Commander Grayson, everybody.

Come on, how terrific is she, huh?

That's just great. All
right, coming up next,

we have Lieutenant Commander Bortus.

- Where is Bortus?
- I am Bortus.

W-W-W-Wai-Wait.

You actually sing?

Well, get on up here, big guy.

Let's show everybody what you can do.

- Good luck.
- Come on! -Yeah! -Whoo!

Lieutenant Malloy taught me this song.

I will now sing it.

Yeah!

You will be silent!

Is this... is this happening?

I-I...

- -MAN
Bridge to Captain.

We're receiving a high-priority message

from Admiral Halsey at Union Central.

Send it to the briefing room.

I'm sorry to interrupt you
during your off hours.

No, no. Your timing
was actually perfect.

Are you familiar with the
Navarian-Bruidian conflict?

Over Lopovius? Sure.

You might have to refresh my memory.

They're two races who
have been fighting over

the planet Lopovius forever.

They each say they colonized it first.

They've got some bloody history,

and they're on the brink of war again...

which would be a disaster,
because they're

right on the border of Union
space, and you can bet

- they'll drag their allies into it.
- How can we help?

An ancient artifact has been
discovered on Lopovius.

The Bruidians and Navarians

have agreed to allow it to
be examined for residual DNA

by a neutral Union archaeologist.

If either species' DNA
signature is found,

that race can lay claim to the planet.

I got to say, that sounds kind of shaky.

Do we really think the loser
will honor the agreement?

I'm skeptical, too, but
that's what they say.

They've agreed to have the Orville host

while they await the results.

The artifact is currently
aboard the USS Olympia.

You will rendezvous with
her in orbit of Lopovius,

where you'll take on board
a forensic archaeologist

who will perform the tests.

And the Navarians and Bruidians

are each going to send
an ambassador and staff.

Pretty combustible scenario.

They loathe each other,
so be very careful.

But that being said, as
long as they're there,

we'd love you to take one last
run at informal peace talks.

The best option would be if
they could share Lopovius.

Well, we'll do our best.

I know you will.

What about accommodations?

Remember, these guys hate each other.

I can put them on C and G decks
on opposite sides of the ship,

which should lower the risk

of them running into each
other unsupervised. -Perfect.

All right, let's try
not to screw this up.

Gordon, set a course for
Lopovius, and engage

- quantum drive.
- Aye, sir.

Hard to believe that little planet

is the cause of so much conflict.

Shuttle bay reports the
archaeologist is arriving now.

All right, let 'em know we're
on our way. What's his name?

They're sending
a personnel file.

I'll let you know as soon as I have it.
Send it to our comms.

Aye, sir.

Oh, my God.

What is the matter?

Aw...

Ensign Brooks, put a
hold on the shuttle.

The shuttle just docked.

Crap.

It's Darulio.

The guy she cheated with?

The one with the stuff
coming out of his head?

- How did you know about that?
- You told me.

Oh. Yeah.

Uh...

That's him.

That's our forensic archaeologist.

Oh, my God.

I can't believe this.
How-how is this happening?

Yeah, I know. Awkward situation.

I am so sorry.

Look, I've been digging on Lopovius

for the past six months.

I just heard on the way over here

it was gonna be you guys.

If I'd have had more time, I
would have recused myself.

Well, I'm sorry you
didn't have more time.

Look, Ed...

Can I call you Ed? I...
We've never actually met.

Well, you were screwing
my wife at the time,

so I guess we all kind of
just forgot our manners.

Oh, for God's sakes,
don't make this worse.

No, no, no, Kel, it's fine.

He's entitled to his feelings

and the space to express them.

Look, can I just cut
through some of this?

I think we can all agree

that the end of the
bloodshed on Lopovius

would be a wonderful thing.

And I think... that's bigger
than the three of us.

I'm just saying...

I'm here to work.

What about you guys?

Fine.

Hey, hey, guys.

Alara, show Darulio
here to his stupid lab.

Ed?

Were you just trying to shut the doors?

No, I was not.

I know what you're thinking, but
don't you even put this on me.

I cannot believe
you slept with that guy,

- I really can't.
- Here we go. Is me apologizing

for the 900th time somehow
gonna make a difference?

Did you hear what he said just now?

He goes, he goes:
I am entitled to my feelings

and the space to express them.

My God, thank you for
lighting me on fire

and then giving me
permission to be in pain.

You know what? I really don't
like your tone right now.

