Is this a working routine for using Bait, Hook, Reel, Release (from Mystery Method)?

ME: What is your zodiac sign?
HER: Aries.
ME: REALLY??? All my best girlfriends had Aries as zodiac sign! I can't even talk to you now.

What you posted is an example of Bat/Hook/Reel/Release according to Mystery's guidelines.

I'd add at bit more dialogue but sure. My ex wife was an Aries in real life but I'd probably say. You forgot the "reel".

Really??? (Bait)
All my best friends had aries... (hook)
I can't even talk to you now (release)

What is your sign? (IOI) which is okay for A3
Aries
Really? You all are so playful and fun. But at the same time a lot of my past girlfriends were Aries. We had some crazy times! (Reel) I can't even talk to you anymore.

Make sure to accompany the release with disinterested body language.

Hope this helps out.

I agree! You need to give some kind of comment about aries if you wanna use that. Nothing wrong with using zodiac stuff but you need to say something like, they were all crazy or they were all smokers or all of them were getting really drunk... Something like that, and you gotta show that it is a point of connection, show that you understand where she comes from.

If she asks why?

What should I do?
