can.

00:20

It’s a very bad way to deal with being sad...

So what’s the matter with Olive this time?

00:29

Olive looks at it, and all she sees are its flaws… [Olive drawing a big red cross through her floor plan]

01:10

It’s a must have as far as Olive is concerned.

01:13

01:15

But she tells Olive she’s not welcome, and she has to leave. [Receptionist tells Olive to leave]

01:23

All the workers are relaxed and chill. [Boopoo workers welcome Olive to the office]

01:26

Maybe its the amazing space…

01:28

…the open floor plan, the glass walls…

01:30

…or maybe it’s the ball pit.

01:32

Either way, it's all going into her floor plan. [Olive diving into a ball pit]

01:35

Yup…just like that.

01:37

Olive has quite a day exploring the many floor plans of the many office spaces.

she can complete her new improved floor plan.

01:59

It all comes together beautifully.

If only she could figure out where to put that ball pit. [Olive deciding where to put a ballpit in her floor plan]
