Not long after the United States passed the 1980 Refugee Act, thousands of people began fleeing civil war in Guatemala, El Salvador, and Nicaragua.

This bartender, as you will later find out, is named Jen. I’m thinking of Jennifer Lawrence. I would like to flesh out her character a bit more. She works 10 hour shifts each day of the week at the bar and does anything to put food on the table for her family. However, she might know more than she’s leading others on to believe in terms of what happens in this particular scene.
A role I see for Joseph Gordon-Levitt. As you’ll see, I write characters with certain actors in mind. It helps me visualize how they talk, act, and move, their likes, dislikes, and whole personality. So, I named each character by a certain actor/actress' first name or nickname.
Joe is an ESPN insider, but his role to the story is that he is Jerry’s best friend. As you will later find out, he’s also interested in Jerry’s sister Mila.

“Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die” is a classic expression of hedonism, generally used critically against hedonists. It appears in various forms in three places in the Bible:
Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 8:15)
And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die. (Isaiah 22:13)
If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die. (1 Corinthians 15:32)

See the rain comin' through the gapin' wound
Howling the women and children
Who run into the arms
Of America U2 – Bullet the Blue Sky