Oh, I'm sorry, Kel, are you
uncomfortable? Are you?

Well, you know what you should do?
You should...

Whoa. Top brass alert.

Captain. Commander.

- What's up?
- Hello.

We should get some music
in these elevators, huh?

A little soundtrack to our lives.

What do you think?

Yeah. We'll look into it.

Sweetness.

You know, I got some
playlists I could send you.

Oh, yeah, it closes for you.

What do you want to do, Ed?

Is-is there anything to do?

Is there another forensic archaeologist

specializing in ancient Lopovian pottery

in this star system who
you haven't had sex with?

No? Then I'll be fine.

Yeah. You seem fine.

Your quarters are right next to the lab.

There's a food synthesizer in
there, and there are lab techs

standing by if you need anything.

Amazing.

So... you know Kelly and Ed?

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

Did you guys, like, go
to school together...?

Oh! Oh, man! I am so sorry!

No, no, it's my fault. I'm an idiot.

- Yaphit, are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine. It's all good.

What is all this stuff?

It's nothing. Just some stuff.

Uh, hey, can I get that
back, please? -Hmm?

Oh. I'm... so sorry.

- Uh...
- Just put it anywhere, guy.

You don't have
to find my G-spot.

There you go. Nice work.

Okay, I'll see you guys later.

And we're done with all of his shots.

What a brave little guy you are, Topa.
Thank you, Dr. Finn.

Bortus, will you be home for dinner?

I have already told you,

we have an important
diplomatic assignment...

- I must work late.
- Very well.

We will just spend another
night by ourselves.

- You guys having a rough time?
- All we do is fight.

Klyden will not stop eating,
the child never sleeps,

and we have not resumed normal...
relations.

Why do people have babies?

Well, the first year's tough.

You guys'll find a rhythm.

Excuse me. I hope I'm not interrupting.

- Oh, my God.
- Dr. Claire Finn,

- these are for you.
- Yaphit, I'm extremely busy.

Look, I'm gonna go for broke...
I'm here to ask you out

to dinner, and I'm not gonna
take no for an answer.

Then we have a problem...

because "no" is the only
answer I have for you.

Well, let's see if you
still feel that way

in five minutes.

Yaphit.

Yaphit, stop it right now.

This is a medical facility, and you are

- way out of line.
- Look, just give me a chance, huh?

I really care about you.

I see how warm you are.

I see what a good mother you
are to those awful boys.

I see how smart and
funny and wise you are.

And I...

I love you. Okay? I love you.

Yaphit, the answer is no.

Look, you've been coming in here
for months pulling this crap.

If it happens again, I'm gonna submit

a formal complaint. Now go!

All right.

I had to give it my best shot.

I won't bug you again.

Oh, hey.

Hey.

I just wanted to check in
and see how it's going.

Oh, really well so far.

The detail in these carvings
is really something.

When do you think you might
have some information?

Well, these scans will
have to be analyzed,

and if we find any residual DNA,

that'll have to be cross-referenced

against present-day samples of
both species, so... few days?

Sounds good.

You didn't have to come
all the way down here

just to get a status update.

Okay, um...

I do have something to say.

I really regret what
happened between us,

and it's never gonna happen again.

I've put a lot of time

into rebuilding my relationship with Ed.

Oh, you two are back together?

No. Oh, God, no.

He would never trust
me in that way again.

I meant as professionals.

I just want to make it clear.

Wha... Wha-What are you doing?

You just had a stray hair.

Oh.

Thanks.

What's... different?

- You look great.
- I gave up sugar.

And I'm doing an hour of
headstand meditation a day.

- Really?
- Mm.

You can totally tell.

I mean, the whites of your
eyes are, like, super white.

Really makes your skin pop.

Oh, thanks. It's all circulation, yeah.

And it really helps with everything.

Mental focus, clarity,
you know, muscle tone.

Sex drive.

Yeah?

Oh, God, you know, it is just so hard

to take care of yourself on the ship.

It's, like, where's the
me time, you know?

Where is the you time?

Captain, the Bruidians have arrived,

and the Navarians are approaching.

However, the shuttle bay is reporting

there is no one there to receive them.

Kelly's supposed to be down there.
Where is she?

Internal scan shows her in her quarters.

What the hell?

Kel?

Kelly, the Bruidian ambassadors

are here, and there...

Oh, no.

I...

Ed, hang on. I can explain.

I don't need it explained.
You're a sexual jihadist!

