New Dimensions
Commander Grayson recommends that Lieutenant LaMarr be considered for promotion when the Engineering Chief gets transferred off of the Orville. Yaphit is next in line for that job which creates some friction between himself and LaMarr.
Captain Mercer finds out that Commander Grayson was partly responsible for him getting command of the Orville. He doesn't take it well and is resentful of what she did for him.
The Orville encounters an anomaly in space that leads to two-dimensional space. They retreat to the 2-D space when they detect that a Krill ship is approaching. The 2-D space would crush them but Lt. LaMarr comes up with a scheme to protect them.
The episode ends with Lieutenant LaMarr getting promoted to Lieutenant Commander and becoming Chief Engineer.
This episode wasn't awful but there was a lot here that felt forced. Mercer's anger seemed childish at best and seemed to indicate that he never would have been made captain of the Orville without Grayson's help. Despite the beautiful visuals in the 2-D space it felt kind of wasted. The view was just something for them to look at.
