Helen tells Alice which star sign she is. Alice isn’t pleased.
| Alice: | Happy Chinese New Year Helen! What are you doing? |
| Helen: | Reading about our Chinese astrology signs. |
| Alice: | Oh do tell. |
| Helen: | Well, I was born in ’86 so I’m a tiger. I have an air of authority and am courageous but I’m also prone to emotional outbursts and react poorly under stress. |
| Alice: | Oh, what am I? |
| Helen: | You are 3 years older than me so you’re a pig. |
| Alice: | A pig? Charming! |
| Helen: | No, it’s different in Chinese culture. A Chinese pig is magnanimous and highly intelligent. You’re a perfectionist but venomous if you’re crossed. |
| Alice: | It’s all true! What about Michal? |
| Helen: | Well, he’s 21 so he’s an ox. He’s dependable, methodical, honest, unbiased but introverted too. |
| Alice: | Ooh, so does that bode well for you two or not? |
