Pastime

Conflict : (internal)
The internal conflict is that the story which Tai Poh claims that is fake, might be true. (pg 214)

Conflict : (external)
The external conflict was the story about Tai Poh, the one about a young man who wants to fight in the jungle. (pg 213)

Climax:
The climax is when Mr Lee decides to tell his own story about a security guard which might have a relation with Tai Poh’s life. It adds more suspense from this onwards.

Resolution
The resolution is a revelation. The conversation ends but it made both of them realize some things that are best kept as stories rather than real things.

Characters
Tai Poh : Creative (pg 212)
: Shy (pg 212)

Mr Lee : Attentive (listens to Tai Poh’s story attentively, pg 216)
: Creative (pg 217)

Man mentioned in Tai Poh’s story : Ambitious (pg 213)
: Reckless

I think the most interesting segment of this story is when Mr Lee decided to tell Tai Poh his own story which he made. This made the reader more hooked to the story.
