Later that day, Saif sees his father preparing a work presentation about "conflict management theory" where he uses animals to represent different people's personality traits. Saif is captivated by this incredible idea and decides to use this same method for his homework assignment. Over the next few days, Saif observes his classmates and assigns them to different animal 'types' depending on their behavior.
