Get multiple select menu values on submit

Searched around but couldn't find a solution to this. I'm essentiall building a time/date form with a submit button. (See picture). When i interact, i see the individual events come through the collector, but i'm trying to grab all values at the end when submit is pressed, and i'm having a few issues. If the user likes the default options, and just hits "Submit" how can i fetch the values from the select menus? since none have emitted an event?

So store the initial default state, update that state if/when a menu changes, and then end everything on submit instead of having submit return values in some manner
