A character is stabbed with a sword, and he falls to his knees (he stands up and shows us that the sword did not actually pierce him). An ogre performs a knighting ceremony and apparently strikes the intended knight with a sword (we hear the man groan and we hear a squish).
► Many men with weapons, as well as sentient trees attack four characters: they fight with kicks and punches, and three of the characters are caught in a net, while a cannon is pointed at them; one of the characters turns the cannon toward the attackers and when it goes off it blows up a piano and the attackers run away. Two large groups face off and begin to fight.

A knight thrusts a spear into a woman's bucket of popcorn and shoves her into a seat.

An ogre causes a series of unfortunate events that include a donkey falling onto a woman, items being thrown around a room, people falling to the floor, flaming kabobs are thrown into a wall almost hitting a donkey and setting fabrics on fire, and a flower pot is flung across a room. A dragon sprays flames toward a man.

A man tells others to "get rid of" a high school aged boy (implying to kill him). A high school aged boy is told about tasters who sample a king's food to make sure that it is not poisoned.
► A man eats gravel and we see blood in his mouth. A boy spits when he talks and another boy gets repeated nose bleeds.
► A gingerbread boy remembers being tortured and having his legs broken off. A man is zapped by an electrical charge (he's OK). A tree flicks a bird off its branch. People scream and run when an ogre walks onto a high school campus.
► An ogre has a bad dream about having thousands of babies, each one getting into danger while he tries to keep them safe from burning themselves or falling off high perches; one baby projectile vomits on him, pushing him across the room.
► Babies flatulate in a tub of water and giggle, a baby spits up on a woman, and babies and another character play in mud. A gingerbread man passes a gumball when frightened by many guards with swords. A woman spits in a beer mug to polish it. We see an ogre's very long and cracked toenails a couple of times and in one scene he has them sanded down with a power tool.
