I think the Rubikâs cube video really says something about Lando and Oscarâs personalities.
I saw people in the comments going âoh they switched personalities for this oneâ but I donât think thatâs true at all. I think this is a difference of how okay they are at being bad at something/not being able to figure something out.
Lando is a competitive little shit, and will do anything he can to win any challenge or competition, but this wasnât a competition. Lando settled quickly with knowing he wouldnât be able to solve it, so instead he decided to make something artful. Lando usually thrives and goes more quiet and focused when doing artsy things, seemingly very content.
Oscar on the other hand doesnât mind losing random challenges. He does, however, not like being bad at something. We see him often making something funny and really not trying at all to be artistic during challenges like that, because he knows heâs not good at it, so he doesnât even try. When it comes to logic and thinking though, heâs more keen to prove himself. Quizzes and trivia is where he seems to care the most. Oscar is presented with the cube and he feels like he should be able to figure it out, but he canât, so that makes him sassy and irritated. Had it been an art challenge he just wouldnât have cared and not tried.
Theyâre opposites in that way. In art challenges Oscar doesnât even try, but Lando gets to show his creative ways. In trivia and things like that, Lando doesnât really try, allowing Oscar to shine with his knowledge. Here, Lando was able to turn it into an art challenge, and Oscar failed at a logic challenge. Their reactions to that made total sense to me.
