How bad would this look on my transcript?

I’m a Dornsife student enrolled in the 2-unit Engineering102/Freshman Academy class, planning on transfering into Viterbi next semester. The class is required for every freshman with an engineering major, but those who are transfering in are excempt. My Viterbi counselor told me back in Aug. that I could drop the class, but I kept it out of sheer interest. It’s credit/no credit, and to get credit, you basically need good attendance + to attend 2 out of 4 available outside-of-class lectures. I was unable to make the first two, so I was gonna attend 3 & 4. However, I accidentally missed #3, and since there’s only one left, I won’t be able to meet the requirement. Question: How bad would it look to have the class on my transcript without the credit for it, considering its relative unimportance? I know it won’t be a big deal for Viterbi, but I’m worried about how it would look to internship/job interviewers, scholarship committees, etc. Thanks.
