Oona was sitting on the lab floor, hidden from everyone's view as she thought about everything. A part of her had really thought that Oscar had some sort of feelings for her, but now he was dating Olympia. It was all so confusing to her, and it really hurt to see her crush with someone else. But of course, Oscar's happiness was most important to her, and if he was happy dating Olympia, then Oona would make sure that her feelings wouldn't get in the way of that.

Just then, Otis walked into the lab, confused when he didn't see Oona at first. "Oona...." he said once he noticed her sitting on the floor.

"Oh, hey, Otis. What are you doing here? I thought you were still having lunch with Olympia and Oscar." Oona replied, standing up.

"No, I.... wasn't really hungry." he reacted. "Did you know Olympia had a thing for Oscar?" he reluctantly asked Oona.

"No, I didn't. I mean, I thought she liked you if I'm being honest. And I thought.... I didn't think Oscar liked her in that way, but I guess he does." Oona faked a smile as she spoke.

"I guess Olympia doesn't like me in that way. So, um.... what do you think about going to that Soundcheck concert they were talking about?" Otis questioned.

Oona shrugged. "I said earlier that I didn't wanna go with them. I wouldn't wanna intrude on their date." she reacted, sounding more bitter than she had meant to.

"Well, I meant what would you think about going with me?" Otis explained. He figured if he couldn't date Olympia, then he might as well try to get over her and date someone else.

"Us? Together?" Oona questioned, not expecting him to say that. She thought for a moment. Since she and Oscar couldn't be together, then maybe she should try dating other people. "Sure." she eventually agreed, but her smile was still forced. She couldn't help but secretly wish that she were going to the concert with Oscar instead.

Later, Otis was just sitting on his desk as he couldn't help but watch Olympia from afar as she talked with Oscar near the lab. She had a wide smile on her face as she spoke with the scientist, causing Otis to let out a quiet sigh. Eventually, Oona had walked up to Otis, snapping him out of his thoughts as she greeted him.

"Hey, Otis. I was just going to ask you what you think I should wear to the concert tonight. Should I try to match with what you're wearing or...." she ranted, her words trailing off when she noticed that Otis was barely paying attention.

"Otis? What are you looking at?" Oona curiously wondered aloud, looking in the direction of whatever Otis was staring at, seeing that it was Olympia and Oscar.

"Oh, I was just wondering what they were talking and laughing about. I mean, it can't be that funny." Otis said, annoyance seeping into his voice.

"Why do you care about what they're laughing about?" Oona asked him.

"I don't. I was just saying." Otis quickly reacted, his response not making much sense. "You should wear whatever you want to the concert, Oona. I'm sure you'll look great in anything." he added, replying to her question from earlier.

"Thanks." Oona simply said, smiling. But she found herself staring over at Oscar and Olympia as well. That's when Oscar happened to look over at Oona, the two of them making eye contact by mistake, staring at each other for a bit too long before looking away.

That night, at the outdoor Soundcheck concert, Olympia and Oscar holding hands as they watched the band perform their hit song 'Gonna add one'.

"This is great! Thanks for bringing me here, Oscar." Olympia said.

"Oh, of course. No problem, Olympia." Oscar reacted. "You know, Oona and I were repairing gadgets earlier and we found the concert-inator. It can make a concert right there in the room. That's one of Oona's favorite gadgets." he randomly brought up.