Lower your voice and calm down, okay?
I can explain.

Oh, am I yelling? Am I yelling?

Are you worried people are gonna
hear that you banged Darulio

again when you were supposed
to be in the shuttle bay

preventing a war from starting?
Are you insane?!

Look, I thought we
talked about this, okay.

We can both see whoever we want,
isn't that what we agreed?

Oh, come on. You're not gonna pretend

that that is not
completely out of bounds?

I like him, Ed, okay? I can't help it.

And guess what. I have the right to like

- whoever I want.
- Oh, come on. You're not...

Whoa! We all have to
stop meeting like this.

So, did you have a
chance to talk to anyone

about getting music in these elevators?

You know what, Dann? Why don't
you make that your project, huh?

Why-why don't you look into that?

Will do, Cap'n.

You are all barbarians!

The planet is ours,

and your colonies are a
blatantly hostile incursion!

What's going on?

They went from zero to
furious in two seconds.

And that's your justification

for the killing of innocent civilians?!

What are we supposed to do

when you attack our supply lines
in order to starve us out?!

Starvation would be too noble
a death for your kind.

- Hey! No!
- Oh, hey, hey, hey, guys!

Guys, guys, relax, okay?

Just take a breath, all right?

I know traveling's a
bitch, but calm down.

We're gonna get you all to
your rooms and squared away.

Bruidians, we have salt water
for bathing in your quarters.

Navarians, we've programmed our
food synthesizers to serve

Cavellian Spiceroot for dinner.

Thank you, Captain.

Very thoughtful.

Now, look, I know you've both agreed

to honor the results of
the archaeological tests,

but that means one of you loses big.

So here's what I'm proposing.

Why don't we meet
tomorrow and just talk,

see if maybe there's a way for you both

to peacefully share the planet,

just so we can say we tried?

Fine.

Agreed.

Look at that. We're making
progress already. Terrific.

All right, so why don't you
guys head to your rooms,

relax, have a drink?

Uh, minibar's on the house, so

go bananas on those M&M'S, huh?

All right.

Okay, so what happened exactly?

I don't know. I went to the lab

to tell him there was
nothing between us anymore,

but then I looked into his eyes, and...

I guess I forgot how gorgeous he is.

Gorgeous? Really?

Those aqua blue eyes against
that deep blue skin?

Ridiculous.

My mom redid our bathroom
in those colors.

- I guess it's nice.
- Chardonnay.

He has this magnetism.

And then, the next thing I knew,
we're back in my quarters.

- Wow.
- It's just...

It's hard to explain.

It's like a drug.

Was it like that with Ed?

Totally different.

Ed's the kind of guy you could send out

- for tampons and bagels.
- Hmm.

And he always made me laugh.

That sounds nice.

Yeah, sure, but Darulio...

It's just this super
intense sexual desire,

and this rush every time I see him.

He's all I can think about.

So much so that you forgot about
the arrival of the delegates.

Oh, it's fine. It all worked out.

You know, I think the first
time around with Darulio,

all I could think about was how
badly I messed up with Ed.

And maybe I was so busy feeling guilty

that I missed something.

Missed what?

That I'm in love with him.

Darulio's the one.

He's my soul mate.

Should I get bangs?

How the hell could she do this again?

How-how is this happening?

Yeah, it's not ideal, but, I mean,

it's not like you and Kelly
are still together, so,

- technically, she didn't even...
- No, Gordon.

We're not together because
of that guy, okay?

There is no way to spin this

where her judgment is not
completely off the damn scale.

Okay, well, you know what?

Maybe just focus on
the peace talks, huh?

- That's a good distraction, right?
- No. You know what?

I'm firing that guy.

We'll get a new archaeologist.
It'll be a minor delay.

But he is gone. Darulio is gone.

Pack up your crap. You're fired.

- What?
- You're gone. Right now.

What you did was beyond unprofessional.

It's your ship.

I don't want to cause any trouble.

You don't want any trouble. That is...

- My God, that is hilarious.
- Well, it's too bad,

because we're really
making some progress here.

You-you want to see something cool?

Do I want to see something cool?

Have you heard anything I just said?

Yes, I heard all of it.

And you're absolutely right to be angry.

I-I have no excuse, other than the fact

that I come from a culture

where it is considered
rude to turn down sex.

But if you want to kick
me out, I totally get it.

But I'd love to show
you something first.

Come have a look.

What? What am I looking at?

