Prior to that, Shirley said that she would impress the duck with [[{{Irony}} her "keen wit and intellect"]].
-->'''Shirley:''' Like, umm, what's your sign?\\
'''Duck:''' Ah! A devotee of the unseen world. The universe fantastique. Almost amusing in an infantile sort of way, though terribly childish and laughably unfounded.\\
(''Shirley reverts into a baby'')\\
'''Duck:''' I believe Creator/{{Voltaire}} put it best when he likened astrology to astronomy as the mad daughter of a wise mother. Don't you agree?\\
'''Shirley:''' I go like, [[BabyTalk nappy-poo now. Goo googoo gaa gaa gaa]]? (''she crawls away'')\\
