  • In a dormitory, boys' butts are exposed by rolling up their nightshirts as they bend over the ends of their cots. Priest walks down the aisle and wallops boys with a leather belt.
  • Man leaves master bedroom to embrace and kiss young girl wearing top and just bikini underwear in nearby bedroom. He closes door. Sex is presumed to follow.
  • A priest in a boys' dormitory starts caressing a sleeping boy (but stops abruptly when the boy belts him one). This is not a graphic or long scene but may be disturbing.
