The Orville Season 4 Potential Plot
Season 3 ended on a hopeful yet tense note, setting the stage for The Orville Season 4. The Planetary Union forged an alliance with the Kaylons, but the Moclans and Krill remain a formidable threat. Here’s what we might see:
- Krill-Moclan Alliance Escalation: After their failed attempt to destroy the Kaylons, the Krill and Moclans could launch an all-out war against the Union. Krill Supreme Chancellor Teleya, now on trial for war crimes, might serve as a rallying point for this conflict.
- Kaylon Integration: With the Kaylons as Union allies, Season 4 could explore their assimilation into the crew and the challenges this brings—especially for Isaac and Claire.
- Personal Stakes: Bortus’ family dynamics, Gordon’s growth, and Ed’s leadership will likely deepen, especially if Kelly’s absence requires a new first officer.
