** There's a scene where Heffer was sitting at a weight training station with his back to the camera. All we see is his arms moving back and forth.

** At the gym, there's a scene where a guy lifts weights, but since they're too heavy, we get a graphic, gory shot of his arms falling off, complete with blood and bones.
