Ellie Golden is a Sophomore at a Jesuit college.Her mother is a drone pilot, firm believer in her work and supported by her United States Senator, her Bishop, and the memory of her husband. Ellie struggles with the love of her military mother conflicting with her conscience that now questions the killings her parents performed as their patriotic duty.
All four women actors stay in character for questions at the end of the second act.
