When Maeve's mother shows up at their place of work, Maeve must decide what they're willing to sacrifice in order to reconnect. Meanwhile, the life they've built with their partner, Gracie, seems to be descending into a fantasy state - and look, there's aliens!

I'd like to thank Alex Lubischer and Marisela Treviño Orta for their mentorship while developing this script, John Baker for his dramaturgical feedback, and Meredith Alexander for her expertise during this process. Big thanks to the entire team and their willingness to be both actors, directors, and dramaturgs in rehearsal.
