There's the Sexy Discretion Shot, and then there's this. So you're a big-shot Hollywood producer who wants to let his audience know that Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil, but you don't want them to actually see the rape. So what do you do? You put the rape in anyway but you're careful about not actually showing it onscreen. Just how much of the preliminaries the audience sees will be governed by what audience the film makers are going after, or more cynically, what MPAA rating the film makers are willing to take. That said, enough will be shown to make it clear what is about to happen; the rapist(s) will make their intentions fairly obvious in their speech and behaviour, and the victim(s) will make their non-consent equally obvious (a Scream Discretion Shot may be invoked). In works with more gritty realism, violence will be depicted (hitting the victim, knocking them down), and perhaps some of the victim's clothing may be seen torn and/or removed before the action leaves the scene. The audience may even see the rapist unfasten their belt and/or trousers, or remove whatever else they are wearing, just before the cutaway. The discretion may be achieved by having the rapist take the victim to another room (perhaps a bedroom or some other place with furnishings to facilitate sex, thus being a further indication of coming events). Alternatively, the camera will pan away to another character's reaction or some other view, or the shot will end and another will immediately follow. Because the event is not completely shown, the audience can become confused as to whether the crime actually took place, and to what extent (i.e. whether the victim was also murdered). This can be done on purpose, to instill suspense in the audience, to make them imagine an act more heinous than could ever be shown, or to subvert this trope and reveal something far more innocuous, often after a misunderstanding leads to tragedy. This trope also turns up for Black Comedy Rape scenes, and for many modern iterations of Double Standard Rape sorts of scenes (say, when the supposed victim grants consent), because graphically portraying rape as the violent crime it is would undermine those tropes.

The Hidden: Subverted. The parasite uses his current body to assault a stripper after gaining an apparent interest in sexy women before the scene cuts away. It would hardly be out of character for a thrill-seeking spree killer to turn to sexual violence, but it turns out he was more interested in taking over her body. It does, however, literally screw another guy to death in the stripper's body. | |

Happened in the movie Hound Dog with the main character, Lewellyn, while she was being raped by a neighborhood teenager. The main character (who had already been coerced into stripping naked) was shown from the shoulders up making faces of anguish and begging her attacker to stop. Made even more unsettling by the fact that the character in question was a twelve-year-old girl played by a pre-teen Dakota Fanning. | |

In the final episode of Berserk, Griffith, now Femto, rapes Casca but we only see him lowering his winged cape over her lower body so we can't actually see the physical portion going on, though we can still see Casca writhing in agony as this is happening to her.

Censorship wouldn't allow the makers of 1928 silent classic The Wind (1928) to show Wirt raping Letty, but they implied it as strongly as possible—Wirt makes menacing advances on Letty, then we cut to the next morning where Wirt is cheerily smug, Letty is near-catatonic, and he assumes that now she's his girl. | |

Half the rape storylines on Soap operas use this (the other half being wrenchingly graphic). A classic example is the infamous rape scene for Luke and Laura of General Hospital—he pulls her down to the floor as she cries out, "No, Luke, no!" as the camera pans away. There's some quick shots of the record turntable and various items scattered around the bar, such as her purse and her sweater, before we see Laura huddled on the floor crying with a disheveled Luke standing over her. | |

Surprisingly, despite its tremendous profanity, explicit portrayals of sex, and outright gore elsewhere, Preacher keeps Herr Starr's rape by "sexual investigator" entirely off-panel. As with some other examples, this is because the scene runs on Double Standard: Rape, Male on Male. Indeed, all the male-on-male rape in the series is both played for laughs and kept offscreen; the instance we do see is male-on-female, and is played as Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil. | |

In The King's Justice, Princess Janniver's memory is read by Rothana, who shows it to Kelson. The text reflects Rothana's editing of the vision in its description of Janniver's emotional reaction, emotions an outraged Rothana passes unfiltered to Kelson. Thus, the readers get no explicit details of the act itself, yet there's no doubt what happened, or who did it; Caitrin's elder son Ithel. | |

Two episodes of Without a Trace employ this, both during flashback sequences. In one episode, the event in question is recalled by a blind girl who had been kidnapped, along with her tutor, by two teens who did what they were doing For the Evulz; the tutor is assaulted by one of the guys, and though we don't see the act, we do hear the woman's sobs while getting a full camera view of the blind girl's face as she listens in abject terror. The other episode employs this with the revelation of a main character's Dark and Troubled Past: Samantha's sister was raped by a local man, who Sam crept up on and clubbed to death with a shovel during the act. | |

Used in the anime version of Ikki Tousen. When Ryoufu immobilizes and then rapes Ryoumou, the screen pans to the nearby woods. And later, we see Ryoumou laying down on her stomach, still paralyzed, and with her bare bottom exposed. | |

Gypsy Tales: In "The Gypsy Woman and the Devil", the devil in his human disguise removes Vunida's dress and starts kissing her. As he does so, she endures it thinking of her starving children. The episode only shows an image of Vunida's children instead of what the devil is doing to her. | |

In the Firefly episode "Heart of Gold", Burgess is standing in front of a large crowd of men, making an angry speech about how women need to know their place, with the hooker, Chari, standing by him. He tells the crowd "Let us all remember, right here and now, what a woman is, to a man." Then he turns to Chari, says "Get on your knees.", and the camera fades away as she starts kneeling. | |

There's a scene in Shanghai Express where Hui Fei is dragged into Chang's office. The film cuts away afterwards but she's noticeably disheveled afterwards. | |

Showdown in Little Tokyo: After Yoshida displays a sexual interest in Minako, he's seen dragging her into his bedroom and strips down. He shows her a tape depicting how he decapitated her friend Angel previously and warns her that the same will happen to her if she disobeys him. The actual rape isn't depicted, but it's strongly hinted that Minako is Driven to Suicide afterwards. | |

May have happened in Rock 'n' Roll High School judging by the way Mrs. Togar's henchmen approach Riff and her friend right before they steal their tickets. And being the Evil Teacher she is, it must be assumed that Togar did NOT lift so much as a finger as she witnessed the double rape. If Riff and her friend really were raped as may have been implied, they're too concerned about having to come out at the top in a freshly kicked-off game of Xanatos Speed Chess to be traumatized. | |

Can You Spare a Quarter?: None of the rape/sex scenes actually happen within the confines of the story; they are only alluded to. For example, the story cuts away from the moment where Jamie is caught by his father to the moment where Graham find the bleeding boy in front of his door. | |

In Action Comics #593, the slimeball New God Sleez brainwashes Superman and Big Barda, forcing the latter to pleasure him on film which Darkseid shows to her husband Mr. Miracle. We only see his and his friend Oberon's horrified expressions before Darkseid sends them after the guy. | |

Used in Noir when the young Altena is about to be raped by a soldier. He's put her on a bed and is about to lie down next to her, and we then see her doll hit the floor. | |

Often used on Cold Case if the victim of the week was raped before being killed. Rather than the depicting the murder the way most of the final flashbacks did, the scene would cut away as the assault began. | |
