The Orville 2.01

Ja'loja

Bortus invites Captain Mercer and the officers of the Orville to Ja'loja, a ceremony on a planet of his choosing where he will urinate. Bortus and his kind only urinates once a year.

Kelly reveals to Ed that she is dating someone on board but won't tell him who. He finds out by spying on her but she catches him in the act. Her new boyfriend is more understanding than she is which makes Kelly angrier than she already was.

Dr. Finn's older son gets caught with a couple of his friends drinking vodka that they cooked up using a replicator. The parents of one of the other boys think that Marcus, Claire's son, is the one who rigged the repicator. She turns to Isaac for help.

Gordon asks John for help. He wants to ask Janel Tyer, the new cartographer aboard the Orville, to be his date to Ja'loja but he is nervous about approaching her.

Alara allows herself to be set up on a blind date.

Thoughts

Is Janel going to become a recurring cast member? What about Cassius, Kelly's new boyfriend?

This was a fun episode. I like the humor in it. It was a good way to start the season. All of the little storylines worked for me.
