The crew must contend with the disastrous fallout on the season finale of The Orville. "The Road Not Taken" is the 14th episode of the show's second season.
On The Orville Season 2 Episode 12, Admirals Tucker (Ron Canada), Halsey (Victor Garber), Ozawa (Kelly Hu), and Perry (Ted Danson) look to Captain Mercer (Seth MacFarlane) to solve the newest interplanetary dilemma.
Mercer: Y'know what the worst days are, Olix? The days when you can't stay busy. No Krill confrontations. No spatial anomalies. Just nothing going on. And all your thoughts just march inward. Olix: So most days.
Mercer: How long you had that thing? Bartender: I had the computer replicate it last week. I'm trying to warm the place up a little bit, y'know? Get a nice vibe going. Mercer: The late-night-jazz-depressed-guy-at-the-bar vibe? I can help you with that.
