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. | ||

Inside, a {{pkmn|battle}} is taking place between a Gigantamax {{p|Lapras}} versus Gigantamax {{p|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. | ||
