@dgw Possibly more came over... they did a scan at that exact moment... doesn't say if anymore will come since they hear the fire.
@snydez What do you mean? The TCAS in a modern-day aircraft will say "Too low, terrain" repeatedly if the plane is too low and in danger of hitting terrain—they inserted the same behavior into the Orville shuttlecraft used in this episode, probably as a gag/nod.

The very first line of the episode is a Family Guy reference? Please, Stewie's "mom" gag has no place here.
Nice to hear that TCAS survived into the 25th century and is equipped on spacefaring shuttlecraft.
Actually, I cracked up a bit when the shuttle's computer started chanting, "Too low, terrain."
I wonder if Dr. Finn is a distant descendant of Kevin (of Kevin (Probably) Saves the World)…
The character concept for Isaac is fine enough, but every time they show him walking around his costume messes with it. An artificial life form of Isaac's type just doesn't look right with a fabric outer garment, especially because his garment is clearly designed to look like a metal exterior.
Also, continuity issue: When the Orville detects the aliens approaching the shuttle, Bortus reports "two dozen" unidentified life forms. From when Isaac begins stunning the approaching attackers to when Marcus joins him, Isaac has already fired at least 22 shots (yes, I went back and counted them). Yet, there is still a large number of aliens for them to deter. So many that they are nearly overwhelmed before the shuttle from the Orville bombards the aliens with weapons fire from the air. Something's not right there…
