The Orville season 1, episode 9 "Cupid's Dagger"

Written by Liz Heldens, directed by Jamie Babbit.

The Orville is host to two rival species who claim the rights to the same planet. The Union sends an archeologist named Darulio (Rob Lowe) to the Orville to settle the dispute with a forensic analysis of an ancient artifact, not realizing that he has a checkered history with the Captain and Commander. With existing tensions between the two visiting races already running hot, the renewed tensions between Mercer, Grayson and their old acquaintance threaten to shatter an already fragile peace as people on the ship, one by one, start acting out of character.

Originally released: 9 November 2017

It could maybe have been saved by those pheremones merely lowering inhibitions slightly and having them discover new things about themselves in a slightly comedic manner but they wanted to intimate kelly was blameless and just raped everyone instead
