Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn the bar, Ensign Burke says that she's from Texas before she drinks a shot of bourbon. Actress Anne Winters is actually from Dallas, TX.
- GoofsWhen Gordon takes Ed and Kelly home they seem surprised he's married to Laura yet in the Obituary it is stated that Gordon married Laura in 2019.
It's plausible that Ed and Kelly haven't read the whole obituary, because as high ranking officers of the Orville they are not expected to bother themselves with details. Furthermore, even if they have read the obituary, they may have simply forgotten this detail, and they didn't expect to see Gordon married because they hadn't aimed at retrieving him from the year 2025 (they expected to arrive in the year 2015). And lastly, their reaction may not be one of surprise due to finding out that he is married, but rather one of a shocking realization that bringing Gordon back is not going to be easy.
- Alternate versionsThe originally streamed version of the episode contains what some consider a paradox (under certain time travel rules): Gordon's distress call says that he's been stranded in 2015 for 6 months, and when the final rescue takes place, LaMarr's report on their time jump says Gordon arrived "about a month ago". Both lines of audio (but not LaMarr's mouth) were later altered to avoid the possibility of paradox: the distress call says 3 months, and LaMarr says "four months ago".

Featured review
OMG ! This was really touching.
Well, my favorite ep. Of Orville was S02E11. Where Gordon and Laura 'met' - it was nice kind of cyber love story. Was not surprised that they made new episode about/involving them . And this reminded me a bit on my favorite ep. Of original Star Trek - yes, Orville is pretty much like Star Trek TOS, and that's good thing. So, there was time travel ep. With Joan Collins called City on Edge of Forever. With sad ending like this. Recommend to watch it if did not see.
I would give it 10, but maybe should work little more on whole time travels, especially that 99.9999 of speed of light was out of space for ships traveling way more than thousand times faster than poor Einstein's snail .
Part with Ensign and Isaac was nice too.
