In the present, an office attendant calls for Oleana's attention. Oleana, now the vice-president of [[Macro Cosmos]], takes the helm of the conglomerate for the day while Chairman Rose was out of the office and orders the workers to do their best. She, herself, gets to work with a full day of meetings across town and solving different problems in the offfice throughout the day. After attending to a final job late at night, she receives another call to attend to some urgent business back at the office. She makes her way over before being stopped by the Chairman, who offers her a lift back instead using a [[Flying Taxi]] after spotting her from above. Inside the flying taxi, Chairman Rose takes the opportunity to check in on his vice-president. Oleana remarks that there is no problems in the office and everything in the company has been resolved and is in order. Rose is impressed, remarking that it seems like Oleana could run the company on her own. Oleana replies that she couldn't though, as the Chairman also has his own work and hands over [[John's]] hand written letter to him. Rose admits he is grateful for having Oleana as his assistant, to which she looks away and replies that it is her job afterall, and smiles happily on the side after being praised by Chairman Rose.

The Taxi Driver incorrectly says that "[[Dynamax]]" is amazing, and Oleana quickly corrects the Taxi Driver that it is not [[Dynamax]] but [[Gigantamax]] instead and explains the differences between the two phenomena. This makes Chairman Rose smirk as he recalls the moment when he first met Oleana. The information overloads the Taxi Driver and the Taxi Driver said that he gets it already and tries to stop Oleana from explaining any futher. Oleana refuses and insists on giving the full explanation in as detailed and as scientifically as possible. Sighing out of exhaustion, Oleana finishes her explanation and concedes that she has had a very long day.

Blurb

There’s never a moment’s rest for Oleana as she solves problems big and small to keep Galar running smoothly. But sometimes a break puts everything back in perspective and reminds us why we do what we do.

Plot

At her desk, Oleana recalls her time as a young researcher on the Gigantamax phenomenon and the moment she met Rose, who quickly took a liking to her.

In the present day, an office attendant calls for Oleana's attention. Oleana, now the vice-president of Macro Cosmos, takes the helm of the conglomerate and orders the workers to do their best. She, herself, gets to work with a full day of meetings across town. After attending to a final job late at night, she receives another call to attend to some urgent business back at the office. She makes her way over before being stopped by the Chairman, who offers her a lift back instead using a Flying Taxi. Inside the flying taxi, Chairman Rose takes the opportunity to check in on his vice-president. Oleana remarks that there is no outstanding work and everything is in order. Rose is impressed, remarking that it seems like Oleana could run the company on her own. Oleana replies that she couldn't though, as the Chairman also has his own work. Rose admits he is grateful for having Oleana as his assistant, to which she looks away and replies that it is her job after all.

The silence is interrupted by the Taxi Driver on the announcement speaker, who suggests they look at the stadium below. Inside, a battle is taking place between a Gigantamax Lapras versus Gigantamax Coalossal. The Taxi Driver incorrectly says that Dynamax is amazing, and Oleana quickly corrects him and explains the differences between the two phenomena. The information overload makes Chairman Rose smirk as he recalls the moment he first met Oleana. Sighing out of exhaustion, Oleana stops her explanation and concedes that she has had a very long day.

Major events
