I do not own the Orville or any of the characters. It is the property of FOX and Seth MacFarlane. After Bortus isn't spending enough time with his mate, Klyden wants a divorce, but Moclan divorce is quite sharp
I've heard about honor killing in some culture. This is kind of like that. I bet you'd be surprised to hear if your neighbor was involved in that ritual of honor killing.
Wow! Moclans are even more brutal than the Klingons. To my knowledge, Klingons don't get divorce by sticking a dak'takh inside their partner's chest...
The Moclan's Are incredible weapon designers and that is what got them in the Union.. All the Union saw was the ability to defend themselves with tremendous weapons but short sightedly didn't realize what they were they were bringing it to their own home until it was too late and we got the results at the end of the Season 3. I am not surprised at this at all and there was a precedent set also in star trek where they had the episode where those weapon designers kill themselves making weapons To provide the perfect defense and were themselves the victims of their own brilliance.
@@crem-crem4070 You're missing the point. Besides the fact that that was the line said here, Klyden was born female and was forcibly transitioned due to Moclan customs (just like Topa), but this was only revealed in a much later episode.
I really like how Ed and Kelly kinda bond over this matter. They understand that marriage is hard...but dang...they still respect each other even more so after THAT WITNESS
3:52 - 4:05 One piece of advice to you Captain Mercer: If you're sick and tired of various aspects of Moclan culture, wait until you have met with Captain Picard and how he has to deal with Worf and all the ritualistic shenanigans he brought from the Klingon homeworld 😉
Captain Mercer had it way worse sure the klingons might have been more violent as a whole but the Moclans Were brought into the Union way too quickly without any real knowledge of their culture and society. The Klingons were at least a known quantity to the federation. Poor Mercer spent every day wondering what exciting and horrifing facet of Moclan Culture was to come next. Will they bring a Flame Thrower to the kids birthday party because on Moclan the child needs to live through fire to become a full man.
3:53 "What do they do when it's someone's birthday, light the parents on fire?' Well, I mean, only if they're Giliac. What else are you supposed to do?
For a while I didn’t mind the Moclans. Incredible stomachs, male race and fire power. Pros, cons however is where things get dicey. Especially when it comes to female births, divorces involving stabbing and the occasional being questioning about their culture all the time since it revolves around getting hurt. Seriously I’d rather be on a Klingon home world.
To be fair: I’m pretty sure their vocal cords only have anger, joy, and monotonous as tones. So they might’ve learned to have good phrasing as they speak
Ironically, Ed and Kelly are a divorce couple passing judgment on a couple from a different culture's marriage practices. Not saying they are not right, it is just irony.
Back in the day, men and women used to have their spouse killed rather than go through the "shame" of a divorce. Doesn't seem too different. It's just, out in the open.
"what do they do for their birthdays, set their parents on fire?" this logic follows and i cant help but laugh also holy shit those drinks are ingenious for a toasting
Well, if my ex hadn't left first, that is how this would have gone for me. She did tell me that "It's until death do us part. I mean yours." I can't say "Poor Bortus." He got a divorce! He survived marriage. Poor bastard.
