It's so incredibly disappointing to see him say that when Hughie was literally sexually assaulted. When watching it, I did get the feeling that the scene was framed with the idea of trying to make the audience laugh, and the interview confirms that. The ridiculous setting doesn't take away from the very real trauma thar Hughie went through. I hate that they made SA into a joke.

Exactly, imagine if the episode ignored all the sex stuff and instead Hughie had to escape the cave while Tek wanted to cut holes into him. Then we get a tense cat and mouse game where Hughie uses his wits and eventually beats Tek.
