He wakes up from the coma, and calls out his mother on it tearfully. Her answer? To suffocate him with a pillow to cover up her deeds and have him cremated.]]

* Madison being gang raped by a group of frat boys at a party doubles as this and NightmareFuel. One drugs her drink and they take turns raping her and video taping it. Madison is unable to do anything but let out a few weak moans. Later, we see her sobbing in the shower, curled into the fetal position. Obviously she's more affected by the rape than it appears.