Okay, youre on a Union Ship, you chose to come here, you chose to stay, you play by their rules. Moclans should not be shocked that murder on Union territory is illegal under any circumstance. Klyden should have stayed in the Brig and either exiled back to his planet or placed in prison. That's holding up the laws of your people
I’m not saying I disagree, but they do have a cultural value policy. And it might risk war to kick someone out for doing something of their culture, explanation available or not. I’m going to repeat: I’m not saying I disagree, but I am saying I see what made this the final decision.
@@WardNightstone Okay look I made this comment three years before the 3rd season came out sophist to say I an not a fan of Moclan culture as I was 3 years ago
Ed qnd Kelly mqkw me think of two parents mqnaging a bunch of kids. Star Trek and Star Wars dodn't have to deal with this, but they should have. I LOVE IT
This channel must not be officially affiliated with the Orville production company. I don't think the Orville production company would actually misspell the species name of one of their characters in the title and then 3 years later still not have fixed it.
The amount of times in the show that they seem utterly baffled by an element of culture from another species who allegedly is part of the union makes me think not everybody in the Union does their homework.
Apparently the Mocclans were fast tracked into the Union due to their weapons manufacturing practices. So the Union on the whole didn’t really do their homework aside from ooh weapons yay.
Yeah, I too thought it was fascinating that Sisko's love interest would show up in this universe as well. I did in fact bang both a black and a white Jennifer by the way. :P
yeah it was on purpose. bortus still can’t get pass the fact that klyden had a sex change when he was a baby. then their kid had to go through that same sex change.
I like how they call it "the sexual event".
I really hope Topa's room is soundproofed
They're in space. I think the bulkheads will be thick enough.
Well the vows did say "till death do you part" they didn't say whose death though
and they didn't say natural death
So basically, it's the same as some humans who "divorce" in that very manner!
😅😂🤣👍😁👍
Did the union not do any research before hiring a Moclan, they seem shocked by their culture.
It's a cultural stance. The union most know as a whole, but the members of the Orville are understandable not that knowledge
I guess not!🤷
You could say the same thing of Muslims coming to Western countries.
I've heard about honor killing in some culture. This is kind of like that. I bet you'd be surprised to hear if your neighbor was involved in that ritual of honor killing.
@Quentin Lennox race has nothing to do with this it's cultural issue learn the difference
Wow! Moclans are even more brutal than the Klingons. To my knowledge, Klingons don't get divorce by sticking a dak'takh inside their partner's chest...
At least the Klingon's only backhand and spit on your face a little
@@ScottyDont1945 Ah yes the episode with quark and Grilka was great
Even the Mandalorian in SW aren't that extreme. At most they might end the divorce with a Mirsh'mure'cya (head butt usually in armor AKA Keldabe Kiss)
@@danielhaire6677 Right on!!
I'm pretty sure that quite a few Klingon divorces end in a stabbing to a chest.
"Captain you must release Klyden ;_;"
*"Out of the question >:("*
"pwease"
"ok"
This is how I do when I need to divorce my wife/husband in skyrim. But without a dagger I use a battle axe.
FUS ROH DAH + Cliff
I use lightning
goldbrand for me, gotta get that boost going
... you guys are solemnly... mad.
A battle axe is far more classy
"Day drink?" "DAY DRINK."
I don't recommend the day drink as a matter of routine, but there are times it definitely helps.
That was a pretty day drink

