The film opens with a man in a tank top laying with his head on a pillow in bed and the bed is rocking. The next camera shot a few seconds later pans towards the bottom of the bed & there is a pregnant prostitute on top of him. The camera shows from her waist up and she is wearing only a bra; it's clear they are having sex. No moaning, screaming, or other sex sounds. And then they lie together in the bed. This sequence lasts about a minute or two.
A pregnant prostitute makes several demands of Vincent for money for services rendered.
A reference is made to a woman being unable to have children. The woman jokes that her fallopian tubes were twisted and they were just reacting to her ex-husband's sperm (very brief).
We see scantily-clad girls dancing. One of the women is pregnant and dressed in skimpy lingerie. She is seen grinding on a pole while a man watches. There is a revealing shot of her crotch in purple bikini bottoms.
The boy knocks on Vincent's door and the prostitute answers with the top buttons of her shirt undone and her bra visible. The prostitute is seen hanging around in the background while the boy tells Vincent about the fight in school, and she is somewhat included in the conversation. When Vincent mentions the term "ladies of the night", the boy asks what that is and Vincent responds that it's "one of the most honest ways to make a living".
Multiple references are made to a woman being a "lady of the night", though the pre-teen boy who says it claims to be unaware of what it means.
A pregnant woman in a very short skirt bends over to grab something in the machine and a man looks at her underwear is which is shown briefly.

One use of 'fuck', as well as about a dozen uses of 'shit' and 'asshole', and a couple uses of 'damn,' 'hell,' 'bitch,' 'retard,' and 'whore.' The boy bullying Oliver calls him names (e.i. "shithead"), and when Vincent witnesses a bullying incident, Vincent calls the boys names as well.
There are also about eight or nine middle fingers, including a school bus full of kids passing by Vincent and many giving Vincent the middle finger.
