I just woke up from a dream with a perfect ending for S04 and opening for S05

In the S04 finale, the Orville is in orbit around a planet that Ed is on the surface of when it gets raided by a boarding party of Krill, who capture and abduct the entire crew on their ship, leaving Ed behind planetside. They fly off, leaving the Orville powered down and empty. What's worse, kinetic energy from their engines knocks the Orville into a degrading orbit, slowly falling to the surface of a planet in deep unexplored space, outside of comm range, leaving Ed all alone with no hope of rescue.

In the S05 opener, Ed pilots his shuttle back to the Orville's dock and begins trying to power the ship back on, having to operate the whole thing solo, all while we're listening to his inner monologue as he talks to his Kermit stuffie, telling him about how much work goes into keeping it together, how much so many people put into their mission that he had never really fully appreciated until he had to do it all alone. This episode will explore Ed's inner being, as well as offering a view of his survivor's guilt and realizing that how badly he needs his people. The episode ends when he finally gets the ship running, tracks the Krill's last trajectory and sets off to chase them down. In the final scene, Ed looks over to Kermit with pride and Kermit, now replaced with a cameo by the *actual* Kermit The Frog, tells him "go get em buddy!"

Cause I'm damn well sick of your dog busting out and chasing/charging at my dogs when we're trying to have a walk.

Does anyone else not fit the narrative?

I actually do take joy in being no contact and therefore free from my abusers. It makes me giggle knowing that my dad is probably hurting as bad as he hurt me. I feel nothing but vindication when I think of my mom dying alone. I genuinely love being no contact and feel validation in knowing their pain is justice for the pain they caused me. Am I an awful person?

Blessing of the Animals question

So with the Feast Of St. Francis coming up in October, I plan to bring my dogs to be blessed, but I had a weird question. Would it be possible to take a small vial of water out of each of my aquariums, have the water blessed, and then add it back in so that my fish can have their blessing as well? Since it's not really a good idea to take fish out of their tanks to bring them to church lmao, I figured this might be a good way to make sure they get their blessings too

My dog may be anosmic, now what?

So I've recently learned that my rescue boy Noodle has a very impaired sense of smell. I did a few scent tests and he can't smell things, even strong smells like breakfast sausage, until his nose is an inch or two away from it. I think this might be why he's so nervous and jumpy on walks, because his early warning system when it comes to unexpected people and critters just doesn't work. Does anyone have any experience with this? Noodle pic for payment
