* The scene from "Ren Seeks Help" where Ren gets therapy from Mr. Horse and tries to find out why he's behaving the way he always does. When Mr. Horse angrily said that he (Ren) is insane because of his acts, Ren was horrified by the fact he turned on him. Mr. Horse then started to beat the mess out of him. Unfortunately for him, Ren hits him with the phone and scratches him viciously. When Mr. Horse reaches for the gun, Ren grabs it and pistol whips him mercilessly until he's dead. When the authorities came, they saw Mr. Horse dead on the ground and Ren, [[NightmareFace whose face resembled something like a demonic dog]] at the time. Ren was then carried away while he was wriggling rabidly. [[DownerEnding The ending was rather dark]], even by the show's standards.

*** Speaking of Stimpy, Ren describing his first meeting with Stimpy to Mr. Horse...which eventually led up to him punching Stimpy over...and over...and over...''and over''...and then screaming in horror that he "wouldn't go down". Given the fact that Adult Party Cartoon upgrades Ren and Stimpy's relationship to a romantic one, this gives very...''[[DomesticAbuse unsettling]]'' implications...

** Stimpy's breakdown at the beginning is surprisingly disturbing, more specifically, what he says as Ren leaves--Stimpy, left weeping with a mix of sorrow and anger at Ren for saying...''[[NothingIsScarier something]]'' to him, mutters "I'm gonna kill you...I'm gonna ''kill'' you!" in a soft, broken voice before promptly ''wailing'' with sorrow. Yes. Stimpy wants to ''kill'' Ren over what he said. Ren must have ''seriously'' [[MoralEventHorizon messed up]] to garner such a reaction.

** Before being hauled away, Ren actually '''[[spoiler: bites off the hand of one of the officers and SWALLOWS IT. And his tongue comes out like a snake's and licks his lips]]'''. That '''wasn't''' even the most horrifying thing about that episode. The most frightening part of the episode was the exploration of Ren's twisted childhood. The origin of Ren's anger comes from memories of his birth- being in the "dark... and stinky" womb, and receiving a slap from a nurse, which leaves a bright red mark and leaves the baby stunned. Sound funny? It wasn't played for laughs, surprisingly. It was played completely straight. "My first memory was of unspeakable pain... and from that moment on, I wanted to inflict the pain on others." We see Ren age from a baby to an adolescent, and we see that he grew up torturing little animals. The audience is treated to several long scenes such as [[EnfantTerrible baby Ren gleefully plucking the legs off of a screaming caterpillar, burning ants with firecrackers, and a young child Ren torturing a frog in multiple, horrific ways.]]
** Ren's voice is even creepier in this cartoon. John K (the original voice actor for Ren) lowered Ren's voice and made him sound very emotional and unhinged, even while speaking calmly. [[HeReallyCanAct This episode has some of John K's best acting.]] Not only can you hear the genuine pain in Ren's voice at the beginning while he's talking to Stimpy, but his calm narration of his entire life story is downright horrifying.
* The unmade episode "Life Sucks" probably would have been this for the bulk of its length for it' dark message and scathing honesty, but the storybook sequence ''especially'' stands out; it's a scene where Ren tells Stimpy a bleak tale of a colony of Christian crusaders (made entirely of children, drawn in an art style that homages the work of artist Mary Blair) many of whom die horribly in a winter storm during their long journey, and when they reach the promised land, they end up attacked en masse by the lands inhabitants and are graphically killed via stabbing or decapitation ''on-screen''--and the children that ''did'' survive ended up growing up and inducted into harems (not the Tenchi Muyo type of harem, but a room in Muslim households back then for woman servants) and slavery for the rest of their lives! Outside of Ren's infamous outbursts, this easily would have counted as one of the darkest (and chillingly nihilistic) moments, in what probably would have been the darkest episode in the entire series. And most frightening is that it wasn't made up for the episode--it was based on something that (in some form or another) ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childrens_Crusade actually happened.]]''
-->'''Ren:''' That's life, Stimpy! [[StrawNihilist Meaningless, stupid and cruel]]! I tell you, [[TitleDrop life SUCKS!]] It's a damn miracle there's any living lifeforms left on the planet!