Ancient DNA. Maybe 30,000 years old.

Is it Bruidian or Navarian?

Incomplete. I need to do
some computer analysis

to see if there are any markers.

Well, how was it preserved?

This artifact?

Turns out it's a birthing bucket.

The DNA was found

in the remnants of placenta
recovered from inside of it.

- You're kidding.
- We should know whether

there are any genetic
markers in 36 hours.

Well, good. Hopefully,
that'll give us some time

to broker some peace.

So, I should just...

give my notes to the next archaeologist.
Is that cool?

You know, um, what'd you say, 36 hours?

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.

Why don't you just stay, you know?

I mean, it's... We can work
through this like adults.

For the sake of the peace.

If that's what you're comfortable with.

Do you, um...

Do you maybe want to get a drink later?

Like, we could meet in
the mess hall, you know.

Something like that.
Just, no-nothing crazy.

- Just-just a drink.
- Just totally cazh?

Yeah, just totally, whatever, you know.

- 8:00?
- Love it.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Groov-ay.

Why did I...? I don't... I don't
know why I just said that.

Groov-ay. I... I've
never said that before

in my life. That's not how I talk.

I don't say those things. That's...

- I'll see you there.
- Yeah.

Claire?

I got off early today.

Can I come in?

I'm gonna give that a big yes.

So... this is your place.

This is it. This is where
the magic happens.

- What's that?
- Oh, well, that's my bed.

Here, I'll show you.

Ah, it's nice just to
be able to spread out

at the end of a long shift.

Tickles.

And what is this?

- Is this you and your mom?
- Kind of.

My species reproduces by mitosis.

That used to be my mom,

but now it's me and my brother.

He got the looks, obviously.

Yaphit.

Yeah?

Do you want to kiss me?

What? I, uh...

Yeah, totally.

I'd like that a lot.

Oh.

What, uh...

what made you change your mind?

Forget about that.

Where do we go from here?

Want to go for a swim?

Come in.

Hi. What's up?

Oh, hey. Glad you're here. I
want to show you something.

Hey, how did it go with Darulio?
Did you send him packing?

Oh, you know, it turns out he's
almost done with his work,

so I just figured might as
well leave it, you know?

Really? I mean, y-you
seemed pretty pissed.

Yeah, you know, we got to talking,

and it turns out he's a pretty cool guy.

Like, really cool, actually.

We're having drinks in a half hour.

You're... meeting for drinks.

Yeah. I mean, it's just...

just drinks, you know. It's no big deal.

It's not like we're getting
married or anything.

- What?
- Check this out.

Wait, are-aren't you supposed to
be mediating the peace talks?

What do you think?

You're gonna wear that to drinks?

- You hate it.
- Very much so, yes.

God, you know, I just... I want
to show some personal style.

You know? Darulio has such great style,

and I just want to
step up to that level.

You seem like you're really into him.

Not into him.

Okay.

But, it's like, what if I was?

You know, what if I was?
Why couldn't I be?

Hey, you can be whatever you want, man.

I just want you to be happy.

I just didn't know you were...

I'm not into him, okay?

But it's like, why do
we have to be so rigid?

You know, why do we have
to have all these rules

and labels and things?

It's like, why-why do we
have to put people in boxes?

You know? Why-why even call a box a box?

I think it's just easier to have words.

Easier for who? Not the box.

Maybe the box wants to do its own thing.

You ever think of that?

Okay, I'm-I'm confused.

Do you want to bang Darulio?

Bang, be banged, but why you
so hung up on labels, man?

You know what? You're the problem.

You are the problem.

You know what, instead of
frantically labeling people

all day long, why don't you
take a look in the mirror? Huh?

Do that for a change.

God, you should be happy for me.

I don't... Wait. What time is it?
Oh, my God.

I'm late. Listen, you gonna be up later?

'Cause I'm gonna give you a call.
All right?

Talk to you soon.

I'm telling you, she's
acting really weird.

It's like she's not even herself.

Could be drugs.

- Our first officer is not on drugs.
- Uh, wake up.

This whole ship's on drugs.

Excuse me. I would like to know

when we can expect the results

of the tests on the artifact.

They should be available soon.

Neither your captain
nor your first officer

have responded to my messages.

Is it your custom to ignore your guests?

There's Captain Mercer now.

I'm sure he can give you
any updates you may need.

Captain, I have been trying
to reach you for two hours.

My people are becoming restless.

