I’m trying to generate a report for a dynamic component that can be stretched to multiple numbers. I can not figure out what I need to check or uncheck to get it to spit out a report only showing the drilled component and not showing the parent component.

You want to add an attribute, e.g. Container, and mark it as skip_if. And then set the report to skip any components with skip_if set to true, but still drill into them for sub-components.
(In the example below the attribute for skipping was called No_Show. It doesn't matter what you call the new attribute, but you need to mark the new attributes to be skipped if its value is true - but checking skip_if for the new attribute.)
See: Skip_if
Skip_If attribute
Note: This attribute is marked to as Allow Report so that it is used to calculate the report. But is also marked Suppress from Report so it does not show up on the report.
If you have an component which you never want to include in a report, you can mark it as 'Skip_If.
If Skip If is set for an attribute and the attribute is true, then the component will not be included in the report.
If the Skip If attribute is calculated, then the result of the calculation will be used.
If it is Numeric, Database, or Currency, then it will be skipped if the values is non-zero.
If if is Text, then it will be skipped if it is not blank.
