"While we're continuing our special coverage of the Year of the Dragon," said Miles, "We're going to be meeting some new people and reuniting with some familiar faces."

The first interview was with Lady Zhen, who had just arrived with her group of old ladies with 'lotus foot syndrome', as it was being called. Most of the interview went normally, with only a few surprises here and there.
"Despite what others think," said Lady Zhen, whom by now had gained greater control over her tongue, "Chinese astrology is nothing like Western Astrology. We don't believe in certain constellations controlling almost every aspect of our personality and destiny, as some people clearly believe."
"I see." said Miles, having seen a few posts from those who clearly believed such a thing.
Later, Miles asked a different question. "So, what have the ladies with 'lotus foot syndrome' chosen for their Animalian forms?"
"A little unexpectedly, not one of them has chosen to be a snake, like me." answered Lady Zhen, "While some are still undecided, one of them has actually chosen horse for their double dose."

The next interview was with Missy and Duke, who were part of Animalia's 'criminal charity' program, though there was now a running gag on the Animalia Website that 'Duke' was more like a 'Dude' due to being 'demasculinized' by the various male Animalians. While Miles didn't pry too much, he did get a bit of a surprise now and again.
"What was one thing you were definitely surprised by?" asked Miles.
"It was definitely the Meat Market," said Duke, "Even more so when we saw Mercy do a routine on the stage."
"That's actually a bit more normal than you think." explained Miles, both to Missy and Duke and a few watchers. "Because of the increased libido of Animalians, it's not unheard of for new converts to work at the Meat Market, at least for a little while."
"Have you chosen your new species yet?" asked Miles, politely.
"Not really." confessed Missy, "We want to be different species, but we also want to be compatible with each other."
"Well, have you tried looking at dogs or cats?" suggested Miles.

"Speaking of Animalia's 'criminal charity' program," said Miles, after another commercial break, "the FBI successfully busted an illegal prostitution ring in New Mexico. While the ringleaders are being locked up, the girls of the ring itself are going to become part of Animalia. While things are not finalized, nor do we have the full details yet, we are looking forward to helping these new girls heal."

"And now for our 'familiar faces' interview," said Miles, getting close to the end of the segment, "We're meeting up again with two of Animalia's most controversial figures, though they're controversial through no fault of their own." While everyone was confused at this, initially, it made more sense when Miles opened a Zoom Call with Mr. Hyun.
Since he had taken to living on Heiya Island with Ling, he was now an official diplomat for the Korean Peninsula as a whole, not just North Korea. While he still did some 'North Korean' things, that was mainly to make people laugh. He did have some surprising news to announce, though.
"Ling and I are no longer on our own." said Mr. Hyun as he took the webcam to their bedroom where Ling was reading in bed (with everything inappropriate covered up) with a little fawn fast asleep next to her. At that, many people began gushing about how cute it was, while others were suggesting names for it, even though they couldn't tell whether it was a boy or a girl. Ling also had some surprising news of her own.
"Our little fawn is going to be one year old this spring." said Ling, in response to several questions.

"That ends this special episode of Animalia Ambassadoria." said Miles, wrapping up the episode. "Stay tuned for our special coverage of the Fire-Breathing Curry Contest and the Mountain of the Zodiac Challenge, where Mister and Miss Year of the Dragon will be crowned."
