* Audrey's whole relationship with Orin is seriously hard to watch. He's spent years beating her and degrading her, and her self-esteem is in shambles, but she stays with him because "he's the only fella I've got", and because she's too scared to leave. As she puts it, he beats her up when he's "nice" and he'll be much worse if she leaves. Despite her friends and coworkers urging her to leave Orin and find someone that respects her, Audrey believes she doesn't ''deserve'' anyone better because of her past (it's heavily implied she used to be a stripper). So she stays with the creep because she thinks if she leaves him, she'll be alone, and she'd rather be abused than alone. For such a silly, over-the-top show, it definitely has a devastatingly true-to-life portrayal of an abusive relationship.

* The music for the entire scene of Audrey's death is just ''heartbreaking''. First, you have the "Somewhere That's Green" reprise, which is painful for obvious reasons. Then that song ends on the melody of "Suddenly Seymour", and then moves into a rising instrumental "Skid Row", ''all of which'' are darkly ironic to their counterparts on the soundtrack.

** What's Audrey's greatest dream? What fantasy does she cling to, despite believing it's a daydream she thinks she'll never achieve? Not fame and fortune, not living in a mansion, not being married to a millionaire. No, she fantasizes about living in a nice house in a safe neighborhood, with some "modern" appliances and a pretty garden, with a [[SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan husband that doesn't beat her and genuinely loves her]]. These very basic "[[MundaneLuxury luxuries]]" that Audrey absolutely deserves to have are completely out of her reach. (Well, not the guy, but she doesn't realize that Seymour loves her back at that point.) She doesn't even think she ''deserves'' those nice things!

She then says that she sometimes wonders if it's her fault that Orin is gone and that it's terrible for her to wish that he was dead. Seymour in turn feels guilty that he caused Audrey pain rather than save her.

* The final song, "Don't Feed the Plants".

And the worst part? It's heavily implied that their words are falling on deaf ears, as the urchins begin the song by revealing that "unsuspecting jerks" have become the catalysts for the plant's growth in size and power. In retrospect, the Audrey II was a social experiment to determine the pure in a sea of the greedy and selfish, and ''all of humanity has failed.''
