2.07 has to be the most serious episode yet. It felt just like a particularly preachy TNG episode. I also feel that the Orville needs a Ship's Counsellor far more than the Enterprise ever did. It is just one relationship problem after another. Also, we have probably focused on the Moclan society too much now.
A couple of not so spoilery things. Firstly, I do think that Kelly has been leading Cassius on. Cassius has done nothing wrong or changed in any way from the start of the relationship. Secondly, I can't see how the relationship between Klytus and Bortas can survive what happened this week on top of what already happened with the daughter.
Jokes were thin on the ground this week. Was the cupcakes scene even remotely funny? Or Isaac, asking the crew about pleasurable sexual positions for the benefit of Claire. What I did find funny was the scene when Talia tells Gordon and John it "must have been the most insane thing that had ever happened" on the Orville. They then tell her about when John almost died because he "humped a statue," how Isaac once cut off Gordon's leg, how the Captain and Commander got put in a zoo, and "Bortas almost crashed the ship because of porn."
Groogen, the Katrudian (talking plant) in Kelly's quarters, was voiced by Bruce Willis.
