* NearRapeExperience: Ugolin tells Manon that he was "tempted to commit a crime" when he saw her bathing. For all the creepiness of his obsession with her, this particular idea, fortunately, never goes further than his thoughts and he never touches Manon without her permission (which is to say, never at all).