Look, just hang tight.
We'll have some info soon.

The Bruidians are openly hostile to us.

We do not wish to remain on
the same vessel with them

- any longer than we must.
- Look, just relax.

Okay? We'll have this
whole thing sorted out

in no time. Excuse me.

Hey.

Hmm. So, I'm standing

- in this huge line for the bathroom...
- Hey there.

Hey. Have a seat. Kelly's
just in the middle

- of telling a story.
- Oh.

- Great.
- Anyway,

so I overhear

my Interspecies Diplomacy
professor bragging

to a bunch of people about
how he thought I wanted

- to hook up with him, and...
- With Professor Fincher?

- Yes! The same.
- What?

Such a scumbag, right?

- So, then I walk up to him...
- Yeah, yeah.

You pushed him in the pool. She
pushed him in the pool. Revenge!

Girl power! Yay! Oh, my God.

I've heard this story,
like, a thousand times.

So, how was the rest of your day?

Ed, what are you doing here?

Darulio and I made
plans to have a drink,

so that's starting now.

Our drink plan.

Well, why don't we just
all have a drink, then?

Sure.

Well, actually, we had some stuff
that we wanted to discuss.

Um... Oh, by the way,

the Navarians are getting
kind of cranky over there.

Maybe you could go distract
them with your breasts.

You know what, I'm
gonna grab us a drink.

- Everybody want a round?
- Sure.

I'll have what you're having.

What are you doing? Are
you messing with me?

Is this punishment?

Wow, what a narcissist you are.

No, this is not punishment.

I happen to think he's a cool guy.

You think he's a cool guy?

Yeah, that's what I said.

Are you wearing cologne?

So?

Did you pluck your eyebrows?

No.

Oh, I know these moves.

These are your stupid moves.

- You used them on me.
- What are you talking about?

The accidental hand touching?

The excessive grooming?

I hate to break it to you,
but you're not his type.

Well, we'll just see
about that, won't we?

Oh, this is gonna be so sad.

Yeah, maybe for you.

- Hey, hey.
- Hey.

- Here you go. Let's have a toast.
- Ah.

To old friends.

To new beginnings.

Commander, the Bruidians are asking

to speak with the bridge.

Put them through.

Good day, Ambassador.

I trust you slept well last night.

Where is the captain?

I am Lieutenant Commander Bortus.

Captain Mercer is attending

- to other matters.
- We have reason to believe

that the Navarians are exerting
an influence over the test,

and I have not been able
to reach Captain Mercer

or Commander Grayson.

I assure you, no one is
getting special treatment.

I want to speak to Captain Mercer.

I will look into the matter
and contact you soon.

Bridge out.

Where are the captain and the commander?

The last time I saw them,
they were in the mess hall.

But, sir...

the commander's been
acting very weird lately.

Weird?

Well, she's, like,
obsessed with Darulio.

- It's all she talks about.
- You know,

Ed's been acting really strange

with Darulio, too.

He seems... kind of into him.

What do you mean "into him"?

I mean, into him.

Your statement is confusing.

Has the captain entered Mr.
Darulio in some fashion?

Not yet.

Marcus, Ty.

What are you guys doing on the bridge?

My mom's been locked in
her office for hours,

and she won't answer the door.

Claire, are you in there?

Oh, my God!

All right. Now, what can I do for you?

What the hell did I just walk in on?

Yeah, you're lucky I'm so easygoing.

There's a little thing
called privacy, you know.

Claire, we are in sickbay.

And you were just doing

I don't know what with Yaphit.

You hate Yaphit!

Alara, I just never gave him a chance.

But when I finally

allowed myself to take
down my walls, I realized

what an idiot I've been.

Yaphit and I are soul mates.

We're going to get married.

Yeah, a lot of soul mates
around here lately.

My God!

You should be happy for me.

I'm in love.

Bortus to Lieutenant Kitan.

Hang on. Just... stay right there.

Go ahead.

The Bruidians and the Navarians
are both threatening

to withdraw from the agreement

and to settle their conflict in battle.

Oh, great.

The computer shows the
captain and the commander

near Science Lab 1, but
they are not responding.

I'm on my way there. Tell
the delegates to stand by.

Are you all done in there?

I want to go for round two.

Yaphit, listen to me.

You are not to have any
contact with Claire

until I figure out what's going on.

- Understand?
- Hey, man,

the jelly wants what the jelly wants.

Not today. I am giving
you a direct order.

