Well, then. That explains rather a lot about the tone.
This is such a rehash of several other Star Trek franchise stories (see @Abstractals' review for the main influences) that it's hard to give the story too much credit. Like many other episodes of The Orville, the resolution feels rushed and trite, predictable to a fault and ultimately unsatisfying. It's a shame because most of the stories could be truly amazing if given the proper attention (and if most of the lame jokes were taken out, of course).
