I watched this episode with someone who I just turned to watching all the other Trek. We wanted to watch the Orville together but it wasn't happening at this point so STD was chosen.

Explaining the precedings to her she quickly noted the absurdity in the plots and noticed plenty of the nuisances people without Trek-knowledge would have (the lights, Burnham, the dramatic pauses, "friends forevah" attitudes and Tilly's being "out of place" as she said in being oberly quircky and explaining everything with very basic analogies).

I'm not gonna repeat the same shit I've been saying before but i'm pretty much saying it here I guess.

So a few notes:
- Tilly seemed out of breath, guess she had to use those non-marathon muscles
- It's like cheese parmagane
- Burnham figured it out, it's the numbers in reverse. Why didn't she crashland on the Island from LOST?
- So the mother who stole those digital documents that only have one copy in whole Star Fleet pretty much did that just for the heck of it? Hiding Spock (well, he isn't really... but... fine...) pretty much on the homeplanet that's not a desert at all.
- Everything is great when you put time in front of it!
- Today is compliments day and we sure had a lot of those on the episode.
- So the sentient robot lady (or is she... Data and Lore were the first no?) is now infected with a timetravelling virus from the future that's also red... Red is evil. Where's blue... Isaac's eyes were still blue even though everyone else's were red.

@mansemat Isaac would rip Airiam to pieces, and be verbally condescending while doing it.

@maeron So timetravel-virus-infected Airiam is the ancestor of the Kaylons and will in the future timetravel-infect her homeplanet in the past, which will lead to the events of genocide on Kaylon biological lifeforms like seen in "The Orville", and Stames has not a single bullshit-DNA-explains-everything-10sec-solution??? omfg now I finally know why Starfleet doesn't exist in The Orville.

BTW / to be fair:
Killing highly advanced Kaylon-robot-lifeforms with an EM-Pulse (if then: signal strength would also harm human brains) is lazy writing, as it is on infecting a highly advanced Robot-lifeform against his will with an virus (time/future is no excuse) through optical sensors.
Stupidity is the illness/virus of today:(
