After she was able to sort it out, Olly was happy about her for her help regarding the machine.

Later on, during the belle's punishment Oliver and Olly presented a prototype helmet model to them.

Olly just like Oliver, was excited upon Emilico showing up, calling her super living doll. Olly begins conducting some tests on Emilico.

Upon finishing his tests on Emilico, he awards her by treating her to a cube of sugar.

### Inspection Arc

Oliver thinks if the great grandfather was responsible for the coffee, Olly wonders that if the great grandfather was responsible for creating living dolls, they were so similar to humans. Olly thinks he feels like a human after not having the special coffee. Later realizing they shouldn't be doubting the great grandfather, they return to focus on researching rather worrying about unnecessary stuff.

A day earlier, a hammer fell on Olly's head, resulting in him remembering some memories of when he used to be in a village. After Kate said that Olly could die if Oliver unified, Olly states that he is ready to die for the sake of research. Oliver thinks on what to do regarding making Kate and Emilico lose their memories, Olly suggests that since he got his from a hit on his head, they could do the same on them. As Olly raises a hammer on Emilico's face. she evades it and along the way breaks that chair she was on and has it in front of her smacking the hammer out of Olly's hand.

Olly rushes to Emilico as she tried to miss their invention up, trying to hold her. Emilico asks Olly to stop and they should work together. Olly doesn't listen to her and says there is nothing wrong to stop the brainwashing. Emilico then uses her legs and throws Olly onto the glass that was trapping Kate. He eventually got up and went to Emilico back to hold her off, then both of them were captured by Oliver.

After Kate was free, she got mad at Olly and Oliver for endangering Emilico. They both deeply apologize to both of them. Kate tells them they shouldn't endanger themselves for research. Oliver turns to Olly and tells him not to say such things about being a sacrifice for research, he says he'll be more careful in the future with enthusiasm.

During the second gathering of roses, Oliver and Olly get invited by Kate. As Kate reveals to her debutant team that they got Olly and Oliver on their team, they were amazed. They ask Olly if he remembers anything about the village, which he replies.
