Identity - Part 1
Isaac stops functioning. The crew of the Orville can't figure out how to help him. Captain Mercer, after consulting with the Admiral Halsey, sets a course for Kaylon 1, Isaac's home world.
The Orville arrives on Kaylon 1. They bring the comatose Isaac out of the ship with them. The Kaylons bring Isaac back online. Captain Mercer expresses thanks and invites Isaac to rejoin them aboard the Orville but Isaac says his mission is over.
Ty and Marcus, Dr. Finn's sons, are disappointed to learn that Isaac will not be coming back to the Orville. Isaac explains his reasons to them in person but it doesn't make them feel any better. Ty takes it especially hard. Dr. Finn is also very hurt by Isaac's decision to leave the Orville.
The crew of the Orville throw a going away party for Isaac. He accepts but doesn't fully understand the gesture. Isaac returns to his people after the party. Ty finds a drawing that he made of Isaac with his mother, Marcus and himself. He gave it to Isaac at the party but Isaac left it behind. Ty takes the picture and goes looking for Isaac. He discovers underground caverns filled with bones.
Dr. Finn, Talla, and Bortus go looking for Ty. They find him in the caverns that are filled with bones. They relay this information to Captain Mercer. Isaac, when asked, explains that the bones are of the race of people who built the Kaylons. Captain Mercer decides that it is time for the Orville to leave but Isaac and the Kaylons think otherwise. They take over the Orville and plot a course for Earth.
Thoughts
The Kaylons are basically identical to one another. Isaac has blue glowing eyes but all the other Kaylons have red glowing eyes. I don't think any of the Kaylons have names like Isaac.
This is part one of two. I'm intrigued by this episode but I have some doubts as to the second episode. I feel that they made the stakes so high that it will be difficult for the second installment to satisfy me.