Go back to your quarters,
and do not answer the door.

Wait, wh-why?

Because I said so!

You have beautiful hands.

Thank you. Well, based on

the computer's progress,

we should have our answers very shortly.

You're a genius.

Hey, Dar. Hey, listen,

I know it's your last night here,

and since you have to work late,

I made us a little dinner.

Some sandwiches. Banana bread.

- Bottle of rosé.
- That is so sweet.

Oh, it's just like the
dinner I made for you

when you were studying
for your officer's exam.

This isn't your dry-ass
banana bread, Kelly.

This is my own recipe.

I thought maybe we could
have a little picnic,

- just you and me.
- Oh, sounds great.

But I-I thought we were
gonna watch a movie.

Oh. W-Well, Ed was being so thoughtful,

and I'd hate for all that
good food to go to waste.

Okay.

Commander, the delegates
are at the boiling point.

I really think now's the
time for that mediation.

Oh, they've been squawkin'
since they got here.

- They'll be fine.
- Sir.

I really think it's important.

Besides, I need to talk
to Darulio, anyway.

There's been a technical issue
with his security clearance.

It's fine. We'll go.

Ed didn't have any other plans, anyway.

All right, fine.

- Dinner in my quarters after?
- Deal.

Yes!

Alara to Isaac.

Do me a favor and escort the delegates

to the conference room.

Yes, Lieutenant.

Okay, what the hell's going on here?

What are you talking about?

I want to know what you're doing

to the captain, the
commander and Dr. Finn.

They're all acting like insane
teenagers, and it started

when you came on board. Talk.

Okay, you got me.

Once a year, members of my
species go through heat.

We release a pheromone

though our skin to
help us attract mates.

It's transferred through touch.

I didn't mean to affect Ed

and Kelly, but it probably happened

when we shook hands in the shuttle bay.

And now they're both in artificial,
crippling love with you.

Oh, there's nothing artificial about it.

They're experiencing feelings.

Chemically induced feelings,

I grant you, but feelings nonetheless.

And what about Claire? Why
is she all into Yaphit?

I tripped over Yaphit in the corridor.

His gelatinous membrane must
have absorbed my pheromones,

and then he transferred
them to the doctor somehow.

He was bringing her flowers.

A gelatinous life-form as a
Retepsian pheromonal carrier.

Could you believe it?

Oh, so this is all just
a big joke to you.

Look, it's harmless.

The worst thing that happens...

we all have great sex.

- It'll pass.
- When?

A few days.

You do realize that if the
Bruidians and the Navarians

go to war, it's all your fault.

Girlfriend, you are making
way too big a deal of this.

We're going to sickbay. Now.

- You're a snake.
- Hey, it's not my fault

Darulio likes me better than you.
That's because

he doesn't know what a piece of crap

you really are.

You know, there really is
some justice in all this.

I wind up with the guy
who you cheated with

- during our marriage.
- Yeah, and when he finds out what

a terrible decision he's made,
he'll jump ship just like I did.

You can't hurt me right now.
You cannot hurt me.

I'm way too happy. And you may as well

be happy for me, instead of
acting like a total bitch.

Hey. I got 'em to put the music in.

If there's any songs you guys want to...

I'm sorry, but do you
just ride up and down

the freakin' elevator all day?!

Is that your freakin' job?!

You're all good, man.

Sorry to keep you guys waiting.

So, lots to catch up on, huh?

- What's the latest?
- That is what we would like to know.

Where are the results of
the test on the artifact?

They'll be ready soon. Just be patient.

We have been patient enough!

You have ignored our inquiries
since we came aboard!

The Navarian claim to
Lopovius must be cemented!

Over our bloodied corpses.

We shall be happy to accommodate.

We will make it our prime
objective to wipe out

your entire world, down to
the last living creature.

You know what, I'm sorry,
I have to interrupt here

for a second, because I cannot
hold this in any longer.

I have met the most amazing guy.

And you know how when you meet someone,

you just have to share it
with the whole world...

Enough! This mediation is a sham!

You can expect the arrival
of the Bruidian Fleet.

It will be met with a superior force.

Well, I got a date.

Well, that's it.

Nothing at all in the
Union medical database.

It would appear so. Thank you
for your help, Nurse Park.

Guys, I'm telling ya, it wears off.

You're dismissed.

And confined to quarters
until further notice.

You guys are being
so silly about this...

- You can walk or I can carry you.
- All right, I'm going.

