From Quiz "The Orville" IV

Answer: "Nothing. We were all just wondering when you decided to join the fire department."

Bortus's mate, Klyden, is also displeased with the mustache and wants Bortus to shave it off.

3. In episode one, when Ed catches Kelly in bed with the Retepsian named Darulio, what happens when Darulio pops his head out from under the covers?

Answer: They hide on the event horizon of a black hole.

In the episode, Bortus's old boyfriend Locar comes onboard and Klyden immediately becomes jealous. Klyden discovers that Locar is attracted to females and intends to expose him. On Moclas, preferring females to males is a punishable crime. Also, suicide is not an option because it is considered a dishonorable act which would dishonor his entire family. Locar instead programs the holodeck to make it look like Klyden murders him. Locar then cloaks himself and hides in a shuttle in the hope that he can sneak to another planet. His plan fails and he is taken into custody and sent back to Moclas to stand trial.
