In The Blood tells the story about a mother, Hester, and her five fatherless children, trying to find help to make her children's lives successful. Living in poverty and having the reputation as a "slut" on her, her children and her future begins to grow dim. Hester seizes the opportunity to receive help from her children's fathers, with hopes that one may help them. The play moves to other characters' stories (confessions) such as the doctor, welfare, and her friend, who is involved with Hester's struggling predicament.
