The figures range from the Virgin Mary and Mother Courage, to characters from Maude (1972–78), Aliens (1986), Imitation of Life (1959), and American Gangster (2007). The characters play out scenes of care, loss, emotional manipulation, abandonment, and grief. The intense relationships between mothers and daughters are especially prominent.

dojoon is never explicitly diagnosed/stated to have autism, but it’s easy to see how he could be viewed as being autistic. multiple characters throughout refer to him as being an “idiot” due to his behaviour/how he presents

A character is repeatedly insulted as "stupid," "idiot," and "retarded." He is taken advantage of in multiple ways for being developmentally disabled. Another character is referred to as a "loon," and yet a third character is always called "Crazy JB."