"I did not realize SHE was this unhappy."
...You heard it too, right?
So did I!
Yeah
Clearly says he.
@@AutumnWoodham Get your hearing checked.
@@Bacxaber Get yours checked, it's clearly just an artifact of a strained voice.
3:02 "I did not realize *she* was this unhappy" - SPOILER ALERT
I thought guys were men.

@@MikelosM The line wasn't said here. Bortus says "he" he's just injured and not speaking clearly. The entire rest of the scene is "he" and "his".
@@MikelosM and he still identifies as a he
They revealed klyden's real gender by ep 3 in the first season, this is s2 how the hell is this a spoiler if your here by now?
This show is so gorgeous. That opening shot with the star surface put a lump in my throat for some reason. Thank God for Seth MacFarlane.
which god in particular are you thanking and where in the credits are they.
I really like how Ed and Kelly kinda bond over this matter. They understand that marriage is hard...but dang...they still respect each other even more so after THAT WITNESS
"light their parents on fire?" LOL!!
2:58 That happens on Earth too but it's usually called "true crime."

What do they do on the birthdays, light there parents on fire? 🤣🤣🤣
TheDarkarrow7 considering everything else, probably
I think so yes
Is this the Moclan way of saying : "Not tonight because I have a headache."
More like “not tonight because I’m having an affair with a hologram”
@@CamdenKaneakaNeptunesdaughter : Just as bad.
For a while I didn’t mind the Moclans. Incredible stomachs, male race and fire power. Pros, cons however is where things get dicey.

For a 60 year old woman, Dr Finn has “got it goin’ on”! 😃👍🏻
So did Cassidy Yates in another franchise. Both Finn and Yates seem to love the D.
Like mechanical Donkey Kong!
@@priruss357 And previously she dated Orville's equivalent of Odo (except Yaphit is a full mouthed SOB)
Is dr Finn 60? The charter?
well you have to remember something, she was married to The Sisco.
My favorite thing about Moclans is how aggressive they sound but how loving the intent of their words are. XD
To be fair: I’m pretty sure their vocal cords only have anger, joy, and monotonous as tones.
So they might’ve learned to have good phrasing as they speak
The sexual event
I want one of what Ed and Kelly are drinking.
Ironically, Ed and Kelly are a divorce couple passing judgment on a couple from a different culture's marriage practices. Not saying they are not right, it is just irony.
The Xelayans must make some pretty good hooch.
It’s gorgeous
Well, you can't have the drink but you can have the glasses. They are Norlan Whiskey Glasses.
No lawyers, just clean and simple.
It's interesting because I can imagine an alien species possibly doing this
i never realized the foreshadowing here until season three dropped; that's brilliant
What foreshadowing
@@GameLover45408 the part where Bortus referred to Klyden as “She” hinting or foreshadowing the reveal that Klyden is indeed born female turned male.
Klyden admitted it when Topa was a baby to him.
@@apolloknight9521 But it isn't, it's just his strained voice.
Back in the day, men and women used to have their spouse killed rather than go through the "shame" of a divorce.
Doesn't seem too different. It's just, out in the open.
There’s a reason a lot of men died of stomach flu and mysterious illnesses before No fault divorce. The women were killing their husbands.
"I did not realize she was this unhappy" oh they actually misspoke
Klyden was born female so technically.
The mock characters, have more personality then an entire fucking sequel to star trek...
"what do they do for their birthdays, set their parents on fire?"
this logic follows and i cant help but laugh
also holy shit those drinks are ingenious for a toasting
I kinda wonder if it tastes like a storm
Well, if my ex hadn't left first, that is how this would have gone for me.
She did tell me that "It's until death do us part. I mean yours."
I can't say "Poor Bortus." He got a divorce!

When in Rome, do as the Romans.

"Let us share the sexual event"
The doctor was on Deep Space 9.
Kassidy Yates
That's right! Penny Johnson Jerald played Kasidy on DS9!
Did anybody think Klyden stabbed him because he found out what he was doing in the simulator.
3:02 He called his spouse a she.... tehe
Henry VIII could show the Moclan a thing or two about brutal divorce practices.
God I love Moclan culture :)
Moclans are even more brutal than the Klingons. To my knowledge, Klingons don't get divorce by sticking a dak'takh inside their partner's chest...
haha i was looking for this comment :D
From an outsiders perspective sure lol me too
The transphobia mysogany or body mutilation of children whats your favorite?
@@WardNightstone Okay look I made this comment three years before the 3rd season came out sophist to say I an not a fan of Moclan culture as I was 3 years ago
“There is a limit to how far I’ll go to accommodate cultural diversity among my officers and YOU have just reached it!”
proving again that "please" is the magic word
They handled the mental gymnastics of dealing with that "divorce" just the way I might have.
Great. Kassidy Yates changed careers and became a doctor.
There's plenty of humans that choose this as their preferred method to end their marriages, or someone else's 🧐
I hate to find out what Moclans do when they go through puberty.
I think I know but first do you see that city over there?
Bit of a typo error there, think it should be MOCLAN not Molcan....Still like the video though.
Royz View I didnt even notice
Some poor programmer spent hours coding up a 5 second toast. I don't know if I would be proud or upset.
I don't see the difference to humans. People virtually do the same and it hurts for a time instead of a moment.
We write aliens as reflections of ourselves.

