People are scared due to security system breaches that result in widespread chaos and the potential danger of nuclear attacks.

A man tells a teenager that he is watching 'women with big boobs' on his phone. A boy becomes embarrassed when he accidentally sees a girl wrapped in a towel after she has bathed. References are made to adultery.