Isaac to bridge.

We have analyzed a sample of Mr.
Darulio's pheromone,

and there appears to
be no known antidote.

- Acknowledged.
- Commander, we got company.

Bruidian warships, 7,000
kilometers and closing.

Looks like their entire fleet.

Magnify image.

Scanners are showing a
second fleet farther out.

Also headed our way.

- The Navarians.
- Looks like it.

Raise deflectors.

Oh, man, this is not good.

Isaac, where is the captain?!

Internal scan shows he
is in his quarters.

Bortus to Captain Mercer.

Bridge to Captain Mercer.

- Please respond.
- Don't answer,

don't answer, I'm not
here, I'm not here.

Bridge to Commander Grayson.

Bridge to Commander Grayson.

Those fleets are about
to destroy each other.

I love your big blue head.

But shouldn't you be on the bridge?

Ugh. I'm always on the bridge.

This is where I want to be right now.

But you're the captain.

And there's a war starting out there.

The only thing I'm captain of right now

is your taut physique.

Now get over here.

Here they are, Commander.

Order your fleets to
stand down immediately.

My fleet will stand down

when the last enemy ship is destroyed.

For once, I'm in agreement.

Your Union has been entirely
useless in this affair.

We will handle it ourselves from here.

We cannot afford to have
this conflict escalate.

Stand down.

Lieutenant, confiscate their
communication devices

- and confine them to quarters.
- Aye, sir.

Sir, it may be possible to reconfigure

and extend our deflectors to create

a partial barrier
between the two fleets.

That would buy us some time.
Contact Engineering.

Isaac to Chief Newton.

How much time would be required

to configure the deflectors

to the following specifications?

I can do it fast, but only with Yaphit.

He's the only one who can get
to those conduits quick enough.

Lieutenant Yaphit,
report to Engineering.

On my way, sir.

Mr. Darulio.

I know, I'm under house arrest,
but please just hear me out.

There may be a way that I can help.

Where are you going?

Claire! I'm, uh,

I'm on my way to Engineering.

What are you doing with that weapon?

Why haven't you called me?

I've left you, like, 900 messages.

Um, yeah, well, I was told...

What, you just want to slime all over me

and then kick me to the curb?

Why haven't you called me back?

Claire, I-I really have to get to...

Answer the question.

Sir, the fleets
have opened fire on each other.

Chief Newton,

what is the status of the deflectors?

Sir, we're still waiting on Yaphit.

He never made it to Engineering.

Commander, permission to

open a wide-band channel to both fleets.

- Lieutenant?
- Trust me.

Do it.

You're on, guys.

Bruidian fleet, stand down

and return to the home planet.

Navarian fleet, stand down as well.

I've reached an agreement

with the Bruidian ambassador.

An agreement?

Come on, you can tell them the truth.

Well, I...

I don't want them to know
before my parents know.

Oh, my God.

You're going to make me cry.

Sir, both fleets
have disengaged.

They're heading away.

Well, everything looks good, Captain.

How you feeling?

Uh, I'm fine.

Little weirded out, but otherwise fine.

- How about you?
- Same.

I'm not looking forward
to seeing Yaphit again,

- I can tell you that much.
- Yeah.

Nurse Park, I'm putting
a special commendation

on your record.

The medical computer did the work, sir.

I-It was just a souped-up version

of Mr. Darulio's pheromone.
All we had to do was embed it

in the Bruidian's sweat glands,
and it was love at first sight.

The only hard part was
getting them to shake hands.

All right, I think
you're cleared for duty.

Thanks, Doc.

Come in.

Listen, I...

Can we just not talk about it? Ever?

You know, I was gonna
ask you the same thing,

but I was afraid I'd sound like a dick.

You don't.

Well, even so...

I'm sorry.

Well, we have a more
immediate problem anyway.

What happens when the
pheromone wears off?

The ambassadors are in love
now, but in a few days

they'll remember they
hate each other again.

Not necessarily.

I just finished my analysis.

It turns out the DNA in the artifact

is both Bruidian and Navarian.

They have a common ancestor.

They both have a claim to Lopovius.

They'll have to share it.

Well, that makes things a lot easier.

Yes.

Can I just say

- that I feel kind of...
- Darulio.

Thank you for your report.

The Olympia has just arrived,

and there's a shuttle waiting for you.

Okay.

Darulio, wait.

A year ago, when we met...

were you in heat then?

Maybe.
