It's hard for me to take any one specific event in offense as he seemingly tries to push lines every single time with sexual stuff. So I can't say his "intent" is this or that... basically, he's just Marcello... I would say it's victimless, but then we're sat here forced to sit through his cringe back to back so... it's probably not as intense in the house... one would hope.
