DEADLY CLASS is a US action thriller drama series; in this episode, a homeless teenager on the run from the police is recruited into a school for assassins.
violence
We see a dark blood spurt when a teen strikes a man over the head. One person attempts to gouge out another’s eye and then deliberately breaks the other's arm during combat training, without strong visual detail. A teenager grabs his girlfriend by the throat in a threatening manner, and there are moderate references to domestic abuse. We also see people being punched, beaten, or threatened with knives.
language
There is use of strong language (‘f**k’, ‘motherf**ker’). Milder terms include ‘prick’, ‘bitch’, ‘wanker’, ‘ho’, ‘dick’, ‘dickhead’, ‘shit’, ‘arsehole’, ‘bloody’, ‘son of a bitch’ and ‘piss’, as well as use of the ‘middle finger’ gesture. There is also use of discriminatory terms including ‘wetback’, ‘retarded’ and ‘schizo’; however, discrimination is not endorsed by the episode as a whole.
drugs
There are scenes of marijuana use, and in one sequence a teenager hallucinates after accidentally smoking a joint laced with PCP.
suicide and self-harm
There is a scene of suicide, depicted in stylised animation. Another scene features attempted suicide, without strong visual detail.
injury detail
There is dimly lit but gory sight of a corpse with a bloody slash wound across his neck.
additional issues
A racist white teenager sends her Latino classmate a threatening note decorated with swastika symbols. There are moderate sex references, including a comic reference to ‘boners’. There are references to mental illness. There is an undetailed verbal reference to child sexual abuse. Other issues include infrequent crude toilet humour.
