One driven by self interest, where altruism typically takes a back seat to "me first." Its interesting then, to see the interplay between characters placed in a microcosm of modern society. How will they react when called upon to sacrifice? How much will they be willing to give up? There's no judgement or condemnation here, nor I feel should there be.
