Drew the Drone tells the tale of a stalwart Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) who must use acumen and teamwork to accomplish his mission of preventing an evil enemy from carrying out an attack. When Drew discovers a terrorist base, he requests support and Priscilla the Predator joins his endeavor. But when Prescilla's overly aggressive justification for striking the enemy conflicts with Drew's better judgment, he must use empathy to teach his teammate about doing the right thing; ethics and avoiding disproportionate use of force in counterinsurgency.
