4 Ladies - Angeline and Pearlyn entered the "restaurant" and sat at the table nearest to the door. Ms Ho entered the room later and demanded that Angeline and Pearlyn join her at the table in the middle. At the same time, she instructed Angeline to clean the table, saying that "her bag is more than her monthly pay". Pearlyn moved the trash to another table and prompted the "service staff" to remove. Chia Yen walked in subsequently as she talks on the phone (phone call seems to be from a teacher who is informing her of her son's unacceptable behaviour in school). She then moved over to sit between Angeline and Pearlyn.
Ms Ho, Angeline, Chia Yen and Pearlyn entered the restaurant

authoritative, very hierarchical
--Lilian said, "Come sit down here. Make sure table is clean." But they were already seated somewhere else.
--Angeline was the "yes person."
--Pearlyn would still follow, but she would argue more. "But can't we call him Paul?"
--Chia Yen speaking to teacher, called teacher by 1st name--> start of hierarchical culture in SG?
--Lilian insisting on organic food; might be influencing at the start but eventually became dominant; Angeline said, "Let's go Dutch."

What are acceptable and unacceptable social behaviours that are implicitly agreed upon by all characters? 

# data[].attributes.body
The acceptable social behaviour seems to be obedience towards the one with a more superior position (i.e. Ms Ho).

Unacceptable social behaviour is to address superiors by their first name.
