to HELP Alex. Perhaps even the viewer is hesitating at this point. And then of course Miguel goes on to betray Alex even worse next time.

Henry's grandfather does some things that could be read as abusive, but it's made clear that he loves his grandson and thinks he is protecting him and doing right by the British people. Henry and Bea's devices are temporarily taken away and the king tries to insist on a course of action that he knows hurts his grandson.

Alex has the character trait of "uses alcohol to cope with social anxiety." On one occasion this causes a major incident, and on another occasion he jokes "I've been drunk since (a week ago) so catch up!"

There's a closeup of a turkey in a pet crate looking vaguely agitated as Alex explains to Henry over the phone how the turkey was going to be kept in a luxury hotel suite but it was decided that he would stay in Alex's room instead. We hear restless turkey noises after Alex hangs up the phone. (The only other instances of animals in the movie are horses during a polo match who seemed fine and Henry's dog, David, overjoyed to see him return from a trip.)

No, but there's a moment that could very easily be interpreted as Henry accidentally getting kneed there. (When they hide in the supply closet, there's a lot of initial comedic scrambling and a stereotypical "thump/aghh!" type moment, but I've watched the movie six times, and.....I'm pretty sure he's grabbing at his lower thigh instead.)

No. There's an emotional "run into each others arms" moment where they meet partway up a staircase, but nobody falls, they just gently sit down on the steps together. Also worth mentioning there's an offhand joke about a member of the royal family being at risk of assassination by being pushed down the stairs.

Not really. There's a moment near the end of the movie where a character realizes he's being confined to his home with cell phones and laptops confiscated. This fear and peril quickly tapers off, however. Our Heroes (TM) repeatedly push at these boundaries and find that there's no scary consequences whatsoever.

The most prolonged one is when (mild spoiler) a character is confronting Alex about hooking up in a hotel room, and discovers Henry hiding in the closet. The character then gets really agitated and mostly nonverbal as she goes through a LOT of complicated emotions and has to sit down.

Yes. Nothing bad happens or comes close to happening, but the context is very emotionally heightened, and there's a lot of uncertainty. AND the scene itself is framed in a very dramatic, slo-mo way. BONUS: Here's some behind the scenes trivia in case it helps anyone feel more comfortable watching... The scene was originally filmed just to test camera angles and lighting, but everyone liked the actor's performance, so that's the version they kept.

Only in the sense that people frequently jump to assume any partner of Alex's is female. I felt that it was handled appropriately in each case where the person realizes their mistake. (Zahra even perhaps panics because she has just misgendered the prince of England, and he heard her!)

Depends what you count as virginity. Henry certainly isn't because makes a comment about having had gay sex previously (and is thus able to show Alex how it's done). Alex has done everything but penetrative gay sex before. You could argue that he's a virgin to that kind of sex, but he had done other sexual acts with men before.

Yes lots, and it's all very romantic and tasteful. Content includes making out, hooking up, banter, undressing, implied oral, and a scene in bed with *movement.* Camera work (closeups, slow/mo, etc) focuses almost exclusively on hands and faces. (Notable exceptions include Alex's lower back, and a "brief" shot of Henry's belt/pants being undone) The actual sex scenes don't have any explicit nudity and often fade to black or do something playful such as cutting to the Washington Monument. FINAL NOTE: Kudos to the intimacy coordinator because intimacy is precisely what DEFINES all these scenes and makes everything more intense and realistic than most people are likely expecting or prepared for.

Yes but very much consensually. After their physical relationship is already well-established, Henry invites Alex to watch him play polo. Fancy editing then rapidly splices together clips of (1) Henry on horseback, (2) Alex looking hot and bothered, (3) Henry and Alex hooking up afterward, and (4) closeups of Henry's butt bouncing in the saddle.

Henry has a fancy car that he drives erratically to show off. There's a sudden sound of screeching tires during Alex and Shaan's first conversation. (Right after: "...which brings us back to my original question: what IS an equerry?")

A character jumps in the lake suddenly, and there's a dramatically drawn out slo-mo underwater scene before he surfaces. It was definitely long enough that it made me go "wait he's not....oh okay phew."

NO, but there's (1) a false alarm moment in a children's hospital where the sound of fireworks sends everyone into lockdown mode. Then (2) a joke when Alex cheekily offers to trade jobs with his secret service agent, and she scoffs, "no one in their right mind would ever give you a gun."

No. Only relevant moment is Alex teasing his mom, "omg I can't believe they gave you the nuclear codes."
