[edit] Season 1:
Oscar is Mexican-American, son of parents born in Mexico. Quote from Oscar: "I'm an accountant at a failing paper company in Scranton."
[edit] Season 2:
After some hints that he might be gay, we find out he indeed is when Dwight spies on Oscar's house to see if his sick day is legitimate, and he sees Oscar arrive home from shopping with a man (his boyfriend Gil). Later, in Oscar's living room, all three watch TV on the sofa with Dwight in the middle and the two gay guys holding hands behind Dwight's back. Dwight apparently has no idea what's going on with Oscar.
Oscar plays "Hate Ball" with Kevin
[edit] Season 3:
