Summary
The Orville crew leads a Union delegation to sign a peace treaty with the Krill.
Our Take
A tense political hour that trades the show’s usual comedy for Cold War-style paranoia, and it mostly works. The guest cast is strong and the moral questions feel genuinely uncomfortable rather than tidy. Some plot beats are predictable, but the ending lands hard enough to justify the trip. Worth watching even if Krill episodes aren’t usually your thing.