I'm glad klydan left bortus deserves so much better and I'm glad toppa got her birth gender back she's a wonderful girl
What is a Molcan? Do you mean MocLan.
C'mon man. Edit before uploading. It's hard to take you seriously when you make a mistake like this.
What season and episode is this?
Imagine if we murdered our spouses for a divorce. The male species would go extinct.
Male species? Male is a gender not a species. :P
For Centuries it was customary for the Husband to murder his Wife if either wanted a divorce.
Saves money on divorce lawyers
Howyaduing what about criminal defense lawyers?
How high do you think the divorce rate is?
The right responses. Awe you poor baby. Here let daddy rub your feet
Couldn't Bortus have called Klyden to say he'd be late?
Yes, but he was lying. He was in the simulator having sex instead of spending time with Klyden
@@accordgolfer Thanks, I'd forgotten.
@@accordgolferwild💀
Misspelled "Moclan" in the title. ;)
this is what a show looks like when the creator stills gives a shit
'Let us at least share the sexual event'
I'm going to try this line on my wife 😂😂
If we did that on Earth I bet their would be no divorce or possibly even marriages
Moclan, not Molcan.
Moclan not Molcan , title is wrong
If only human divorce was that easy
Till death do we part! Captain & First Officer, Husband & Ex wife having a drink together!
Seems about right
he called his mate .... SHE
Moclan divorce is really final. Can't just walk away with half everyone's stuff can they?
*Bortus gets stabbed*
Subtitles: [Applause]
Why cant marriages be this way lol
*looks around*
No one picked up on the metaphor for female subjication, honor killings, and female genital mutilation?
So if someone cheats, and decides they would rather be with the other person, they can still end the marriage this way? That seems odd.
hold up, they said daydrink.. they are in space day and night mean nothing
They still got to go to sleep, so they have day and night shifts. They turn down the lights so it’s easy to sleep
Yeah, I too thought it was fascinating that Sisko's love interest would show up in this universe as well.
I did in fact bang both a black and a white Jennifer by the way. :P
Mannnnn next time my lady asked for the sexual event and I'm tired I'm sleeping in the car.lol
Moclan, not Molcan. Do you even read before you publish?
Mistakes happen brother, I promise you will live on.
I need one of those 3d generators. Then I can eat unlimited big macs
Hopefully, Melania will watch this and get some ideas!!
ROFL
😅😂🤣👍😁👍
From "sharing sexual event" to "instant murder" lol
0:47 Bortus is the woman in this relationship.
It's MOCLAN
"I did not realize SHE was this unhappy" was that on purpose?
yeah it was on purpose. bortus still can’t get pass the fact that klyden had a sex change when he was a baby. then their kid had to go through that same sex change.
Yeah, dat foreshadowing
Its got some nice CGI and production quality for something that is supposed to be a comedy!
Moclan.... not molcan
Would have saved me a lot of trouble if i could have followed Moclan tradition with my ex.🗡️
Molcan????
Some people still do this when they're ready for divorce especially over an affair graveyard's full of these people
Love that show
Did Klyden have a position on the ship?
Mostly on his back, apparently!
>> runs like hell
😅😂🤣👍😁👍
Besides being a one gender species I really love how Moclans get down!!!
Latchcuuuummmmm !!!! It sums up their culture in a word . 👍😁
😮
The molcan 💀
That's Chad Coleman aka Cutty Wise on the wire,
3:03 "she" ??
I have a set of those glasses, Norlan glasses.
What is a Molcan? And these are Moclans.......
4 years on and it still says "Molcan"
F the Moylan culture I swear 😂😂😂
They live next door to me for a while . I believe they should have dated longer before they made the big lunge into matrimony
