Netflix users have taken to social media to share their reactions to a sex scene in the series Brand New Cherry Flavor after being completely caught off guard by its contents.
The drama series, which is rated 18, has been on the streaming service since last summer but it started to drum up attention online recently as viewers began to share their 'blind' reactions to one particular scene.

Given that it's exactly what these baffled viewers have been doing, allow me to offer you a completely out-of-context summary of the scene.
It takes place in the fourth episode, approximately 35 minutes in, when the character Lisa gets a wound on her stomach, out of which pops a kitten. I know, I know, but stay with me.
After the cat emerges from the wound, Lisa invites over her new lover, Roy, to engage in what is depicted as a consensual sex scene which sees Roy stroking the space where the kitten popped out. He then takes the plunge and sticks his entire hand into the wound.

Needless to say, the entire situation is completely baffling, and left some viewers so uncomfortable that they couldn't bear to watch it in its entirety.
TikTok user @siriuslycody was among those to be shocked by the scene, after which he encouraged other people to share their blind reactions. Another TikToker, Lucy Owen, obliged, and looked suitably horrified as she watched clip, unable to find the words to express her horror.
TikToker Daniel Abrahall also appeared positively disgusted as he wrote alongside the clip that his reaction was 'genuine' and added: "I'm literally scared and it just kept getting worse".
The reactions aren't much better on Twitter, with one person writing: "Something that I need to learn but will never do most of the time is MIND MY BUSINESS when people on Twitter/ Tik Tok tell you to check something out DONT DO IT! Brand New Cherry Flavor on Netflix Episode 4, Starting 35 Minutes into the episode will have you like WTF."
In case you're thinking that the rest of the show might make the scene somewhat less baffling, it doesn't seem likely. The series stars Rosa Salazar as Lisa, a filmmaker who moves to Hollywood and meets producer-director Lou (Eric Lange), who promises to help her make it big in the movie business.

The series goes on to feature a witch, which is where the whole bizarre kitten situation starts to unfold. Basically, it's all very bizarre.
