She has saved their dogs from the fight they might have carried on to grievous end, is attractive and well situated and competent; but, uncertain if she's married, they leave her home with barely a thank you, without being civil to the new neighbour - all because she forgot her wedding ring in the bathroom when she cleaned herself after tending to their wounded dog!

Humanity, during wartime, back home and between strangers.

When a soldier comes home to find he's too late, his girl has been with another who came home wounded and is willing to fight for her - only, the one who came late isn't only unwilling to fight, but is unwilling to let anything spoil his happiness about being back safe, which spoils it for the one itching to fight! And for her, too.

About travails of work required to make theatre performance work, before performers come on stage; about beauty and love passing, unseen, unnoticed, while an academic attempts writing about it; about a producer, financier or theatre owner insisting on a piece with lower taste, in name of giving public what they want.
