The Orville is really beginning to show a knack for action focused episodes, and for bringing stories full-circle.

On The Orville Season 3 Episode 9, “Domino,” several ‘dominoes’ begin to fall that were set up in previous episodes during Season 3. “Domino,” in fact, knocks down so many dominoes that viewers may wonder what’s left for the season finale. 

“Domino” taps into several stories from previous episodes in the season. The failed alliance with the Krill, the Moclan expulsion from the union, — and the more personal stories like Ed’s secret child and the Kaylon conflict — all come into play here.
