Main Characters[edit] Ms. O / Agent Oprah (Millie Davis) - Head of Odd Squad, the stern Ms. O leads the organization with an iron fist. Whenever something goes wrong, she has the tendency to yell and is frequently seen sipping a juice box. Despite appearing younger than most of the agents, Ms. O has worked for Odd Squad since the 1870s, and her actual age remains a mystery. Before she was Ms. O, she worked as an Odd Squad field agent, and became Ms. O by passing a test set up by the previous Ms. O in 1983. Before she worked as an agent, she worked at a fruit stand in the 1800s. Her first name is Oprah. Agent Olive (Dalila Bela age 13) - A young veteran agent of Odd Squad, Olive is adapting to working with and training her new partner, rookie agent Otto. Olive is usually calm, brisk, and serious, unless the subject turns to her favorite basketball team, the Bears. She has a morbid fear of pies. Agent Otto (Filip Geljo age 12) - Olive's partner, the newest Odd Squad agent. He turned ten in the first episode. The fun-loving Otto acts as a comic foil to Olive's straight-man demeanor, frequently annoying her. Although a rookie, Otto frequently uncovers the facts needed to solve the case at hand, even doing so in Olive's absence, proving his worth as an agent. Agent Oscar (Sean Michael Kyer) - Odd Squad's resident scientist and gadgeteer, Oscar is a quirky genius who spends most of his time at Odd Squad Headquarters tinkering with gadgets in his lab. Incredibly knowledgeable, Olive and Otto go to him for technical solutions to their problems. Oscar has a goofy side, delivering his zany scientific rants with a generous dose of hand gestures and vocal sound effects. Math Room (voiced by T.J. McGibbon) - The virtual-space construct which Odd Squad agents can retreat to the room by twisting their badges when they need to visualize mathematical problems. When transport is initiated, they start to spin and sometimes get to the Math Room dizzy. The Math Room is inhabited by sentient origami papers with a unified personality and hive mind. The origami can unfold to visualize numbers, charts, and instant replays as instructed by agents. The Math Room also goes by Carol, and is addressed as such by Ms. O. The Math was originally invented by Ms. O before she joined Odd Squad in the 1800odd squad
